Nuclear Medicine is the second imaging techni que after CT\, with more than 35 million procedures per year all around th e world.\n\nThe Positron Emission Tomography (PET) has contributed in a cr ucial way to the Nuclear Medicine growth. In recent years the obtaining of fusion images has been improved using PET-CT hybrid systems that combine the metabolic information of PET image and the morphologic one of CT image s in a single study.\n\nThe 18F-Fludesoxiglucose (FDG) has been the most w idely-used radiopharmaceutical so far\, although some new radiopharmaceuti cals are arising\, being more specific for some pathologies. These will al low an earlier and more accurate diagnosis\, as well as they will enable t he evaluation of the treatment response.\n\nThe number of PET examinations will double in the next 10 years\, with a significant impact of the new r adiopharmaceuticals on Alzheimer's diagnosis. Most of the new tracers will be proprietary products\, with a limited suppliers number.\n\nThe PET rad iopharmaceuticals production requires high investments and facilities with the corresponding radioprotection authorizations\, as well as being in co mpliance with GMPs regulations. Their shelf-life makes it necessary that t heir production be carried out in facilities located in the vicinity of th eir users.\n\nIBA Molecular Spain (IBA) is the Spanish subsidiary of IBA M olecular\, a multinational company dedicated to the development\, producti on and distribution of both PET and SPECT radiopharmaceuticals for their u se in Nuclear Medicine. It is the leading company in Spain in the supply o f these medicinal products.\n\nThe Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) i s a scientific-technical facility dedicated to the interdisciplinary resea rch and it has a cyclotron that provides 18 MeV protons and 9 MeV deuteron s.\n\nIn 2003 IBA and CNA signed a contract that allows the production of several PET radiopharmaceuticals\, as well as the research and development of new ones in their facilities.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/c ontributions/8752/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8752/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Phoswich LaBr/LaCl portable compact detectors DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130625T084500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130625T090000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8751@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Angel Perea Martinez (IEM/CSIC)\nIn the framework of FAIR/R3B for the construction of the CALIFA spectrometer end cap\nThere i s a need of high dynamic range and calorimetric detection of both protons\ nand gamma rays. This cannot be easily achieved with standard scintillator s\, so it is\na field for novel solutions and materials.\n\nOur proposal o f a phoswich LaBr/LaCl configuration is attractive because of the high sto pping\npower and high light yield of these materials\, along with the fact of being optically compatible\n(i.e the latter being transparent to the s cintillation light of the first one). This relaxes the\nneed for completel y stopping the particle to get its energy. In a phoswich configuration (2\ ndifferent crystals shinning on a single PM)\, the different decay times o f both scintillators\nproduce changes in the shape of the light signal.\n\ nFPGA online processing running simple algorithms make possible to reduce this large\nstream of data in real time to a small set of parameters\, inc luding the energy and nature of\nthe particle.\n\nThe compact detector thu s created allows very portable solutions to be deployed in a variety of\ns ituations: homeland security scenarios\, imported goods screening or envi romental\nnatural radiation studies\, among others.\n\nOur current prototy pe is an arrangement of 4 phoswich xtals (2x2cm\, 6+4cm LaBr+LaCl) sampled at\n5 Gigasamples/sec 14bit 34 channels ADC (CAEN 1742). We present the r esults of the last\nprotype test done in Krakow as of March 15th 2013.\n\n https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8751/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8751/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:High performance and compact digitizing developments for the DAQ s ystems of EXOGAM2/NEDA and AGATA nuclear physics experiments DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T151500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T153000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8750@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Vicente González Millán (Departamento de Ingenier ía Electrónica.

