ABSTRACT
Resumen Con la finalidad de maximizar las posibilidades experimentales en el estudio de los núcleos exóticos utilizando el haz del sistema "Radioactive Ion Beams in Brasil" (RIBRAS), fue desarrollado un sistema modular de detectores centelleantes orgánicos con buena eficiencia y amplio ángulo sólido, conocido como Pared de Neutrones. La detección de los neutrones emitidos en coincidencia con los fragmentos de reacción incrementa las posibilidades experimentales y constituye una de las técnicas más usadas en el campo de la Astrofísica Nuclear. El obsoleto sistema de adquisición de datos de la Pared de Neutrones debe ser remplazado por un sistema basado en módulos del patrón Versa Module Euro Card (VME). El nuevo esquema será definido para incluir el arreglo de detectores de bandas para partículas cargadas y la Pared de Neutrones con el máximo de eficiencia de adquisición, sin tiempo muerto, con selección de datos y sincronización de eventos. Los módulos digitalizadores garantizan tareas como la supresión de ceros y la saturación en la lectura de la señal. Adicionando tarjetas FPGA (field programmable gate array) a la adquisición de datos se garantiza el procesamiento pre y post-algorítmico de los datos.
Abstract In order to potentiate the experiments for studying the exotic nuclei with Brazil Radioactive Ion Beam (RIBRAS), a modular organic scintillation detector (Neutron Wall), with good efficiency and extended solid angle was developed. The detection of neutrons emitted in coincidence with the reaction fragments increases the experimental possibilities and represents one of the most popular techniques in the Nuclear Astrophysics field. The data acquisition system used for the Neutron Wall is obsolete and should be replaced by Versa Module Euro Card Data Acquisition modules. The new scheme will be designed to include the Strip Array and Neutron Wall detectors with maximum readout efficiency, no dead time, data selection and event synchronization. The digitizer modules provide features like zero suppressed readout and overflow suppression. Zero suppression, once enabled, prevents conversion of value, which is lower than user defined threshold. Adding FPGA (field programmable gate array) cards to data acquisition provides pre- and post-algorithmic processing on data.
ABSTRACT
To achieve fast and accurate analysis of weak current signal of nanopore-based single molecule detection, we designed a real-time adaptive threshold data processing algorithm with data buffering technique and finite impulse response filtering. The system, which is designed based on the data processing algorithm, could realize real-time recognition and analysis of nanopore events during the data recording process. In order to verify the performance of the system, the ideal signals with different noise level (20-100 pA) and recording bandwidth (3 - 100 kHz) was generated. The results showed that the system was stable to analyze the generated signals even at high noise. In addition, the system was also suitable for the data recording conditions of low bandwidth and high sampling rate (250 kHz). The proposed nanopore data processing system was further applied in the Aerolysin nanopore experiment for the detection of poly(dA) 4 molecules. The results showed that the data processing system could be applied in real nanopore recording system with high accuracy and speed.
ABSTRACT
En el presente trabajo se describe el desarrollo de un instrumento para el monitoreo radiológico identificado como Alarma Gamma (GAMAL01). Estos monitores detectan el incremento de la tasa de conteo de la radiación y emiten una alarma cuando esta magnitud sobrepasa un umbral determinado. El umbral para la emisión de la alarma se fija de manera que esta se produzca cuando se considere que la tasa de conteo de la radiación pueda provocar una exposición inaceptable del personal a las radiaciones, de acuerdo a lo establecido por las normas de seguridad radiológica vigentes en el país. La señal de alarma indica la necesidad de realizar la evacuación del personal del sitio afectado. El instrumento consta de dos secciones: una analógica y otra digital
This paper describes the development of an instrument for radiological monitoring, identified as Gamma Alarm (GAMAL01). The instrument monitors the increment of radiation count rate and produces an alarm signal, when the count rate becomes superior to a fixed threshold value. The threshold is fixed to assure that the signal emission will start when the value of the radiation count rate may cause a non acceptable radiological exposition of the personnel, according to the radiological safety regulations existing in the country. Following the signal the personnel must be evacuated from the affected place. The instrument consists of two sections, an analogical section and a digital one
