A 1/4 inch diameter collimater is placed in the experimental cell just after a Helium bag inserted in the wall. A 2 cm thick scintillator is place over the beam downstream side of the collimator aligned using a laser.  A 1 kG magnet placed after the drift chambers deflects charged particles onto a large scintillator paddle.  A coincidence is required between the two scintillators.

A 1/4 inch diameter collimater is placed in the experimental cell just after a Helium bag inserted in the wall.   A 2 cm thick scintillator is place over the beam downstream side of the collimator aligned using a laser.  A 3mm diameter collimator is placed just before a 1 kG magnet that is after the DC.  The 1 kG magnet placed after the drift chambers deflects charged particles onto a large scintillator paddle.

A logic circuit was set up to allow for the following trigger configurations

#gun AND (Front Scint OR Rear Scint)

#gun AND (Front Scint AND Rear Scint)
  
 
Increased beam energy from 10 MeV to 12 MeV due to expected energy loss in front scintillator.

Data was taken with
 +
# Metallica's output is recorded in the odd ADC numbered ntuple entries (ADC1, ADC3,ADC5, ...)
 +
# Plastika's output is recorded in the EVEN ADC numbered ntuple entries (ADC2,ADC4,ADC6,...)
 +
# Wire # 4 is recored in ADC7 for Metalica and 8 for Plastica.
 +
# Wire # 3 is beam upstream
 +
#The DAQ trigger was gun AND (Front Scint OR Rear Scint).  The back scintillator output is in the data stream (ADC14 in C-convention, ADC15 in ntuple) so A software coincidence will be used.  The rate with ANDing all signals was time prohibitive.

Decided to increase beam current until up to 10% of events in front scintilaltor pass through magnet after drift chamber and hit back scintillator.  Ran in OR mode so a software coincidence can be formed based on measurement in ADC15 (ADC14 in C convention).

[[Image:BiasedFit2Wire4_2-29-08.jpg]]
 +
 
 +
A dependence of the DC's measured charge as a function of position was NOT observed; the slopes are consistent with zero.  Plastika outputs 50 ADC channels (100 fC / channel) more than Metalica.  Is this because it was behind Metalica?
 +
 
 +
A Landau fit to the charge distributions of Wire 4 for Metalica and Plastika, when the beam is 4 inches away from the feed through, gave a sigma of 122 for Metalica and a sigma of 160 for Plastika.  The sigma of Landau fits to Plastika's ADC spectrum were always 30% larger than Metalica as you can see from the histograms above.  The exception is at the 2" measurement position in which the sigmas differed by 10%.

;Observations
 +
: The pedestal for the last scintilator is below channel 70.  There seems to be a lot of noise around channel 150.
 +
: turning the DC amplifier off increases the noise on the line (no more differential amplification).

Leap Day run

DC setup

This time the Sense wire HV is set to 1500 to start

90/10 ArCo2

HV settings
Wire Volts current ([math]\mu[/math]A)
Sense 1500
Field -750
Guard 750

DC preamp at 5.6 Volts


Beam Line Configuration

A 1/4 inch diameter collimater is placed in the experimental cell just after a Helium bag inserted in the wall. A 2 cm thick scintillator is place over the beam downstream side of the collimator aligned using a laser. A 3mm diameter collimator is placed just before a 1 kG magnet that is after the DC. The 1 kG magnet placed after the drift chambers deflects charged particles onto a large scintillator paddle.

A logic circuit was set up to allow for the following trigger configurations

  1. gun AND (Front Scint OR Rear Scint)
  2. gun AND (Front Scint AND Rear Scint)

Increased beam energy from 10 MeV to 12 MeV due to expected energy loss in front scintillator.


Data was taken with

  1. Metallica's output is recorded in the odd ADC numbered ntuple entries (ADC1, ADC3,ADC5, ...)
  2. Plastika's output is recorded in the EVEN ADC numbered ntuple entries (ADC2,ADC4,ADC6,...)
  3. Wire # 4 is recored in ADC7 for Metalica and 8 for Plastica.
  4. Wire # 3 is beam upstream
  5. The DAQ trigger was gun AND (Front Scint OR Rear Scint). The back scintillator output is in the data stream (ADC14 in C-convention, ADC15 in ntuple) so A software coincidence will be used. The rate with ANDing all signals was time prohibitive.

Runs

Run Description

Decided to increase beam current until up to 10% of events in front scintilaltor pass through magnet after drift chamber and hit back scintillator. Ran in OR mode so a software coincidence can be formed based on measurement in ADC15 (ADC14 in C convention).

Run # Description
431 0" from feedthrough , Sense wire at 1450 Volts, Gun voltage at 1.76
432 0" from feedthrough , Sense wire at 1500 Volts, Metalica (ADC6; C-convention) sees overflows and looks hot on scope compared to Plastika (ADC8: in ntuples),Gun voltage at 1.76
433 -1" from feedthrough (beam should miss chamber), Sense wire at 1500 Volts, I see peds in Plastika but not metalica (Metalica is beam upstream of Plastika), The overflows are due to DC voltage/Gain being too high ,Gun voltage at 1.76
434 1" from feedthrough , Sense wire at 1500 Volts, Gun voltage at 1.76
435 2" from feedthrough , Sense wire at 1500 Volts, Gun voltage at 1.76

Observations

A BIASED fit to Wire #4

BiasedFit2Wire4 2-29-08.jpg

A dependence of the DC's measured charge as a function of position was NOT observed; the slopes are consistent with zero. Plastika outputs 50 ADC channels (100 fC / channel) more than Metalica. Is this because it was behind Metalica?

A Landau fit to the charge distributions of Wire 4 for Metalica and Plastika, when the beam is 4 inches away from the feed through, gave a sigma of 122 for Metalica and a sigma of 160 for Plastika. The sigma of Landau fits to Plastika's ADC spectrum were always 30% larger than Metalica as you can see from the histograms above. The exception is at the 2" measurement position in which the sigmas differed by 10%.

Run # Scint Histogram Wire #4 Description
447 R447 ADC15.gif R447 ADC7.gif Beam turned off, Pedestal run, Sense wire at 1450 Volts, Translator Power supply On, Preamp Power supply at 5.6 V, trigger: gun OR either scintillator
448 R448 ADC15.gif R448 ADC7.gif Beam turned off, Pedestal run, Sense wire at 1450 Volts, Translator Power supply Off
449 R449 ADC15.gif R449 ADC7.gif Beam turned off, Pedestal run, Sense wire at 1450 Volts, Translator Power supply Off, DC preamp off
450 R450 ADC15.gif R450 ADC7.gif Beam turned off, Pedestal run, Sense wire at 1450 Volts, Translator Power supply Off, DC preamp off, Now just trigger on gun pulse, DC HV off
Observations
The pedestal for the last scintilator is below channel 70. There seems to be a lot of noise around channel 150.
turning the DC amplifier off increases the noise on the line (no more differential amplification).