Essentially\, a SEE is an undesirable particle dete ction due to parasitic solid state detectors inherent to CMOS structures. Macroscopically\, the detection event shows as a device malfunction. For s everal years we have been doing SEE experiments at CNA\, demonstrating the feasibility of that facility. CNA has "low" energy particle accelerators\ , out of SEE standards. However\, CMOS miniaturization trend increases SEE vulnerability so nowadays the CNA facility can make full SEE studies for nanometric (130 nm and smaller) VLSI technological processes. \nThe result s of our work are now used by companies like Alter Technologies or institu tions like INTA or ESA. As spin off of the experimental research we have d eveloped a new SEE electric emulators\, FTUNSHADES 2\, under ESA contract. FTUNSHADES has dual capabilities: it can localize SEE vulnerabilities in FPGA-emulated CMOS digital designs by electrical fault injection and can w orks\, in the lab\, as SEE monitor (i.e.\, "parasitic" detectors read out electronics). For analog electronics\, and also under ESA contract\, we ar e now developing new AHDL simulation techniques to assess fault injection\ , in order to predict experimental results.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/e vent/744/contributions/8749/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8749/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Innovative vacuum applications?

It begins with ne w customers’ requests\, new challenges\, and one Solutions department.\n \nWhen some quotation request doesn’t have a standard answer\, it goes t o Solutions. It is usually the case in R&D projects. Solutions offers a ta ilor-made concept based on customer requirements\, including implementatio n.

The performance/co st figure of these solutions for the detection of X-rays or ionizing radia tion remains unrivaled over large areas (1m2- 1000's m2). Concerning issue s like time and position accuracy or radio-purity they actually represent the state of art of nowadays technology in many fields of application. For rare event searches (e.g. dark matter\, neutrino-less double beta decay)\ , the combined performance (energy and position accuracy\, low workable th reshold below 0.5keV\, radio-purity) makes them an extremely promising tec hnology\, that has been for instance at the birth of the EU-funded TREX-pr oject currently ongoing in Zaragoza University.\n\nWe will present results from a number of micro-gap architectures\, developed in partnership with several international centers\, obtained at the recently built lab at the Faculty of Science of the University of Zaragoza. In particular\, we will focus on developments towards CAST(CERN)\, NEXT(Canfranc LSC)\, aimed at u ltimate energy and position resolution\, and sensor radiopurity.

Achievements of the Radia collaboration and ongo ing developments. DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T103000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T104500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8746@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: José M. Espino (Department of Atomic\, Molecular an d Nuclear Physics (FAMN)\, University of Seville\, Spain)\nIn complex radi ation therapy treatments with photons\, such as Intensity Modulated Radiat ion Therapy (IMRT)\, dose distribution verification is highly advisable pr ior to real dose delivery to patient. In fact\, the increasing sophisticat ion and complexity of IMRT treatments is a major challenge for Treatment P lanning Systems (TPS)\, which might miscalculate under some circumstances. We have developed a detection system for radiation therapy treatment veri fication based on a single sided silicon strip detector (SSSSD) housed ins ide a cylindrical phantom. This work started in the frame of the project R adia\, a collaboration between the University of Seville\, Instalaciones I nabensa S.A. (a company of Abengoa group)\, CNA and the Virgen Macarena Un iversity Hospital of Seville.\nIn our system\, the detector is placed insi de the cylindrical phantom with the detector plane perpendicular to the sy mmetry axis of the cylinder\, and parallel to the radiation beam axis. Thi s allows to obtain dose maps in axial planes\, which are the most relevant in the process of treatment planning since they correspond\, in general\ , to the orientation of the CT slices of the patient used during such proc ess. This is the main innovation with respect to other recently developed systems\, based on diode and ionization chamber arrays.\nThe cylindrical p hantom is rotated so that data are taken for different relative orientatio ns between the detector strips and the radiation fields. A software has be en developed to operate the rotation of the phantom and to acquire the sig nals from the silicon strip detector. The dose maps are calculated from th e set of data recorded for a certain sequence of relative orientations\, u sing a reconstruction algorithm similar to that of computed tomography. A patent application of this procedure has been submitted to the Spanish Off ice of Patents (expedient nº P201101009). \nPresently we are working on a new prototype\, with these main improvements:\n• A new detector\, fe aturing a special configuration designed in collaboration with the Spanish company ATI Sistemas S.L.\, built by Micron Semiconductor Ltd. (UK). It c onsists of a dual chip 32x32 SSSSD\, mounted back to back and using materi als with densities as close as possible to water density. \n• New ele ctronics and software for phantom rotation control and for data acquisitio n and analysis\, improving sensitivity\, linearity and measurement bandwid th. Its performance is boosted with automated algorithms.\n• A new ph antom\, more versatile than the previous one and with a better control of angular position.\n• A new reconstruction algorithm to obtain the dos e maps.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8746/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8746/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Particle detector developments at Scientifica International DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130625T083000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130625T084500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8745@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Lander Gonzalez Larrea (Scientifica International\, S.L.)\nSCIENTIFICA INTERNACIONAL\, S.L. is a company devoted to the develo pment\, manufacturing and commercialisation of instrumentation equipment f or the science market\, based in Elgoibar\, northern Spain.\nWith experien ce and technical skills in 3 main core technologies\, such as\, precision mechanics\, electronics & signal processing\, and composite materials\, SC IENTIFICA has collaborated with several European scientific facilities and institutions\, like\, ISIS\, CIEMAT\, ESS-Bilbao\, ILL\, HZB and CERN. \n Its main product in the particle detection line is the neutron detector fo r neutron scattering applications.

