Previous Day

Setup: DIB1/3/4 → 3.2 MHz filters → cables1/2/3 → DCRC55(1)/33(2)/50(3)
Last night's data: looks good, channels held stable all night. Not many noise traces so probably the threshold should have been a little lower.
0810 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 33.2/35.9/230 mK, Still = 1.3 K / 110 μbar, G1/G2 = 175/150 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.70 K / 30 mbar. MB = 65.0%.
Boiloff rate: between slow- and fast-mode. Haven't been able to establish slow-mode for a while now.
0815 Fill LN2 cold trap bath.
0850 Measure event rate, 21 pulses counted in 1 second = 21 Hz. This is close to the rate before the activation on Tuesday.

0930 Put 88Y source in the castle behind the fridge to take coincident data.
1243 took series of coincident data 07161111_1243 using DCRCX as DCRC4 and triggering on its phonon A
1325 Main bath = 57.3%
1556 Start sequence of 15 one-hour data series of 0V data with Frontend Gain = 5/2/5, OG = 8/3/8, with 1000 beginning randoms, with no flashing in between series, triggered with NaI coincidence setup using DCRCX (DCRC4) PhA.
1638 Fill LN2 bath full.
