Previous Day

  • Lab in-person: Ruiren
  • Virtual partner: Matt
Setup Run 73. DIB 1/3/4 → Stripline 43/48/41 → pi-filters 1/2/3 → Cable 3/1/2 → nothing/nothing/accessory_interposer → HV_Conn 1/3/2 → HV 1/2 → DCRCX(4)/DCRC55(1)-master; DCRC33(2) → HV control. DCRCs on. Lead/poly shield erected (4 lead walls, 2 poly walls).
0930 Tower temperature is swinging between 96 and 99 mK. IbIs suggests detector temperature around 61 mK.
1000 Finish several IbIs measurements on DCRC1pD to get a relationship between current Tower thermometer and apparent detector temperature
1012 Start a 60 min series at HV = -300V, drifting 0.0305 V/s, prebias 15% for 2min,
CDMS detector: Driver Gains = 1x, DCRC4/1 QET biases set for 58.4 mK, Front-End Gains = (3/3/3)/(5/5/5)
1000 BOR & 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pD threshold = 8
Use RootSequencer.c, function drift_sequence(300,0.0305)
Use QETbias_update.c, function sequence_update_QETbiases(64,30,0,0.257,35.79)
1012 Vtest = -1.8 mV shortly after drift begins. Rootsequencer says drift starts at -315.6 V. 0.23% HV loss.
Tower thermometer swung between 95.8 and 97.5 mK during series
1113 Vtest = -2.1 V at end of drift. HV = -425.4 V according to RootSequencer. 0.20% HV loss.
1000 Ruiren temperature = 36.6C
1116 Ruiren enters lab
1117 transfer lN2 to cold trap dewar
1122 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 96.4/32.1/194 mK, Still = 1.47 K / 0.120 mbar / 0 mW, G1/G2= 248/219 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.63 K / 20±2 mbar.
1124 swap HV leads from negative to positive
1130 Ruiren leaves lab
1238 Start a 60 min series at HV = 0V,
CDMS detector: Driver Gains = 1x, DCRC4/1 QET biases = set for 57.1 mK, Front-End Gains = (3/3/3)/(5/5/5)
1000 BOR & 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pD threshold = 8
Use sequence SimpleDataLoopNoFlash.msl
Use QETbias_update.c, function sequence_update_QETbiases(61,30,0,0.082,52.615)
Tower thermometer spanned from 91.5 to 96 mK during series, mostly rising.
1749 Start a 60 min series at HV = +300V, drifting 0.0262 V/s, prebias 15% for 2min,
CDMS detector: Driver Gains = 1x, DCRC4/1 QET biases = set automatically to track temperature, Front-End Gains = (3/3/3)/(5/5/5)
1000 BOR & 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pB/D threshold = 8/8
Use RootSequencer.c, function drift_sequence(300,0.0262)
Use QETbias_update.c, function sequence_update_QETbiases(68,30,0,0.09,51.93)
1749 Vtest = 1.9 mV shortly after drift begins. Drift starts at 313.4 V according to RootSequencer. 0.24% HV loss.
Tower thermometer wandered between 92.6 and 93.2 mK during series.
1850 Vtest = 2.1 V at end of drift. Final HV = +407.7 V according to RootSequencer. 0.21% HV loss.
2018 Start a 60 min series at HV = +100V, drifting 0.0274 V/s, prebias 15% for 2min,
CDMS detector: Driver Gains = 1x, DCRC4/1 QET biases = set automatically to track temperature, Front-End Gains = (3/3/3)/(5/5/5)
1000 BOR & 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pB/D threshold = 8/8
Use RootSequencer.c, function drift_sequence(100,0.0274)
Use QETbias_update.c, function sequence_update_QETbiases(65,30,0,0.1,51.063)
2018 Vtest = 0.6 mV shortly after drift begins. Drift starts at 107.2 V. 0.22% HV loss.
Tower thermometer swung between 93.8 and 94.7 mK during series.
2119 Vtest = 0.95 V at end of drift. Final HV = +205.1 V. 0.19% HV loss.
