A Prototype Scintillator Real-Time Beam Monitor for Ultra-high Dose Rate Radiotherapy. Open
The FBSM is designed to provide real-time beam profile monitoring over a large active area without significantly degrading the beam quality. A prototype device has been staged in particle beams at currents of single particles up to FLASH l…
A prototype scintillator real‐time beam monitor for ultra‐high dose rate radiotherapy Open
Background FLASH Radiotherapy (RT) is an emergent cancer RT modality where an entire therapeutic dose is delivered at more than 1000 times higher dose rate than conventional RT. For clinical trials to be conducted safely, a precise and fas…
Search for Rare Processes: Mu2e and KOTO Open
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics has been very successful in describing the fundamental forces, the properties of elementary particles, and predicting particles prior to their discovery, for example the top quark and the Higgs b…
A Prototype Scintillator Real-Time Beam Monitor for Ultra-high Dose Rate Radiotherapy Open
FLASH Radiotherapy (RT) is a potentially new cancer radiotherapy technique where an entire therapeutic dose is delivered in about 0.1 s and at ~1000 times higher dose rate than in conventional RT. For clinical trials to be conducted safely…

Final Report for Experimental Study of the Rare Neutral-Kaon Decays at J-PARC Open
Our proposal was to replace the L2 system, which is currently built in VME format, with new RCE Platform Technology (RPT) boards built by SLAC as part of a DoE supported R&D project.

Final Report for KOTO Trigger and DAQ Upgrade Open
Our proposal was a comprehensive upgrade to the Data Acquisition System and Level 2 Trigger of the KOTO experiment which included: an increase in the number of channels processed due to the construction of a new inner main barrel; an incre…

Upgrades of the Data Acquisition System for the KOTO Experiment Open
The KOTO data acquisition system (DAQ) collects detector PMT waveform signals and saves digitized events to permanent storage using frontend ADC modules, two levels of hardware triggers, and a computing farm. The KOTO DAQ system ran stably…

Long-lived neutral-kaon flux measurement for the KOTO experiment Open
The KOTO(K0 at Tokai) experiment aims to observe the CP-violating rare decay KL → π0νν¯ over bar by using a long-lived neutral-kaon beam produced by the 30 GeV proton beam at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex. The KL flux is an…
