Can I read FADC-based DAQ for HiRes Fly's Eye on EtoBox?

FADC-based DAQ for HiRes Fly's Eye by John H Boyer; Bruce C Knapp; Eric J Mannel; Michal Seman is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.

What is FADC-based DAQ for HiRes Fly's Eye about?

This paper describes a data acquisition system for optical telescopes studying extensive air showers for the High Resolution Fly's Eye Project at Dugway Proving Grounds, Utah. The measurements are based entirely on flash-analogto-digital conversion of phototube signals, digitized continuously at 10 MHz, and stored in a deep (820 ms) pipeline, for deadtimeless readout following a parallel pipeline trigger. The massive parallel processing by digital signal processors and programmable logic devices is distributed site-wide, with 42 telescopes and a central facility linked by optical fiber.

Who reads FADC-based DAQ for HiRes Fly's Eye?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Physics and Astronomy.
