REDSTORM C++ Builder code for a new DGFRS detection system

TL;DR

This paper introduces REDSTORM, a C++ builder code enabling real-time detection and storage of multi-chain events for the DGFRS system, facilitating the identification of decay chains of superheavy elements.

Contribution

The paper presents a new C++ code that operates with the DGFRS detection system for real-time event detection and storage, including parallel operation with existing digital systems.

Findings

Enabled detection of 13 decay chains of Z=117 nuclei.

Operates with both PIPS and DSSSD detectors.

Allows real-time search for ER-alpha sequences.

Abstract

REal-time Detection and STORage of Multy-chain events Builder C++ code has been designed to operate together with the new DGFRS detection system in FLNR, JINR. It allows to provide event by event storage and real-time search for ER-alpha sequences both for 32 strip position sensitive PIPS detector (CANBERRA NV) or 48x128 strip DSSSD detector (Micron Semiconductors). In the last case it operates in parallel with the ORNL digital system. Namely with this code (PIPS detector branch) it has become possible to detect 13 decay chains of Z=117 nuclei in the reaction 249Bk+48Ca-> 117+3,4n.
