Data acquisition strategies in High Energy Physics: insights from the Tracker sub-detector of CMS for HL-LHC

by Dr Giacomo Fedi (Imperial Colleague London)

Europe/Zurich
Description

The data acquisition system plays an important role in High Energy Physics experiments, responsible for handling significant data volumes that can present challenges for physics research. Within the CMS experiment, a blend of custom-designed and off-the-shelf electronics is employed to capitalize on their individual strengths, and this seminar will provide an overview of this approach. The upcoming new phase of the LHC in 2029, designed for higher luminosity (HL-LHC), necessitates updates to the CMS experiment's sub-detectors to address both the new data collection conditions and the aging of the current detector. This seminar offers insights into the specifics of data acquisition within the new Tracker sub-detector that will be installed as part of the CMS detector for the HL-HLC phase.