The basis of these devices is th at the absorbed dose is approximately proportional to the shifts in the th reshold voltage of the MOSFET [2]. \n\nIn our dosimetry system a general p urpose commercial pMOS transistor is used as sensor to detect the ionizing radiation. This implies an important cost reduction. The reader unit impl ements several algorithms that permit to extend the linear range above men tioned [2] and to carry out a thermal compensation [3]. Thanks to these al gorithms\, and it can be seen in table 1\, the resolution of system makes it feasible for in-vivo dosimetry even with the commercial transistor we h ave used [4]. Three groups of four dosimeters were irradiated in a 60Co so urce and in a LINAC with normal incidence with qualities photons of 6 and 18MV.

The proposed device comprises a positron source\, which is placed outside of t he object under study. One of the 511 keV gamma-rays is registered directl y in one detection plane (a position sensitive gamma-ray detector)\, where as the second 511 keV annhilation gamma-ray undergoes a Compton scattering in the object to be imaged\, and is simultaneously detected (in time-coin cidence) by means of a second position and energy sensitive gamma-ray dete ctor (orthogonal to the former detector).\nA proof-of-concept prototype fo r such 3D gamma-ray camera is being developed at IFIC. The primary aim of such device is the spatial characterization of the electrical response of highly-segmented semiconductor germanium detectors. Once characterized\, t hese germanium detectors can be used for high-resolution gamma-ray spectro scopy and nuclear structure studies. However\, provided that the detection sensitivity of the 3D camera is sufficiently high\, one could find anothe r implementations\, such as e.g. non-invasive industrial or geological dia gnostics\, as well as for security inspection of concealed items.\n\n[1] C .

Mientras que los rayos X convencionales atraviesan el cuerpo humano depositando energía conform e pasan\, los iones depositan su energía prácticamente en un punto (el p ico de Bragg). Una vez se conoce la posición del tumor con precisión\, l a hadron-terapia es mucho más conveniente\, en particular en tumores cerc anos a órganos críticos\, puesto que reduce considerablemente la dosis d e radiación en los tejidos sanos que rodean al tumor. La precisión en la deposición de la energía es un reto crucial cuando se tratan órganos e n movimiento así como para adaptar la irradiación conforme el tumor redu ce su tamaño a lo largo del tratamiento. En consecuencia\, el control de calidad y la monitorización in vivo son aspectos esenciales para un resul tado efectivo del tratamiento del cáncer.\n\nCon el fin de mejorar los ú tiles para el control de calidad en terapia hadrónica\, la comisión euro pea aprobó el proyecto ENVISION (European Novel Imaging Systems for Ion T herapy) que trata de proporcionar soluciones para:\nLa monitorización no invasiva en tiempo real\,\nDeterminación de la dosis proporcionada\,\nUn nivel de respuesta rápido para adaptar y corregir el plan de tratamiento\ ,\nRespuesta en tiempo real para órganos en movimiento y \nEstudios de si mulación.\n\nA día de hoy el único método no invasivo “en-haz” imp lementado y probado es la localización de los isótopos emisores de posit rones que se producen durante el tratamiento mediante técnicas PET (Posit ron Emission Tomography). Es lo que se llama “in-beam PET”. Esta técn ica\, aunque funciona\, tiene limitaciones debido a que el anillo PET no e s continuo ya que interacciona con el sistema de distribución del haz en la sala de tratamiento. Esta técnica\, por tanto\, se emplea mayoritaria mente “off-beam” en habitáculos separados una vez termina la terapia\ , con la consiguiente pérdida en el número de desintegraciones registrad