  1. 106. VIRGO and the gravitational interferometry
    Maddalena Mantovani (EGO)
    08/09/2022, 16:00

    The Advanced Virgo detector is a long scale enhanced Michelson interferometer placed in Italy, close to Pisa, with the aim of detecting gravitational waves from astronomical sources.
    The Advanced Virgo interferometer has detected, together with the LIGO interferometers located in USA, an impressive collection of gravitational waves emissions in the last observation runs O2 and O3. During the...

  2. 93. New measurements on an improved 3" Hamamatsu photomultiplier for the KM3NeT Neutrino Telescope
    Andreino Simonelli (INFN Napoli)
    08/09/2022, 16:18

    The KM3NeT experiment is a neutrino telescope which makes use of photomultiplier tubes to detect the Cherenkov radiation emitted by charged particles.
    The first interaction of this light with the detector occurs at the photocathodes of the photomultiplier tubes, is then of primary importance to have the most complete characterization of these elements.
    An improved version of the former...

  3. 19. The multi-PMT optical module of KM3NeT
    Dr Immacolata Carmen Rea (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

    Presenter: Immacolata Carmen Rea (INFN) on behalf of KM3NeT Collaboration

    Abtract:
    For the first time in neutrino telescopes, the optical module of KM3NeT has 31 small photomultipliers instead of the traditional one large-dimension photomultiplier, as in other neutrino telescopes. Also, the size of the photocathode area in the module is unprecedented.
    It is about the same as three...

  4. 37. The KM3NeT data acquisition system - Status and evolution
    Tommaso Chiarusi (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
    08/09/2022, 16:54

    In this contribution, we present the DAQ system of the KM3NeT neutrino telescopes, ARCA, and ORCA, already operating while under construction, at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.
    The system has to deal with a hardware-triggerless streaming readout of the optical modules in the telescopes. The throughput ranges from 20 Gbps up to hundreds of Gbps, scaling with the size of the detectors....

  5. 30. Scalable solutions for the Control Unit of the KM3NeT DAQ system
    Cristiano Bozza (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
    08/09/2022, 17:12

    The neutrino telescopes of KM3NeT are experiencing an exciting phase of quick growth, and will scale up the number of detection units of the current configuration by a factor between 10 and 25 in the coming years. In addition, the telescopes are becoming less homogeneous with new versions of optical modules running new versions of firmware and new instrumentation for calibration introduced in...
