Upgrade of the ALICE Readout & Trigger System

ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is preparing a major upgrade of its experimental apparatus, planned for installation in the second long LHC shutdown (LS2) in the years 2018-2019. These plans are presented in the ALICE Upgrade Letter of Intent submitted to the LHCC in September 2012. This do...

description ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is preparing a major upgrade of its experimental apparatus, planned for installation in the second long LHC shutdown (LS2) in the years 2018-2019. These plans are presented in the ALICE Upgrade Letter of Intent submitted to the LHCC in September 2012. This document describes the overall readout and trigger architecture of the upgrade, the radiation environment, as well as the common electronics projects, specifically the SAMPA ASIC and the Common Readout Unit. In addition the document discusses the upgrade plans for the following ALICE subdetectors: Muon Tracking Chambers (MCH), Muon Identifier (MID), Transition Radiation Detector (TDR), Time of Flight Detector (TOF), Fast Interaction Trigger (FIT) and Zero Degree Calorimeter (ZDC). The inclusion of the Electromagentic Calorimeter (EMC), Photon Spectrometer (PHO), High Momentum Particle identifier (HMP) and ALICE Cosmic ray detector (ACO) into the upgrade architecture is discussed as well.