as y su impacto adverso en la calidad de la predicción de la dosis y su l ocalización. \n\nUna alternativa es el uso de fotones (“prompt gammas ”) producidos por la interacción del haz de iones con los tejidos. En c ontra de lo que ocurre en el caso de in-beam PET\, esta técnica es nueva y se encuentra en sus fases más tempranas de desarrollo. \n\nUno de los r etos más importantes es la reconstrucción de la trayectoria de los foton es producidos\, que pueden tener energías de hasta unas pocas decenas de MeV\, con el fin de determinar su vértice de producción y\, mediante és te\, la posición del pico de Bragg. El proyecto ENVISION trata de resolve r este problema con la construcción de telescopios Compton. En particular \, nuestro grupo en el IFIC propone el desarrollo de un telescopio Compton formado por varias planos detectores\, cada uno de ellos compuesto por un cristal centelleador continuo de LaBr3 acoplado a matrices de fotomultipl icadores de silicio (SiPMs). El objetivo es tener suficientes planos detec tores como para poder reconstruir la trayectoria del fotón mediante sus i nteracciones Compton en cada uno de los centelleadores sin necesidad de ab sorber totalmente el fotón.\n\nNuestro grupo ha construido un primer prot otipo de un telescopio Compton con planos centelleadores de LaBr3 y de LYS O. Los centelleadores se acoplan a sus correspondientes matrices de SiPMs que se leen por medio de un ASIC. Junto con este sistema se ha desarrollad o también un sistema de adquisición de datos compacto que se comunica co n un ordenador personal vía ethernet para la transmisión de datos y el c ontrol de la adquisición. El rendimiento del prototipo ha sido evaluado e n el laboratorio con fuentes radiactivas de rayos gamma de diferentes ener gías\, hasta 1275 keV y en la línea experimental del ciclotrón del CNA. \n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8737/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8737/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:R&D activities of CIEMAT’s Nuclear Innovation Unit DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T111500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T113000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8736@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Daniel Cano Ott (CIEMAT)\nThe Nuclear Innovation Uni t is a research group devoted to has the mission of contributing to the de velopment of advanced nuclear fuel cycles which will facilitate the nuclea r waste management and improve the sustainability of nuclear fission as an energy source\, including the design of advanced reactors and accelerator driven systems (ADS).\n\nThe main technological capabilities of the group will be presented at the time of the workshop:\n\n- Calculation of com plete electronuclear energy production schemes\, including waste managemen t scenarios with reprocessing and cost estimates.\n- Advanced Monte Car lo simulations with MCNPX and GEANT4 for the design of neutron and γ -ray shielding and facilities with neutron sources.\n- Design and character isation of neutron and γ -ray detectors.\n- Design and construction of digital data acquisition systems.\n\nAn overview of the different R&D pro jects with technological impact in which the research group is involved wi ll be given as well.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/ 8736/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8736/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Imaging the guts: Introducing the Image Science Research developed in the Group IRIS DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T093000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T094500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8735@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Josep F.

