Operation Terminology TCLK
Also known as Clock, (Tevatron). Although the name implies it is only used for the Tevatron, it is essentially the master clock for the accelerator complex. It operates at a 10 MHz rate and is able to transmit encoded events at about a 1 MHz rate. There are 256 possible events (displayed in 2-digit hexadecimal numbers) that the clock can send out.
