ISIS HiFi muon spectromenter DAQ upgrade

As part of the ongoing enhancement of the HiFi spectrometer at ISIS, Nuclear Instruments integrated the DAQ121—our high-speed, 1 Gsps, 12-bit digitizer—into the data acquisition chain alongside the legacy TDC system. This hybrid configuration enables advanced digital discrimination of PMT signals and real-time pile-up deconvolution, increasing temporal resolution and system flexibility for high-rate muon experiments.

FAMU Experiment @ RIKEN RAL

The FAMU experiment at the RIKEN-RAL muon facility aims to precisely measure the proton Zemach radius through detection of characteristic X-rays from muonic hydrogen. Nuclear Instruments developed custom electronics for the LaBr₃:Ce detectors, including innovative preamplifier circuits and a unique “4-1” SiPM readout architecture. These improvements significantly enhanced time resolution—critical for separating prompt and delayed signals—while maintaining excellent energy resolution in the 100–130 keV range.
