Abstract :
The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment will consist of seventeen separate detector subsystems distributed in three underground experimental halls. There will be eight PMT based anti-neutrino detectors (ADs), six water-Cherenkov detectors, and three RPC detector subsystems. Each detector will be read out using an independent VME crate. The data acquisition (DAQ) readout system (ROS) reads data fragments from electronics and trigger modules then concatenates them into an event in each crate. A detailed design and implementation of the DAQ readout system for the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment will be presented.
