Data Acquisition and Environmental Monitoring of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
ORAL
Abstract
Low-background non-accelerator experiments have unique requirements for their data acquisition and environmental monitoring. Background signals can easily overwhelm the signals of interest, so events which could contribute to the background must be identified. There is a need to correlate events between detectors and environmental conditions, and data integrity must be maintained. Here, we describe several of the software and hardware techniques achieved by the \textsc{Majorana} Collaboration for the \textsc{Majorana Demonstrator}, such as using the Object-oriented Realtime Control and Acquisition (ORCA) software package.
