“…The Rutherford/Bohr concept of atomic structure was pleasingly simple but later research revealed a bewildering multiplicity of elementary particles. Recently, however, a 'new physics' has emerged according to which all these particles can be interpreted in terms of only four fundamental ones-two quarks and two leptons. …”

“…A guide-field along the accelerator, typically provided by sets of different types of magnets, ensures the charged particles stay within the transverse boundaries of the beam pipe, near its center, travelling on the wanted trajectory. Accelerating elementary particles, like electrons, or quasi-elementary particles, like protons, to very high energies (GeV range) results their velocity $v$ to be close to speed-of-light $c$ , typically expressed as relative velocity $\beta=v/c\approx 1$ , and any further acceleration manifests in a gain of momentum $p=\gamma m_{0}v$ , with $\gamma=1/\sqrt{1-\beta^{2}}$ being the Lorentz factor and $m_{0}$ being the mass of the particle at rest, 0.511 MeV and 938.26 MeV for electron and proton, respectively. …”

“…The context of the work, described in this document, is the development of electroniccomponents for future high-energy physics experiments.The first part deals with design and evaluation of an electronic device for reading and processingthe signals, created by charged elementary particles in solid state detectors. This device has to workwithin an experimental environment, which imposes very rigorous requirements in terms of signalprocessing speed, noise performance, power dissipation, radiation hardness and size as well as interms of system complexity. …”
