Abstract

In the PANDA experiment of the FAIR project, it is proposed to use internal targets based on the hydrogen isotopes that provide a monodisperse regime of flow generation of solid spherical pellets with the diameter from 15–40 µm with the frequency from several tens of to several hundred kilohertz. The process for generating the pellets in such facilities includes the cooling, liquefying, and disintegration into drops of the liquid hydrogen jet directed vertically downwards; freezing of the jet when expiring with acceleration into vacuum; and its transport through the vacuum path into the region of interaction with the antiproton beam. For the effective control of the systems of the setup and for the adjustment of generation of pellets, an automatization and control system is developed combining the devices for measurement and control of pellet parameters (temperature, pressure, hydrogen flow, and piezoelectric generator frequency) and the optical diagnostics in a unified computational network. For data exchange between the devices, the TCP/IP Sockets and Modbus TCP protocols are used.
