Wednesday Run Plan
- Tune up beam
- During this time, as much as possible tune up daq timing
- Kicker magnet calibration with viewscreen
- Pair spectrometer checkout/debugging
This should include setting thresholds, studying rates with air converter, looking at rates with photon hole open
versus blocked, ...
- Check detector rates with D2O. See if we can get a good time of flight spectrum.

Pair-spectrometer threshold calibration with beam

By using TDC to count PS pulses (10,000 beam pulses). Beam On. Dump in. Collimator Open. Radiator in (10 um Al).
By using TDC to count PS pulses (10,000 beam pulses). Beam On. Dump in. Collimator blocked (see lab log books). Radiator in (10 um Al).
- upstream PS: 150 mV threshold, 19 cnts/10,000 beam pulses (19/545 -> about 96.5% of beam is coming trough collimator!!!)
- downstream PS: 150 mV threshold, 18 cnts/10,000 beam pulses (18/476 -> about 96.2% of beam is coming trough collimator!!!)
