Previous Day

Setup: iZIP mode, DIB1/2/3 → cables → 3.2 MHz filters → DCRC55/33/50
Taking Y-88 data overnight. Last flash at 8:05 9:01
0900 Tower/MC(H35)/MC sensor/Cold Plate = 31.5/27.3/39/150 mK, Still = 1.11 K / 0.12 mbar, G1/G2 = 150/130 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.73 K / 20 mbar, Main bath = 68.6%
0905 Fill LN2 cold trap Dewar.
0930 Current Y-88 good data counts: 74 series at -4/+4 V, 63 series at +4/-4 V
1115 Remove Y-88 source from fridge to take a background event rate. 69 events counted in 1 second, so about 69 Hz.
1125 Check phonon traces, all look OK.
1128 Start 1 hour (1 series) of 30min background series at -4/+4V with FG=5/2/5, OG=3, with 1000 initial randoms, 1000 ending randoms, 30s flash and 25 minute cooldown before series. Trigger on DIB1 phA with threshold of 30ADC bins.
1254 Start 1 hour (1 series) of 30min background series at +4/-4V with FG=5/2/5, OG=3, with 1000 initial randoms, 1000 ending randoms, 30s flash and 25 minute cooldown before series. Trigger on DIB1 phA with threshold of 30ADC bins.
1420 Put Cf source in shield at detector level for overnight activation
1714 Fill LN2 cold trap full. Bath level at 56.5%
