| 5821 | Ba-132, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 6 min 1 sec long, Hz |
Due to the low rates we reconfigured the setup putting the two detectors closer together

| 5827 | sand+crucible, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 8 min 10 sec long, 989Hz | |
| 5828 | Coincidence, sand+crucible, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 15 hrs, 4 min 21 sec long, 47Hz, Det B HV OFF, Det B Coincidence window was more than 400 nsec | |
| 5829 | Coincidence, Au+sand+crucible #5 , 200 ns Coincidence window, no TDC hrs, min sec long, 23 Hz, Det B HV ON, ROC crashed after 45 hours 28 minutes, 285302 events recorded, scaler says 199440 seconds for run time=> 55 hours, I think the run lasted 2 hours assuming a 40 Hz counting rate and 285302 events |
