摘要
We describe the technical design and show results of first measurements of a network based on the Timepix3 and the Katherine readout (with Gigabit Ethernet interface) installed in the ATLAS cavern in the LHC in January 2018. The network consists of four Timepix3 detectors, arranged in two two-layer telescopes. All detectors in the network are synchronized with each other and the LHC orbit clock. The technical solution and the concept of the project are described in details. Since the radiation field inside ATLAS is rather harsh, only the detector units (sensors with power supplies) of the system are placed in the cavern. The detectors are connected to the readout electronics (situated in a rack room with radiation levels comparable to the natural background radiation) by 80 m long cables. The technical design was tested for distances up to 120 m. First measurements are presented, which demonstrate the capabilities of the ATLAS-TPX3 network.
