The Fibre Active Scintillator Target (FAST) experiment is a novel imaging particle detector currently operating in a high-intensity π + beam at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), Villigen, Switzerland. The detector is designed to perform a high precision measurement of the μ + lifetime, in order to determine the Fermi constant, G f , to 1ppm precision. A dedicated second level...
An FPGA based trigger system for an imaging particle detector has been designed and produced. The main capabilities of the system are the recognition of the track pattern of the incoming particles, the calculation of its stopping pixel and the time discrimination of events. The description of the implemented algorithms, the FPGA architecture, the developed hardware and the main operation results are...
