1103 Stop flashing detector
1126 Filled N2 cold trap
1130 Unbridge the analog grounds of DCRC. The noise seemed to be smaller.
1152 Start taking data 07110326_1152_F0001. -4V on Q1-4. Trigger: Q1(28ADC) OR Q2(30ADC) OR Q3(30ADC) OR Q4(30ADC); coincidence time 50us. Trace length 1024, lookback time 100us. Auto run enabled, take data 60min, flash 20min, cooldown 40min. Flash settings: DCRC30 on DIB2 (Q1&3), LED 1&2; DCRC33 on DIB1 (Q2&4), LED1; LED current 0.6mA, 100us ON, 2500us OFF. Tower temperature ~60mK. DCRC30 on DIB2, master; DCRC33 on DIB1, slave.
1655 The series 07110326_1552 finished. DAQ started auto flashing. Stop DAQ to transfer He. Keep flashing.

After overnight baking

Q1 and Q3 still didn't work well after overnight baking.

Cuts:

  • cQ# = max([Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4], [], 2)==#
  • cQCchisq = cQ1chisq & cQ2chisq & cQ3chisq & cQ4chisq;
  • cE = 45<Qsum.

Neutralization of Q1-Q4
The figures below plot the primary events as a function of time. Q1 and Q3 have much fewer events than Q2 and Q4.
