Real-Time Wiener Deconvolution for feature reconstruction in JUNO

Le résumé fourni par la source

In particle physics, experiments generate substantial amounts of data that can be difficult to process without preliminary scaling. To avoid losing potentially crucial data, experimental collaborations are studying novel techniques for real-time data processing to extract features for further physics analysis. A common approach, especially in neutrino physics, is to use FPGAs for data acquisition and pre-processing. This paper presents an advanced Real-Time Wiener deconvolution algorithm designed to leverage the processing capabilities of the FPGA integrated into the readout boards of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). The goal is to enable real-time reconstruction of the signal generated by photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) when neutrino interactions are detected. By exploiting online reconstruction of the signal generated by PMTs, we expect to improve the detection of low-energy depositions, such as those produced by transient astrophysical phenomena. These depositions are usually not saved because of the significant background that affects the low end of the energy spectrum, which would result in a large trigger rate, hence a large amount of data required for storage. This paper presents the features of the algorithm, including its ability to manage high-throughput data streams with minimal latency, adaptability, and resilience in discerning the characteristics of input data. Performance is evaluated on a JUNO electronic board. This study further demonstrates the potential of FPGA-based solutions for neutrino physics.
