Goal

Use singles Cosmic events to measure rate differences between Metalica and Plastica

Apparatus

  • Plastica and Metalica are stacked on top of each other. High Voltage and ionization gas are connected in parallel.
  • A discriminator is connector to the amplified output (an on board preamp and the VPI Post amp) of sense wire 4.
  • The discriminator output is connected to a VME scaler.

Proposed Tests

  1. Measure the singles rate as a function of DC high voltage
  2. Measure the singles rate as a function of Discriminator Threshold


9-05-2008

The DC high voltage is on. The DC outputs of Plastika and Metalica from sense wire 4 are connected to the Model 777 Octal Variable Gain Amplifier.

The scope picture below was taken to illustrate the noise levels on the DC signals after amplification just before disrimination. Previous measurements suggested that the sense wire signal noise had an RMS of about 10 mV. The phillips amplifier doubles this noise RMS. The amplitude of the noise is about 30 mV.

Discriminator threshold vs rate for plastika phillips model 777.jpgDiscriminator threshold vs rate for metalica phillips model 777.jpg

With preamp and Post amp on

Sense wire #4 from Metalica comes out of VPI post amp channel #10. VPI channel #15 goes into ADC channel #3


Sense wire #4 from Plastika comes out of VPI post amp channel #15. VPI channel #15 goes into ADC channel #6

Compare Phillips output and VPI postamp output

Noise level of Plastika and Metalica. The noise on the Phillips amp went from 10 mV to 100 mV due to the voltage applied to the preamps. If you turn the preamp power supply off the noise will go back to ~20 mV.
