Scintillators
Two scintillators are placed on top and below the drift chamber
These scintillators have PMTs on both ends allow an initial position to be determined according to the time difference between the PMT hits.
Below is the calibration for Detector M and Detector G
HV(M1) = -1602 Volts
HV(M2) = -1750 Volts
Normalized_and_BKG_subtracted_data_for_Det_M
M2 PMT is not making good contact with the light guide thus output pulses are below 300 mV, Pulses get bigger and more frequent if you push the PMT onto the scintilator.
HV(G1)= -1700 Volts HV(G2)= -1650 Volts
Normalized_and_BKG_subtracted_data_for_Det_G
G1 pulses were below expectations ( below 300 mV?) perhaps the PMT is not capturing the light.
M1 = TDC80
M2 = TDC81
G1 = TDC84
G2 = TDC86
Trig = TDC 95
M1 = TDC112 M2 = TDC113 G1 = TDC116 G2 = TDC118 Trig = TDC 127
Trigger Matching is ON
resolution = 100 ps
Scint Time Difference
Scint on top of each other
Before placing the scintillators at the locations shown above (one scint on each side of the drift chamber) we placed them on top of each other to measure the time between pulses when a cosmic ray passes through each. The Logic module width was 20 ns.
The time difference between two 4 cm thick scintillators placed on top of each other was measured. There seems to be 20 nsec wide time difference between the scintillator pulses in coincidence.
Scintillators on both sides of DC
We ran cosmic over the weekend and stored the data in run 3811.
