The Pixel Fast-Or Signal for the ALICE Trigger in Proton-Proton Collisions

The silicon pixel detector of the ALICE experiment at LHC comprises the two innermost layers of the inner tracking system of the apparatus. It contains 1200 readout chips, each of them corresponding to a 8192 pixel matrix. The single chip outputs a digital Fast-OR signal which is active whenever at...

description The silicon pixel detector of the ALICE experiment at LHC comprises the two innermost layers of the inner tracking system of the apparatus. It contains 1200 readout chips, each of them corresponding to a 8192 pixel matrix. The single chip outputs a digital Fast-OR signal which is active whenever at least one of the pixels in the matrix records a hit. The 1200 Fast-OR output signals can be used to implement a unique triggering capability: few details on the pixel trigger system and some of the possible applications for p-p collisions are presented.
