- Lab in-personnel: Giulia and Derek
| 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 supplye → HV BNC. Lead shield erected, 4 walls. Currently both DCRCs are on. | |
| Position of Am source: y = 0.0 mm | |
| 0841 | Tower/MC/Coldplate = 137.5/34.0/191.2 mK, Still = 1.39 K / 0.070 mbar / 0 mW, G1/G2= 300.5/278.9 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.57 K / 20±1 mbar. MB = 28.9%. |
| 0854 | Fill LN2 cold bath. |
| 0858 | Start 45 min series of 12V/0V (bias applied after 60 sec), with 1000 beginning randoms, trigger threshold 100/50/50/230 on DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO, 5Hz in-run randoms, with 1.6384 ms pulses (8192 length) and 400 us prepulse (500 length). Use Sequencer script r74_takeandflash_dcrcbias.msl. This flashes for 30 seconds at end of series. |
|
| Series 07210824_0858 moving to 12 V the peak is much larger than 10 V, but still far lower than the previous 12 V series. |
| 1350 | Start 45 min series of 14V/0V (bias applied after 60 sec), with 1000 beginning randoms, trigger threshold 90/40/50/215 on DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO, 5Hz in-run randoms, with 1.6384 ms pulses (8192 length) and 400 us prepulse (500 length). Use Sequencer script r74_takeandflash_dcrcbias.msl. This flashes for 30 seconds at end of series. |
|---|---|
| 1321 | Begin LHe transfer @ MB = 21.1 % |
| 1359 | End LHe transfer @ MB = 87.7 % |
| 1529 | At 10kHz noise in DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO = 19/3.0/2.5/52 8e-6. This is q3/q1/q4/q2 At 3kHz (peak) noise in DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO = 480/29/50/850 e-6. |
| Noise is slightly higher yesterday. |
|
| Series 07210824_1350 with 14 V the peak is again larger than 12 but doesn't show signs of fallout, the sparse area is likely due to the end of the LHe transfer. |
| 1558 | Start 45 min series of 0V/-16V (bias applied after 60 sec), with 1000 beginning randoms, trigger threshold 85/45/55/260 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. |
|---|---|
| 1644 | Dial HV down to 0V and flash for 10 minutes with DCRC1&3 LEDs. |