We have collaborated in developing and customizing differen t electronics\, gateware (for FPGA based platforms) and low level software \, for different labs for specific purpose applications. We have also coll aborated in the development of a cutting edge timing technology (White Rab bit\, http://www.sevensols.com/whiterabbitsolution/) which allows subnanos econd reliable synchronization at a network of up to 2000 nodes and 10 Kms distances. It allows fine synchronization\, deterministic and reliable co mmunication (with well defined maximum latency which is important for cont rol distributed instrumentation facilities). This technology was successfu lly used in the final Neutrinos experiments (between Gran Sasso and CERN) and is now being considered in other international projects and facilities (such as FAIR at GSI).\nThe different collaborations in which we have par ticipated have been articulated through research projects in which we have been integrated as an industrial partner (subcontracted or partner of the consortium)\, direct subcontracts for specific purpose developments or th rough acquisition of specific purpose electronics that have been designed by the company to match specific requirements of research projects. \nTher e are also different instrumentation teams at research facilities that dev elop their own electronics\, but making them available to wider communitie s (also scientific communities at other institutions) and providing approp riate support is beyond their capabilities or natural competences. Technol ogy based SMEs\, such as Seven Solutions can also play here the “spread out” role\, provided that the source institution supports the first stan dardization and manufacturing efforts. We have also long expertise in open hardware\, and can thus also facilitate the transfer of electronic design s into the open hardware community aiming a more efficient use of the desi gn efforts.\nIndustry for Science is a small\, but very innovative market\ , in which technology based companies such as Seven Solutions may collabor ate at different stages of different instrumentation developments\, and ev aluate long term transfer to wider industrial markets. Around large scale scientific facilities such as CERN or GSI\, collaborate technology based S MEs\, for specific purpose developments. Mutual understanding between scie ntific teams/institutions and technology based companies is crucial for ef ficient collaborations. Furthermore\, when a technology based company beco mes part of the project and participates even at the development stages\, this may facilitate the use of the same or similar technologies beyond the original source. It facilities technology transfer and the SME assumes sp ecific roles (such as manufacturing and support) that are more natural to companies than research institutions.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/7 44/contributions/8730/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8730/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Medidas de Radón Ambiental DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T090000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T091500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8729@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jose Diaz (IFIC)\nI. Introducción\nEl radón libe rado por la series radiactivas naturales de torio y uranio es una de las f uentes de exposición radiactiva de la población más importantes. Des de los años 70 se ha acumulado una cantidad considerable de medidas de a ctividades dosis radiactivas procedentes del radón\, obteniendo como con clusión que las distribuciones estadísticas de dichas medidas satisfac en una ley log-normal\, que implica una probabilidad importante de recibir dosis muy elevadas\, aunque la dosis media sea moderada. Los tres isóto pos radiactivos liberados por las cadenas de torio y uranio son el 222Rn e n la serie de 238U\, el 220Rn en la serie del 232Th y el el 219Rn en la se rie de 235U. A estos dos últimos isótopos se les denomina torón y ac tinón respectivamente. El 222Rn tiene un tiempo de semivida de T1/2 = 3\ ,82 días mientras que el 219Rn tiene una semivida de T1/2 = 3\,96 s y el 220Rn tiene una semivida de T1/2 = 55\,6 s. Las cortas vidas medias del t orón y del actinón tienen como consecuencia que su concentración en aire sean muy bajas\, y se desintegren antes de atravesar las rocas en las que se producen\, siendo despreciable a dosis radiactiva debida a estos i sótopos. Sin embargo el 222Rn\, debido a si tiempo de vida más elevado puede alcanzar concentraciones importantes en el aire y al ser inhalado q ueda atrapado en el cuerpo humano en el que se desintegra α\, produciendo isótopos radiactivos de polonio\, plomo y bismuto hasta llegar al 206Pb \, estable. En lugares cerrados las concentraciones de radón en el aire pueden alcanzar valores de varios miles de Bq/m3\, que corresponde a dosis de decenas de mSv al año\, por lo que constituye un factor de exposicio ́n radiactiva importante que entraña riesgos asociados. Para exposicio ́n a largo término a concentraciones superiores a 200 Bq/cm3 existen ev idencias de riesgos de cáncer de pulmón. Por ello es necesario monitor izar la concentración de Rn en lugares cerrados\, tales como cuevas\, so ́tanos\, bodegas a fin de evaluar los riesgos radiactivos y tomar las med idas pertinentes.\nII. Obligación legal de monitorizar el radón\nEl Real Decreto 1439/2010 obliga a los titulares de actividades laborales en las que existan fuentes de radiación que incluyen los siguientes lugare s de trabajo:\n\n1)Establecimientos termales. \n2)Cuevas\, galerías y mi nas.\n3) Instalaciones donde se almacenan y tratan aguas de origen subterr áneo.\n4) Lugares de trabajo subterráneos en general.\n5) Lugares de t rabajo en zonas conocidas por sus valores elevados de radón.\n\nIII-Serv icios prestados por el Laboratorio de Radiactividad Am- biental de la Univ ersidad de Valencia\n\nEl Laboratorio de Radiactividad Ambiental de la Uni versidad de Valencia posee una amplia experiencia en la realización de l as medidas cumpliendo con los procedimientos establecidos por el Consejo d e Seguridad Nuclear (CSN) en la instrucción IS-33 del 21 de Diciembre de 2011.

