ATLAS Level-0 Muon Barrel Trigger system status and integration tests for Phase-II

In preparation for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), essential upgrades are underway for the ATLAS Level-0 Barrel Muon Trigger system in order to cope with the higher data rates and radiation level. These enhancements involve incorporating a new inner layer of Resistive Plate Chambers detectors (RPCs), and replacing the trigger and readout electronics, using a novel Data Collector and Transmitter (DCT) and new Sector Logic (SL) boards. DCT boards collect and process RPC data, while SL boards execute the trigger algorithm and transmit the muon candidates to the Central Trigger Processor. This paper presents the current status of the Phase-II Muon Barrel Level-0 Trigger system, focusing on the DCT and SL hardware and firmware developments. We detail the design and testing processes. Results from data communication tests and ongoing developments are also discussed.

Abstract

In preparation for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), essential upgrades are underway for the ATLAS Level-0 Barrel Muon Trigger system in order to cope with the higher data rates and radiation level. These enhancements involve incorporating a new inner layer of Resistive Plate Chambers detectors (RPCs), and replacing the trigger and readout electronics, using a novel Data Collector and Transmitter (DCT) and new Sector Logic (SL) boards. DCT boards collect and process RPC data, while SL boards execute the trigger algorithm and transmit the muon candidates to the Central Trigger Processor. This paper presents the current status of the Phase-II Muon Barrel Level-0 Trigger system, focusing on the DCT and SL hardware and firmware developments. We detail the design and testing processes. Results from data communication tests and ongoing developments are also discussed.
