So i decided to stop At 1200 Volts and not go below that. | It looks like the rate is not changing much in region of the DC Sense HV ~1250-1500 Volts.

The Plateau Measurements were done using Aluminum Brick. A 2X4X8 Aluminum brick shutter stopped 3 MeV electrons from entering the HRRL experimental cell. The rates seen by the DC and front scintillator were compared when the brick was in vs out. Plateau Curve shown below is based on the data which is represented in this section for each DC Sense High Voltage. The DC Sense HV range was chosen from 1200 Volts to 1550 Volts. For each voltage the data was taken two or three times. It looks like the rate is not changing much in region of the DC Sense HV ~1250-1500 Volts. Below 1200 Volts of DC Sense i was not getting any events. So i decided to stop At 1200 Volts and not go below that.
- Data Table
DC Sense HV (Volts) | Rate % (BrickOut-BrickIn) | Rate % (Brick Out) | Rate % (Brick In) |
1200 | 0.11 | 0.0080.2 | 0.090.09 | 0.1
1300 | 2.07 | 0.182.29 | 0.290.21 | 0.12

- Our Plateau Curve
ODU Efficiency curve. HV = Sense - Field
Our baby chamber measurements suggests a plateau near a sense wire HV of 1400 Volts and ODU saw a plateau near a Sense-Field high voltage of 2250 => Sense HV around 1400 volts like ours.

Trigger setup
As a trigger 3 Scintillators with RF Gate were used. Drift Chamber was sandwiched between the 1cm^2 Small fron PMT and Blue Second scintillator. At the end we had also blue scintillator. Two Blue scintillators were forming cross.
Run Range
Determine range of operating conditions for DC HV, rep rate and beam current

At 1350 Volts HV of Sense wire the count rate seemed like dropped, so i did scaler measurements again twice when the brick was out, and i got the following result: 27 % instead of 10 %. (2867 - 1116 - 776) .

- Example Calculating the mean value of Rate
I chose r1028.root file. The run was broken into three runs. For each run Faraday Cup was made(FC>1000).
Run divided into three separate files:
THe mean value and error for each file was done using the weighted error propagation [1].

Puts cuts on ADC data until rate is the same as with scaler data then overlay position measurements plots
DC efficiency
Plot histogram for all runs to check if pedestal is in same location.
Some ADC runs had 3 scintillators in coincidence. Use this to check DC efficiency. plot as function of HV the ratio of DC hits to coincidences. use the ADC value for the wire output to do several different signal thresholds.
