Overview of the MOLLER Experiment Integrating Cherenkov Detector Readout and Front-end Electronics

The proposed MOLLER experiment at Jefferson Laboratory aims to determine the Weak charge of the electron via a measurement of the parity-violating asymmetry (APV ) in electron-electron scattering at 11 GeV. The measurement will determine the Weak mixing angle at low energy to very high precision, competitive with the best collider measurements of the same quantity. The small size of the asymmetry (33 ppb) and the high goal measurement precision (2.3%) requires both, high rate detection of scattered electrons in integration mode, and pulse mode detection for particle tracking. This talk provides an overview of the MOLLER detector requirements, with specific emphasis on the data rates, integration mode sampling scheme, and the required front-end electronics, involving a combination of straight streaming and FPGA based preprocessing.