Universidad de Sevilla (Instituto de Microelectrónica de Sevilla – IMSE/CNM))\nAdv anced societies require strong universities and research centres as well a s strong industries. Experience\ntells us that the best universities are u sually located at countries that made a continued bid for industrial\nlead ership. And this is not only valid for applied science and technology\, bu t for basic science as well. While\ncountries with limited industrial deve lopment may punctually be competitive on basic science\, long term\ncompet itiveness cannot be sustained without a companion\, strong industrial deve lopment. On the one hand\,\nmodern science benefits from industrial challe nges. On the other hand\, making significant advances in modern\nscience t ypically require huge investments which are hardly feasible for societies with un-healthy economies.\nEffective university-industry cooperation requ ires that the two main characters recognize and respect mutually\,\nand th at they are ready to collaborate in the right terms. University should not be contemplated by industry as a\nsource of cheap labor. Replicating the existing art by embedding it into products\, can be an eventual requisite\ nfor collaboration\, but should not be the primary mission of university. Neither the primary mission of industry\nis undertaking risky research end eavors with uncertain roads to marketable products. Just to mention an\nex ample\, R&D departments on prime line techno companies usually set around three-years latency for new\ntechniques to become marketable.\nSpanish uni versities and research centers are today producing excellently educated Ph Ds who compete worldwide.\nThey do not have any problem to find well remun erated\, challenging jobs abroad. And many of them are\nleaving\, thus und ermining our system of science and technology. We all have the responsibil ity of creating\nopportunities for these people\, beyond staying at the ce nters were they were educated. It is clear that\nuniversities and research centers should offer opportunities for some PhDs to renew and enhance the ir staff.\nBut\, besides the education of future researchers and professor s\, the purpose of PhD programs should be to\neducate people to work at te chnological industries\, thus enriching our industrial issue and helping t o build a\ntechnologically competitive society. The other way around\, ind ustries should be aware that their\ncompetiveness will significantly incre ase by incorporating PhDs to their teams.\nIn 2004\, and based on the know ledge devised after many years by a research group of the University of Se ville\nand the IMSE-CNM\, myself and some colleagues started the company I nnovaciones Microelectrónicas S.L.\n(AnaFocus) in Seville. Todays\, this company employs some 50 engineers out of which 20% are PhDs.\nAnaFocus act ivities are in the field of smart CMOS optical sensors. CMOS imagers have evolved during the\nlast two decades to dominate the market of area imager s\, with more than 90% of the total share. This evolution\nhas been basica lly fueled by consumer applications (mostly cell phones) with the prevalen t trends of\ndecreasing the pixel pitch and with most relevant challenges focused on the design and optimization of the\nphoto-sensor devices themse lves. Although cell phones will remain the dominant applications for CMOS\ nimagers\, the market volume for other applications (such as machine visio n\, surveillance\, military applications\,\nX-ray imagers\, medical\, etc. ) is forecasted to reach some 0.7billion units in 2015. For many of these\ napplications image resolution\, although undoubtedly important\, must be complemented with other features\nsuch as speed and smartness. For instanc e\, sensors intended for surveillance applications should be capable to\na nalyze complex spatial-temporal scenes and combine high-quality image reco rding of significant events with\nhigh-speed decision making. Just to ment ion another example\, scientific applications call for the smart\nselectio n of salient points and region-of-interests and for the ultra-high-speed d ownloading of the so selected\nareas. Finally\, machine vision sensors (em ployed for instance for inspection) require image content analysis\nand de cision making to be made with largest possible throughput. All these featu res require the incorporation\nof processing circuitry together with the p hoto-sensing and readout circuitry themselves and define the\ncategory of the so-called smart-cameras-on-chip.\nIn this talk I will briefly talk abo ut the AnaFocus experience and will refer to new opportunities which may\n arise for technology transfer on CMOS imaging and more specifically on the use of CMOS single photon\navalanche diodes.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es /event/744/contributions/8725/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8725/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Presentacion de Sedecal DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T101500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T103000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8723@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Juan Manuel Arco Casanova (Sedecal)\nEn el año 1994 se fundó\, con capital íntegramente español\, la empresa Sociedad Espa ñola de Electromedicina y Calidad\, S.A\; SEDECAL.

