Detector tests

Beam Left Detector

Beam left detector is at 14.5 cm from the edge of the 6-way cross. Beam right detector is pushed right next to the edge of the 6-way cross.

Electron gun trigger and detector diode signal put into and logic. We want to put the annihilation target in and out, see how it affects the rate.
