The camera and readout for the Trinity Demonstrator and the EUSO-SPB2 Cherenkov telescope
We developed a modular silicon photomultiplier camera to detect Earth-skimming PeV to EeV tau neutrinos with the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique. We built two cameras, a 256-pixel camera for the Trinity Demonstrator located on Frisco Peak, Utah, and a 512-pixel camera for the Extreme Univers...

Zusammenfassung: | We developed a modular silicon photomultiplier camera to detect Earth-skimming PeV to EeV tau neutrinos with the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique. We built two cameras, a 256-pixel camera for the Trinity Demonstrator located on Frisco Peak, Utah, and a 512-pixel camera for the Extreme Universe Observatory on a Super-Pressure Balloon II (EUSO-SPB2) Cherenkov Telescope. The front-end electronics are based on the Multipurpose Integrated Circuit (eMUSIC) Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs), and the camera signals are sampled and digitized with the 100MS/s and 12-bit ASIC for General Electronics for TPC (AGET) system. Both cameras are liquid-cooled. We detail the camera concept and the results from characterizing the SiPMs, bench testing, and calibrating the two cameras. |
