Data Acquisition Systems and Detector Prototypes for DUNE

深层地下中微子实验（DUNE）是下一代中微子观测站，旨在测量中微子区的CP破坏。该实验包括一个从费米实验室开始的高功率中微子束，由两套氩基探测器采样：费米实验室站点上的近探测器复合体和南达科他州SURF站点地下深处的远探测器复合体。DUNE还将接触到各种各样的其他物理学，包括中微子质量排序，大气中微子行为，超新星中微子和中微子截面。RAL小组正在寻找一名学生，与伦敦的皇家霍洛威大学联合，谁将进行研究开发数据采集（DAQ）系统的近，远探测器。DAQ系统是这些探测器的“大脑”，处理传入的数据流并决定记录哪些数据。学生将开发DAQ的控制，配置和监控系统，并在CERN和SLAC的先进原型探测器上使用这些系统，并分析来自这些原型探测器的数据，以评估DAQ的性能并进行物理测量，这些测量将在未来几年内投入DUNE测量。

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation neutrino observatory seeking to measure CP violation in the neutrino sector. The experiment consists of a high-power neutrino beam beginning at Fermilab, which is sampled by two suites of argon-based detectors: the Near Detector complex on the Fermilab site and the Far Detector complex, deep underground at the SURF site in South Dakota. DUNE will also have access to a wide variety of other physics, including the neutrino mass ordering, atmospheric neutrino behavior, supernova neutrinos, and neutrino cross sections.The RAL group is seeking a student, jointly with Royal Holloway University of London, who will carry out research developing the data acquisition (DAQ) system common to the near and far detectors. The DAQ system is the 'brain' of these detectors, processing incoming data streams and making decisions about what data to record. The student will develop the control, configuration, and monitoring systems of the DAQ and exercise these systems at advanced prototype detectors at CERN and SLAC, and analyze the data coming from these prototype detectors both to evaluate the performance of the DAQ and make physics measurements that will feed into DUNE measurements for years to come.
