Oportunistic Beam studies
Trigger Setup
1.) The V895 was double pulsing and its output pulse maxed out at 40 ns
![]() |
The V895 "Maj" output is shown on Ch1 along with the NaI signal which was discriminated by it |
2.) inserted a gate delay generator to change the V895 output pulse to a microsecond
![]() |
I took the "MAJ" output and used a Phillips Gate Generator to extend the pulse length in order to stop multiple triggers |

- stop using V895 and used a discriminator (Phillips 708 set to ~100 mV) and logic unit (phillips 758)

Data Analysis
Replay
running the decoder using the personal account on the opsmdaq0 failed; perhaps due to problems writing its output to the /data disk
to convert a data file into a rood file I needed to login to opsdaq0 under the username "idaq"
then execute the following command
/work1/fanchini/decoder/fadc_decode_Source /data/annihilation/Annihilation_Sample_4086.dat
This created the summary text file and root file for run 4086
MakeClass
Load up the ntuple and click over to the "T" tree
Then onthe command line type
T->MakeClass();
