A fast, flexible and low cost real time data acquisition system for nuclear physics experiments

Abstract

A system has been developed to permit fast, efficient data collection from a relatively complex nuclear experiment. Incorporated into this system is the communication framework for on-line analysis of the incoming data. The system makes extensive use of readily available low cost Intel based microprocessors. Results from recent measurements of the {sup 16}O({gamma},n) cross section made using tagged photons, performed at previously unachievable collection rates are presented. 6 refs., 6 figs.
