Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer

AMS-02 (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) will fly during three years on the International Space Station performing spectroscopy of cosmic particles, allowing the direct search of antimatter and the indirect search of dark matter. Annihilation of supersymmetric dark matter candidates could produce an excess in the 10 – 300 GeV region of the positron spectrum. An overall 10-6 separation factor for positrons from the more abundant protons is required to detect the signal. A Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) has been designed to achieve these physics goal.

The paper deals with the implementation of systems for remote data access in cooperation with the international laboratory CERN in Geneva. The first part discusses extensions of the DARMA information system for archive management. The main goal of this paper is to design and enhance the system with new functionalities and solve known shortcomings, and thus qualitatively increase the potential of the DARMA system in the context of the ALICE DCS (Detector Control System). The final part of the paper deals with the analysis of historical data and the design of a system for the anomaly and failure detection in the infrastructure of high voltage channels within the TRD detector (Transition Radiation Detector).
