Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors
Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors The challenge: smarter chips in harsher places Particle physics detectors have always pushed electronics to their limits. The next generation of tracking systems and calorimeters will depend critically on dense, intelligent, low power and radiation-hard microelectronics: front-end ASICs that can survive for decades in harsh environments, having their

Scientific data management with Rucio
Scientific data management with Rucio Today's scientific experiments are manifold and diverse in their objectives, size, and workflows. However, one commonality uniting most, if not all, scientific experiments is the creation and analysis of data. Managing these scientific datasets is becoming an increasingly complex and complicated challenge. We have evolved from storing data in single
