histogram analysis Shutter Open - Closed

GEM detector voltage settings:

Discriminator:

Amplification:

Shutter open run 4676 took data for 44480 seconds (12.4 hrs) and Shutter closed run 4675 took data for 28638 seconds (8 hrs)


Run 4676 :raw shutter Open ADC spectrum	Run 4675 raw shutter closed ADC spectrum

Run 4676 :NORMALIZED shutter Open ADC spectrum	Run 4675 NORMALIZED shutter closed ADC spectrum

Assume that the single peak for the Closed shutter spectrum is the result of less charge being liberated by the right most peak of the shutter open spectrum due to the energy lost by the ionizing particle as it travels through the 1mm thick FR4 shutter into the ionization chamber.


Run 4676 :raw shutter Open ADC spectrum	Run 4675 raw shutter closed ADC spectrum

Shutter Open - Shutter Closed Difference

Run List1 GEM, Cathode 2.6, 2.9kV

/home/daq/CODA/CODAreader/ROOT_V5.30/V775mV792/evio2nt -fr4685.dat > /dev/null

The voltage of the Cathode is 2.9 kV and of the GEMs is 2.6 kV.

The amplifier is on x6 level fine gain which will amplify the detector signal to 33.5 times (6.56+_ 0+_ V/196 +_ 0.6mV).
