20th Rencontres du Vietnam

3rd Hardware Camp for Fast and Low-Light detection

Date: Mar. 03 - 09, 2024

Location: ICISE center, Quy Nhon, Vietnam

Here, "fast" refers to nanoseconds, and "low-light" refers to a few to hundreds of photoelectrons. The goal is to give students hands-on experience with the single photo-resolving photomultiplier (siPM and PMT), plastic scintillator, light source, electronic, and data acquisition (DAQ) used in particle and nuclear physics experiments.

This is the 3rd hardware camp in the series. The previous hardware camps can be found at 2022 and 2023

Hardwares to explore

What do we have for the camp: Silicon-based photomultiplier (siPM; multiple types; power supply and circuit to work with); light source (LED; LED driver; and cosmic rays); plastic scintillator (various sizes); wavelength shifting fiber; NIM electronic module (amplifier, discriminator, coincidence, scaler, ...) to manipulate the analog signals; oscilloscope; fast analog-to-digital converter (ADC); optical components (fiber splitter, diffuser..) and other additional components. Following are few snapshots.

Program

Students are expected to check in the hotel on Mar. 3 (Sun.), 2024. The hardware camp is expected to finish by 3pm (GMT+7) on Mar. 9th (Sat.), 2024

The primary goal is to provide students with hands-on experience with basic particle and nuclear physics hardware as well as data analysis software. This will also serve as a forum for those with an interest in this type of hardware and techniques.
