==BeamTune==
 
 
Tune beam into zero line, max current, 10.5 MeV energy, 20 ns width, 300 Hz rep rate
 
 
For Reference, below is the the tune used on last day of July 2012 Positron run

==Measure Emittance==
 
 
==Ilyusha Background measurements==
 
 
 
Previous Background tests during 2n correlation run
 
 
https://wiki.iac.isu.edu/index.php/2n_BKG_data
 
 
HV=1000
 
CFD = -12 mV
 
 
 
Previous run during neutron correlation experiment found 1 gamma/15 electron beam pulses
 
 
Tune beam into zero line, max current, 10.5 MeV energy, 20 ns width, 300 Hz rep rate
 
 
1.) Take a run with no shielding around Ilyusha
 
 
2.) Move Pb bricks around the scintillator to determine direction of background
 
 
3.) add shielding to accelerator

beam current decreased from 5 to 3 mA during the measurements ; must measure beam current for each measurement.

===Add 3 Pb Bricks to accelerator side===
 
 
 
We discovered that a gate vavle was slowly closing due to a gas pressure problem.  This explains why the rates were dropping above during the threshold tests.

adding 5" of Pb between detector and accelerator decreased the rate from  to 1/60 beam pulses
 
 
 
The cosmic + RF noise rate = 1/50 pulses
