  1. 1. Pulse and hold switching current readout of superconducting quantum circuits

    Author : Jochen Walter; David Haviland; Hans Mooij; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Josephson junction; readout; qubit; detector; frequency dependent damping; quantronium; phase-space; correlation analysis; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Josephson junction qubits are promising candidates for a scalable quantum processor. Such qubits are commonly manipulated by means of sequences of rf-pulses and different methods are used to determine their quantum state. READ MORE

  2. 2. Readout link and control board for the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter upgrade

    Author : Steffen Lothar Muschter; Christian Bohm; Francesco Lanni; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Digital electronics; FPGA; Data acquisition; Detector readout; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the CERN laboratory was designed to study the elementary particles and forces and search for new physics.  Detectors at LHC were designed to observe proton-proton collisions with center of mass energies up to 14 TeV, seven times higher than previously possible.

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis concerns the development and characterisation of X-ray imaging detector systems. “Colour” X-ray imaging opens up new perspectives within the fields of medical X-ray diagnosis and also in industrial X-ray quality control. READ MORE

  4. 4. A Fast Pixelated Thermal-Neutron Detector

    Author : Emil Rofors; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SoNDe; thermal-neutron detector; GS20 scintillator; Li-glass; H12700A MAPMT; position-dependent response; alpha-particle; proton; deuteron; neutron; ESS; SKADI;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the study of a position-sensitive scintillation-based detector called the Solid-State Neutron Detector (SoNDe). SoNDe is being developed for cold- and thermal-neutron detection at the small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) instrument SKADI at the European Spallation Source (ESS), currently under construction in Lund, Sweden.

  5. 5. ATLAS Pixel Detector Readout Integrated Circuits and Data Acquisition

    Author : Veronica Wallängen; Samuel Silverstein; Sara Strandberg; Maurice Garcia-Sciveres; Jacob Wikner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a particle collider built by CERN for testing the predictions of theories within high energy physics, thereby contributing to advancements in our understanding of physical laws. In order to improve the discovery potential of the collider, the LHC will undergo an upgrade to be able to reach luminosities of 5x1034 cm2s-1 and the increased collision rate following the upgrade facilitates the need for a new readout system for the ATLAS experiment at the LHC that meets the challenging demands on low mass, high-speed readout capability and radiation tolerance, something which is especially important for the pixel detector closest to the particle interaction point.
