Previous Day

  • Lab in-personnel: 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 supplye → HV BNC. Lead shield erected, 4 walls. Currently both DCRCs are on.
Position of Am source: y = 0.0 mm
1204 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 89.9/33.7/193.1 mK, Still = 1.39 K / 0.070 mbar / 0 mW, G1/G2= 280.2/258.7 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.56 K / 10±1 mbar. MB = 67.4%.
1212 Fill LN2 cold trap bath
0942 At 10kHz noise in DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO = 8.2/3.2/2.7/51 8e-6. This is q3/q1/q4/q2
At 3kHz (peak) noise in DCRC3qI/qO/DCRC1qI/qO = 170/18/14/240 e-6
Noise is lower than yesterday.
1240 Start 45 min series of 0V/-8, 0/-10V (bias applied after 60 sec at -8V and then after 3 min increased to-10V), with 1000 beginning randoms, trigger threshold 70/40/35/200 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.
1325 Dial HV down to 0V and flash detector for 10 minutes with DCRC1&3 LEDs.
