Title:Data Acquisition Systems for Experimental Nuclear Physics
Speaker:Graham Heyes
Date:Wednesday, April 23, 2008
Time:12:00 noon - 1:30 pm
PlaceCebaf Center L102/104
Abstract: A nuclear physics experiment begins with beam on target and ends with data analysis, a paper in a journal, a PhD or even a Nobel prize. Between the detector and the analysis is the world of data acquisition. It is a specialized field in it's own right. This talk will hopefully provide some explanation of the acronyms, techniques, challenges and what goes on between pressing the "go" and "end" buttons.
