Latest Frontier Technology and Design of the ATLAS Calorimeter Trigger Board Dedicated to Jet Identification for the LHC Run 3
To cope with the enhanced luminosity of the beam delivered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2020, the “A Toroidal LHC ApparatuS” (ATLAS) experiment has planned a major upgrade. As part of this, the trigger at Level1 based on calorimeter data will be upgraded to exploit fine-granularity readout using a new system of Feature Extractors, which each use different physics objects for the trigger selection. The article focusses on the jet Feature EXtractor (jFEX) prototype, one of the three types of Feature Extractors. Up to 2 TB/s have to be processed to provide jet identification (including large area jets) and measurements of global variables within few hundred nanoseconds latency budget.…
Design and testing of the high speed signal densely populated ATLAS calorimeter trigger board dedicate to jet identification
Abstract—The ATLAS experiment has planned a major upgrade in view of the enhanced luminosity of the beam delivered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2021. As part of this, the trigger at Level-1 based on calorimeter data will be upgraded to exploit fine-granularity readout using a new system of Feature Extractors (three in total), which each uses different physics objects for the trigger selection. The contribution focusses on the jet Feature EXtractor (jFEX) prototype. Up to a data volume of 2 TB/s has to be processed to provide jet identification (including large area jets) and measurements of global variables within few hundred nanoseconds latency budget. Such requirements translate …
