Data Acquisition System for Muon Lifetime Experiment

Data Acquisition System for Muon Lifetime Experiment

I designed, developed and deployed a data acquisition (DAQ) system to meet the needsof the "??Lan" nuclear physics experiment. The main goal of the experiment is to measurethe positive muon lifetime to a precision of 1 part per million. This represents more thanan order of magnitude increa...
