From: "Terwort, Mark" To: Status: R X-Status: X-Keywords: Please return to : Olaf Behnke ZEUS/F1 01b/260 Tel. 3854 or email to : obehnke@mail.desy.de =20 Request for a DESY Summer Student in 2011 --------------------------------------------------------------- Name : Mark Terwort email : mark.terwort@desy.de Tel : 4291 Room : 1e.537 DESY-Group/Experiment : FLC/CALICE/AHCAL ---------------------------------------------------------------- =20 Short description of the project the student should work on : The CALICE collaboration is developing an engineering prototype of the analogue hadronic calorimeter. The goal is to build a full active layer based on scintillating tiles with SiPM readout and fully integrated front-end electronics. The full data aquisition system has to be setup and tested. The student performs several tests of the corresponding sub-components, such as ASIC and tiles tests. Once the sub-components are integrated to full HCAL base units, he/she participates in the operation, calibration and possibly beam tests. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Physics / Computing/ Engineering Content of the project : The work to be done will mostly contain laboratory work, such as measurements in the electronics laboratory and possibly beam tests at DESY. Additionally the data has to be analysed, which includes basic programming with ROOT. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Qualifications expected from the student ( Computing,...) : Basic C++/ROOT experience is highly appreciated. Additional experience with Labview or similar programs, as well as fundamental electronics knowledge is helpful. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Other remarks :=20 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Supervisor(s) during the project (19/07/10 - 8/09/10) : =20 Name: Tel: email : Mark Terwort 4291 mark.terwort@desy.de
