摘要

The AMS-02 experiment has been installed in May 2011 on the international space station (ISS) where it will measure, with an unprecedented accuracy, cosmic rays up to the TeV energy region for several years. The AMS-02 time of flight (TOF) and the anti-coincide counters (ACC) sub-detectors provide respectively the fast trigger and the veto for the data taking to the experiment. The TOF measures the particle crossing time and the absolute charge with very high precision and provides the fast trigger to AMS-02, whereas the ACC detects and vetoes particles which enter the AMS-02 volume from outside of the main detector acceptance. The electronics of the AMS-02 TOF and ACC sub-detectors have been designed to operate in space for a very long time, in extreme conditions and without any human intervention. In this paper the main design concepts of the TOF-ACC electronics, the space qualification tests and the performance are presented. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

FPGA in the Loop Implementation for Observer Sliding Mode Control of DFIG-Generators for Wind Turbines

Houda El Alami, Badre Bossoufi, Saad Motahhir, Eman H. Alkhammash, Mehedi Masud, Mohammed Karim, Mohammed Taoussi, Manale Bouderbala, Mouna Lamnadi, Mohammed El Mahfoud

Summary: This paper presents a new contribution of the nonlinear control technique in harnessing electrical energy in a wind energy system. The proposed model uses the nonlinear sliding mode technique to control the power of the DFIG-Generator, which is connected to the power grid via two converters. The model is validated through tracking and robustness tests using real wind speed. The control system is developed using Matlab/Simulink, and the FPGA in the Loop technique is employed to design the DFIG model. Through co-simulation, the proposed model demonstrates high efficiency in terms of speed and robustness, with a THD rate of 0.95, and the sliding mode controller shows significant improvement in the quality of energy produced by the wind system.

A Physical Transmitter Implementation of a Quadrature Space Shift Keying MIMO System

Omar Hiari, Raed Mesleh, Abdullah Alkhatib

Summary: Quadrature space shift keying (QSSK) is a variant of space modulation techniques that strictly transmits spatial symbols using two orthogonal unmodulated carriers. This brief presents a 2x2 MIMO implementation of a QSSK system using commercial-off-the-shelf RF-switches, showing significant enhancement compared to standard 802.11n 2x2 MIMO implementation and confirming an accurate match with existing QSSK Monte Carlo simulation results over a Rician fading channel. This implementation is seen as a crucial step towards commercial deployments of quadrature space modulation techniques.

Space charge formation in the high purity semi-insulating bulk 4H-silicon carbide

E. Belas, M. Betusiak, R. Grill, P. Praus, M. Brynza, J. Pipek, P. Moravec

Summary: We investigated carrier transport and space charge formation in high-purity semi-insulating 4H-SiC bulk single crystals. Using the Laser-induced Transient Current Technique, we observed anomalous short current waveform oscillations caused by very short carrier lifetimes. Through detailed analysis of the current waveform and collected charge, we concluded that the electron mobility decreases with increasing electric field. We also observed the blocking character of prepared Au contacts, inducing electron depletion and positive space charge formation. Our findings provide a theoretical model that describes the observed phenomena well.

HV GEOMETRY FOR SIGNAL COMPARISON

Ruiyu Han, Dejan Slepcev, Yunan Yang

Summary: In this study, we explore a Riemannian geometry on the space of signals to compare and interpolate signals. The metric allows for discontinuous signals and measures both horizontal and vertical deformations. It also accommodates signed signals, which overcomes a major drawback of optimal transportation-based metrics in signal processing. We characterize the metric properties of the signal space, establish the regularity and stability of geodesics, and propose an efficient numerical scheme to compute them. Experimental results further demonstrate the nature of the metric.

Kun Hu, Wenlong Li, Yuying Li, Changyu Li, Chengguang Zhu, Lin Yuan, Peng Miao

Summary: A novel charge readout method based on 1-bit sigma delta modulation has been developed, which can achieve Charge-to-Digital Conversion (QDC) directly. This method uses an amplifier and an FPGA instead of traditional Front End Electronics (FEE) for radiation detectors. Improvements have been made to extend its application for new radiation detectors. A prototype of a 32-channel readout electronics has been developed to evaluate the improved method.

Topology-Aware Matrix Partitioning Method for FPGA Real-Time Simulation of Power Electronics Systems

Han Xu, Jialin Zheng, Yangbin Zeng, Weicheng Liu, Fuhai Zhao, Chunhui Qu, Zhengming Zhao

Summary: This article introduces a topology-aware matrix partitioning (TA-MP) method for accurate real-time simulation in high-frequency applications. The method uses an implicit numerical algorithm to ensure stability and employs iterative methods to solve implicit equations. By partitioning the PES matrix into blocks with topological meanings and constructing a constant iterative matrix using its constant diagonal blocks, the TA-MP method bypasses the limitations of using iterative methods in real-time simulations. The method eliminates the need to store inverse matrices and only requires matrix-vector multiplications, making it efficient on FPGA.

Summary: The study reveals the properties of sodium and aluminum cosmic rays, showing that they belong to a distinct cosmic ray group along with nitrogen. Like nitrogen, the sodium and aluminum fluxes can be separated into primary and secondary cosmic ray components. The primary component becomes dominant at higher rigidities for all three elements.

Summary: This study presents a precision measurement of daily proton fluxes in cosmic rays from May 20, 2011 to October 29, 2019 based on data collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer aboard the International Space Station. The proton fluxes exhibit variations on multiple time scales, with recurrent flux variations of 27 days observed from 2014 to 2018, and shorter periods of 9 days and 13.5 days observed in 2016. The strength of these periodicities changes with time and rigidity, with unexpected increases in strength up to certain rigidities followed by decreases as rigidity further increases.

Summary: High-energy, long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can be exceptionally bright when they happen in the close-by universe, such as the recent GRB221009A with a redshift of 0.152. This event, observed by many gamma-ray space experiments, was accompanied by sudden electron flux changes measured by the HEPP-L charged particle detector on a satellite orbiting over Europe. The observed electron flux closely matched the time dependence of the photon flux associated with the main emission of the GRB.

Reduction of light output of plastic scintillator tiles during irradiation at cold temperatures and in low-oxygen environments

B. Kronheim, A. Belloni, T. K. Edberg, S. C. Eno, C. Howe, C. Palmer, C. Papageorgakis, M. Paranjpe, S. Sriram

Summary: This paper presents measurements of the relative decrease of light output during irradiation of small plastic scintillator tiles read out by silicon photomultipliers. The study found substantial temporary damage during low-temperature irradiation, regardless of oxygen concentration and wrapping material. The wrapping material had an impact on the relative light loss, with the 3M(TM) Enhanced Specular Reflector Film showing the largest loss. The light loss was less at warmer temperatures and similar to that in standard atmosphere with 3% oxygen concentration. Evidence of a plateau in the radical density was seen for the data at 0 degrees C.
