  • Lab in-personnel:Pramod and Giulia
Status Run 74 in progress. First cooldown after IVC rebuild.
Tower thermometer is reading high, probably this is a thermometer problem and the actual temperature is much lower. High noise in some of the charge channels.
Setup: DIB1/2+acc → SL 41/43 → 3.2 MHz filters → cables 2/3 → nothing/Source_mover_board+HV_diverter_board → DCRC50(3)/55(1). Kepco 40V supply → HV BNC. No lead/poly shield. Currently both DCRCs are on.
1109 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 220/35.2/ 185 mK, Still = 1.31 K / 0.075 mbar / 0 mW, G1/G2= 271.8/251.1 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.62 K / 20±1 mbar. MB = 29.4%.
Tower particularly high today (but little down than yesterday (277 mK).
1115 Fill LN2 cold trap bath.
1156 At 10kHz noise in DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO = 21.8/3.7/3.9/47.8 e-6. This is q3/q1/q4/q2
At 3kHz (peak) noise in DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO = 390/56/91/2089 e-6
These are little bit low than yesterday, but not much improved.
1245 Aborted series, saw that the bias was not actually appiled, since of wires from the voltage was from the same +terminal (bias applied after 60 sec), with 1000 beginning randoms, trigger threshold 130/60/50/370 on DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO, 5Hz in-run randoms, with 1.6384 ms pulses (8192 length) and 400 us prepulse (500 length).
1333 Start 45 min series of 0V/-15V (bias applied after 60 sec), Tower @ 232 mK, with 1000 beginning randoms, trigger threshold 130/60/50/370 on DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO, 5Hz in-run randoms, with 1.6384 ms pulses (8192 length) and 400 us prepulse (500 length).
Start sequence with Start button.
1513 Begin LHe transfer @ MB = 22.8%
1600 End LHe transfer @ MB = 87.7%
1646 Flash detector for 60 sec.
