Description of Scientific and Engineering Focus

 

Most generally, my scientific work has been concerned with creating new information processing techniques to deal with the unique requirements of high energy physics and astro-particle physics experiments.  My focus in particular has been work for the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array (AMANDA), which I have been involved with since its inception in the early 1990s.  AMANDA makes use of optical sensors buried deep in Antarctic ice to detect faint light signals caused by interactions of highly relativistic, extraterrestrial neutrinos.  This experimental technique involves the use of a wide range of information technology, including numerical and statistical simulations, embedded systems, device drivers, database applications, and intensively parallel computing for reduction of large datasets.

 

In my work with AMANDA, I have focused on the simulation of particle interactions and detection, the processing and filtering of data for analysis, and on data acquisition and experimental control.  In the past few years, I have been directly involved with the creation and development of a specialized optical sensor known as the Digital Optical Module (DOM).  This technology, tested in AMANDA and chosen for the design of the greatly expanded IceCube detector, uses a custom ASIC for fast digitization of photomultiplier pulses.  It makes use of an embedded CPU and field-programmable logic (FPGA) for acquisition of the data and transmission to the surface.  My work for the DOM has involved low-level software for data acquisition inside the DOM, device driver development for communications hardware (“DOM Hubs”) on the surface, and applications for the collection and processing of data in the DOM Hubs.
