Vladislav N Sedov

Electrical Engineer, DAQ-Development Group, Neutron Instrument Technologies Section, Neutron Technologies Division, Neutron Sciences Directorate

Mr. V. Sedov has 30 years of experience in development and design of custom DAQ electronics (counting, energy, position and time measurements) for different applications (HEP, X-ray, neutron): front-end signal processing (preamplifiers, shapers, discriminators, etc.) for different radiation sensitive detectors (gas, PMT, PIN, APD), analog and digital DAQ boards for different readout types (strip, delay line, charge division) and related electronics as high voltage power supplies, controllers (sample environment, motors, etc.) and monitors.

September 2010 to present:
R&D and Engineering in the Instrument Data Acquisition and Controls Group, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA.
An Electrical Engineer responsible for development, design, manufacturing and operation support of DAQ and related electronics for the instruments at SNS and HFIR. Developed and designed some of DAQ electronics for new deployments and upgrades of many instruments (CORELLI, ARCS, NOMAD, POWGEN, HB2B, BIO- and GP-SANS, etc.). Proposed and implemented some reliability and performance improvements for some of the SNS and HFIR DAQ systems.

May 2001 to September 2010:
R&D and Engineering, Bruker AXS Inc., USA.
An Electrical Engineer responsible for development, design and manufacturing support of DAQ and related electronics for X-ray diffraction and fluorescence scientific instruments. Participated in multiple electronics R&D projects for gaseous and solid state detectors of X-ray radiation among which different types of preamplifiers, DAQ for different readouts, sample positioning and sample environment motor and solenoid controls. 2005 R&D 100 Award for VANTEC-2000.

1999 - April 2001:
Engineering in the Department of Physics & Astronomy, University of California, Los Angeles, USA.
An Electrical Engineer responsible for development and designing some of DAQ electronics for CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment:
Designed of analog part of ALCT (Anode Local Charged Track) 384-channel prototype board for the Endcap Muon Proportional Chambers;
Participated at design of SR (Sector-Receiver) prototype board for the Endcap Muon Track Finder System.

1990 – 2001:
R&D and Engineering in Neutron Research Department and later in High Energy Physics Division, St. Petersburg Nuclear Physics Institute (PNPI), Russia.
An Electrical Engineer responsible for development, design and manufacturing support of DAQ and related electronics for scientific instruments of different kind. Participated in multiple DAQ electronics R&D projects for different international experiments as ATLAS (CERN), HERA-B (DESY), CMS (CERN) as well as for internal PNPI projects.
