Data acquisition system for the 8π spectrometer: A multidetector array for γ-ray spectroscopy

Abstract

The data acquisition system for the 8π spectrometer, a multidetector array for γ-ray spectroscopy, is described. It is based on CAMAC modules equipped with a fast auxiliary bus in ECL logic. The system has been designed to handle a high rate of events, each with large information content. To offer maximum flexibility for the many types of experiments envisaged, the logic of the data stream to magnetic tape has been made user selectable. This is …
