By watching light from air shower behind the mountain, we may detect high energy ¿ particle that is coming from º¿ . The whole system consists of optics and electronic readout. Electronic readout include MAPMT, Pre-amp and DCM. Finally, DCMs record triggered events and DAQ read and save these data into hard disc through CPCI bus. My study are related to the front-end readout system tests and DAQ (data acquisition system). In this thesis I will introduce how user can use this DAQ system to take data from DCM and how can driver transfer data to user.The electronics test results of Pre-amps and DCMs are also discussed in this thesis.1 Physics Motivation 1 1.1 Neutrinos from Cosmic Ray . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 1.1.1 Introduction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 1.1.2 Sources of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Neutrinos . . . . 2 1.2 NuTel–Cerenkov detector . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 1.2.1 Earth-Skimming method . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 1.2.2 Sensitivity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 2 NuTel apparatus 9 2.1 Introduction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 2.2 Optics System . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11 2.3 Multi-Anode Photo Multiplier Tubes (MAPMT) . . . . . . . . 13 2.4 Pre-amplifier (Pre-amp) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15 2.5 Data Collection Module (DCM) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19 3 NuTelDAQ characteristics 25 3.1 Introduction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 3.2 Hardware . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 3.3 PCI driver and application . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27 3.4 Events from PCI bus . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29 3.5 Event lost rate measurement . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 31 4 Readout tests 35 4.1 Pre-amps’ response with single pulse . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 4.1.1 setting and result . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 4.1.2 conclusion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 48 4.2 Pre-amps’ response with double pulses . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49 4.2.1 method and result . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49 4.2.2 conclusion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 54 4.3 Linearity of ADC . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 55 4.3.1 method and result . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 55 4.3.2 conclusion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 59 4.4 Finding pedestal . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 59 4.4.1 method and result . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 59 4.4.2 conclusion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 65 4.5 Linearity of Pre-amps . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 66 4.5.1 method and result . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 66 5 Conclusion 6914951434 bytesapplication/pdfen-US微中子望遠鏡高能實驗neutrinotelescopehigh energy experiment微中子望遠鏡的前端讀出系統Front-End Readout System of Neutrino Telescopethesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/54616/1/ntu-96-R93222015-1.pdf
