Abstract

Chinese spallation neutron source (CSNS) project has finished the feasibility study and will start research and development. Multi-wire proportional chamber (MWPC) detector, gas electron multiplier (GEM) detector and corresponding electronics and software will be used in Chinese spallation neutron source project. At present, the research work for prototypes of each detector, corresponding electronics and software is underway. Electronics and software of each prototype are similar. This paper introduces detector, electronics and mainly introduces the software of electronics tests and data acquisition in prototypes.
