Hands-on Activities
1. Act#1 (1.5h): safety, lab arrangement, components, rules; light source (LED) driven with waveform generator, arduino or analog discovery; various LED wavelength; soldering a circuit for LED (this is to use with MPPC later, so think a bit about design to easily coupling to MPPC (direct or with optical fibers, mimicking the use of the WLS))
2. Act #2 (1.75h) oscilloscope, signal generation (with NIM or function generation); MPPC (a SiPM type) circuit,
3. Act #3 (2.75h): MPPC circuit; soldering, testing signal, pedestal; noise mitigation with Faraday case
4. Act #4 (2.75h): Light tightening; MPPC characteristics (noise rate, gain, supply voltage dependence; timing response); measure the speed of light in the optical fibers if having time (concept of light detection and ranging or LiDAR in short); NIM modules to use: disciminator and scaler
5. Act #5 (2.75h): Work in combination of Scintillator, wavelength shifting fiber and photosensor; concept of muon counter; NIM modules to use: discriminator, scaler, coincidence (and delay if needed)
6. Act #6 (2.75h): Data taking and analysis
7. Act #7 (2.75h): Data taking and analysis
8. Act #8 (2.75h): Data taking and analysis
9. Act #9 (2.75h): Data taking and analysis