At the same time\, a large number of signals (usually in excess of 100)\nmust be routed out of the chamber to the preamplifiers si tting outside.\n\nTraditionally this has been done with coaxial feedthroug hs\, but they introduce several problems of\ntheir own: sealing o-rings ar e prone to leaks and the solderings usually get brittle after several\nuse s\, leading to shortcuts or missing channels. Besides\, placement of the d etectors is also\ncompromised as the bulky of 32+ pole cables (plus jacket ) put unwanted stresses on them. Achieving\nthe required position precisio n for the detectors is sometimes also hard. \n\nWe present several related solutions to those problems using Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) both for\ nplacement and feedthrough. Use of multilayered PCBs allows for large impr ovement in feedthrough\ndensity (taken as number of signals fed-through pe r unit area)\, usually several times the achieved\nwith the standard coaxi al feedthroughs\, at a fraction of the cost. In an alternative design\, th e use\nof PCBs all the way to the preamp\, minimizes both the cable use an d the number of connectors\,\nrestricting them only to the inner part of t he chamber\, where they are effectively isolated from\nRF noise. Signals c ome out shielded by ground planes all the way to the preamp.\n\nPlacement is also efectively achieved by plugging the detectors directly on a card. Using a two cards\nstack arrangement\, different setups can be achieved by switching cards without altering the preamp\nlayout and calibrations.\n\n We've succesfully tested a chamber design for 11Be experiment at TRIUMF (C anada)\, and developed a\nsecond chamber for an incoming experiment at Jyv askyla (Finland). Both designs are presented in\nthe current talk.\n\nhttp s://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8717/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8717/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:New irradiation facilities for components testing at the CNA DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T140000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130624T141500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260316T144556Z UID:indico-contribution-744-8715@indico.ific.uv.es DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gema Muñiz (Centro Nacional de Aceleradores)\nThe r eliability of a device under radiation can be studied\, among others\, bas ed on the eventual impact of a particle (Single Event Effects\, SEEs) or a ccording to a given dose of radiation accumulated (Total Ionization Dose T ID). In the last years\, the National Centre for Accelerators (CNA) has de veloped part of its own research studying the production of circuit failur es "in vivo" due to different particles radiation\, varying the energy and fluence. Starting up in the framework of CEIDES Project\, subproject of * RENASER +. \n\nIn this work\, we will present the new capabilities of the CNA to perform components irradiation testing. Thanks to its status as ICT S\, the CNA has installed one gamma radiation equipment for research\, mod el Gammabeam ® X200 (GBX200) Best Theratronics company. The source instal led in the irradiator of this Centre\, with an initial activity of 434 TBq (11\,725 Ci)\, has become the most active in our Country. This will encou rage photon irradiation studies\, complementing the research in particles irradiation developed in the 3 MV tandem and cyclotron accelerators. \n\nT he new facility is available for use by the whole scientific community and companies interested in different fields of application. At first\, the l aboratory set-up is being done together with the company ALTER Technology (Member of TÜV NORD) within the RADLAB project\, which is associated to I NNPACTO scientific program and funding by MINECO. The primary objective is to perform irradiation tests of total dose on electronic devices for aero space application. Besides aerospace\, the facility is intended to use for applications in High Energy Physics\, Materials Science\, Biomedical or i onizing radiation metrology.\n\nThe RADLAB project also involves the start ing up of a neutron irradiation facility to study different SEEs in electr onic devices. The energy spectrum of the atmospheric neutrons ranges over more than 10 orders of magnitude but the main focus is on the high energy end (>10 MeV). These neutrons cause most of the SEE in microelectronics. I n particular\, it has been shown that atmospheric neutron SEU and SEFI cro ss-sections from 14 MeV neutrons are within \n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/ event/744/contributions/8715/ LOCATION:Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA) URL:https://indico.ific.uv.es/event/744/contributions/8715/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
