Synchronous High-frequency Distributed Readout For Edge Processing At The Fermilab Main Injector And Recycler

The Main Injector (MI) was commissioned using data acquisition systems developed for the Fermilab Main Ring in the 1980s. New VME-based instrumentation was commissioned in 2006 for beam loss monitors (BLM)[2], which provided a more systematic study of the machine and improved displays of routine operation. However, current projects are demanding more data and at a faster rate from this aging hardware. One such project, Real-time Edge AI for Distributed Systems (READS), requires the high-frequency, low-latency collection of synchronized BLM readings from around the approximately two-mile accelerator complex. Significant work has been done to develop new hardware to monitor the VME backplane and broadcast BLM measurements over Ethernet, while not disrupting the existing operations critical functions of the BLM system. This paper will detail the design, implementation, and testing of this parallel data pathway.

Micromagnet PUF readout using a quantum diamond microscope

A physically unclonable function (PUF) and a method of reading it are provided. The PUF is constituted by a microfabricated array of randomly polarized micromagnets disposed on a substrate. The PUF can be read by creating a magnetization map of the PUF from the signal output of a quantum diamond microscope (QDM) and converting the magnetization map to a numerical sequence.

Anomaly Detection in DUNE FD LArTPC Readouts

We designed and built an AI/ML model to detect anomalies in the DUNE far detector data. The model has been trained on simulated radiological background (rbkg) data, which is the major background for supernova burst neutrinos that we want to detect as anomaly in thios work. The trained model was evaluated on both new samples of radiological backgrounds and supernova burst neutrino events in the elastic scattering and charged current interaction channels. We found that the trained model can successfully identify supernova burst neutrino events as anomalies while identifying radiological backgrounds as nominal events.

Processing inferences derived from event-related potential measures in a monitoring task

Event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from the scalp of subjects as they monitored changing digital readouts for values that went 'out-of-bounds'. Workload was manipulated by varying the number of readouts that were monitored concurrently. The ERPs elicited by changes in the readouts showed long latency positivities that increased in amplitude, not only with the number of readouts monitored, but also with the number of monitored readouts that were 'in danger' of going out-of-bounds. No effects were found due to the number of nonmonitored readouts 'in danger'. This evidence indicates that subjects (1) selectively attended to the monitored readouts and (2) processed the monitored readouts differently as the readouts approached the out-of-bounds levels to which an overt response was required.
