Previous Day

Setup: DIB1/3/4 → 3.2 MHz filters 3/1/2 → cable 3/1/2 →gender changer 3/1/2 → HVConn 1/3/2 → HV 1/2 → DCRC55/DCRC33
PuBe source in paraffin barrel behind shield (west side)
Na-22 source hanging along southeast column of fridge stand
0920 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 32.9/30.6/193 mK, Still = 1.3 K / 0.110 mbar, G1/G2 = 225/220 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.679 K / 26 mbar. Main Bath = 67.9%.
0925 Fill LN2 cold trap bath
0927 return 22Na source to safe
1515 Place Na-22 source near fridge hanging along southeast column of fridge stand
1619 Take test data series, testing a sequence for taking IbIs data
1625 Take test data series, testing a sequence for taking IbIs data. This one sets biases to 280, starts data, waits 10 sec, changes biases to 279, waits 10 sec, then ends data.
1630 Take test data series, testing a sequence for taking IbIs data. This one sets biases to 280, starts data, waits 10 sec, changes biases to 200, waits 10 sec, then ends data.
1650 Set all the QET biases and driver gains back to their standard values for PuBe data. Also adjust the driver offsets to get all baselines around -0.6 to -0.8. All channels are working, although noise is probably worse than average.
1655 Fill LN2 cold trap bath
1840 return 22Na source to safe
1843 prebias to 65V
1848 dial down to 50V
1850 Start 13 1-hour data series of 1-sided 50V HV coincidence data with Frontend Gain = (15/15/10)/(3/4/4), OG = 4/2, QET biases = table from Apr 28, with 1000 beginning randoms, no flashing, and a 1500ADC bin threshold trigger on DCRC4 pA (140mV external NaI trigger). Running OR trigger of NaI detectors with PuBe source on west side of shield. NaI detector C has 311 mV threshold and detector B has 288 mV threshold
