CRIB DAQ

CRIB users have two options for the DAQ.

Bring their own data acquisition system.
Use CRIB DAQ.

If you take the second option, Babarl DAQ will be used, and the data are recorded in the RIKEN data format (RDF).

See following sites for details:

A useful page describing Babarl DAQ and ANAPAW in English. (Not all are useful for CRIB, as it was written for the experiments in Heavy Ion Laboratory of RIKEN):

The babarl DAQ reads data from CAMAC and VME modules, and stores the data as an rdf file onto two HDD drives simultaneously.

The secondary beam tuning is done by CRIB DAQ, anyway.

GEM-MSTPC DAQ

The DAQ for GEM-MSTPC measurement was independently built, and runs at E7 room. The data are stored in "RIDF" format. The analysis can be performed by CERN ROOT. (See "crabat" at Daid's page).

Analysis

ANAPAW is an extension of PAW for the experiments at RIKEN. We can make online/offline analyses using it, from the rdf-formatted data. A PC with ANAPAW for the online analysis is available at J1. See the following for details.
