The electronics and data acquisition system for the wire imaging synchrotron radiation detector at the SLC
- Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Menlo Park, CA (USA)

The Stanford Large Collider (SLC) located at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center collides electrons and positrons produced in the linear accelerator pulse by pulse. The authors determine the energy of each beam by measuring the angle of deflection of the beam in the SLC extraction lines. Each extraction line consists of two bending magnets that produce synchrotron radiation, and a spectrometer analyzing magnet that deflects the beam. The authors detect the synchrotron light by using the emission of electrons produced by Compton scattering off Cu-Be wires. The authors detect the {approximately} 180 fC of charge on the wire by using the electronics system described in this paper. They also discuss the performance of the system, including the equivalent noise charge, crosstalk {times} channels, stability and reliability.
