Description
The Department of Energy, through Brookhaven Science Associates, is seeking quotes for a complete Ultra‑High Vacuum (UHV) compatible hybrid pixel detector system to be installed on the Booster Polarimeter at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The system must meet stringent vacuum (≤ 5 × 10⁻⁹ mbar), bake‑out (≥ 80 °C), and performance requirements (minimum active area ≈ 28 mm × 24 mm, data‑rate ≥ 1 MHz per chip, external trigger/clock, full software control). The vendor may propose equivalent read‑out hardware and analysis software, provided they meet the functional specifications. Deliverables include the detector hardware, read‑out electronics, control software, and a test report confirming UHV compatibility. The contract will be awarded to the responsive, technically acceptable quote.
• UHV compatible hybrid pixel detector (TimePix3/4 or equivalent)
• Minimum active area 28 mm × 24 mm, fit within CF100 flange
• Vacuum level ≤ 5 × 10⁻⁹ mbar (test‑report required)
• Bake‑out capability to ≥ 80 °C, demonstrated on assembled system
• Data acquisition rate ≥ 1 MHz per chip, external trigger & clock inputs
• Provide read‑out hardware (AdvaBoard USB‑C or equivalent) and analysis software (PIXET PRO or equivalent)
• Submit technical description, compliance matrix, and cost proposal by the submission deadline.
