Previous Day

  • Lab in-personnel: Matt
Status Run 76 in progress
Setup Cables 2/3/1 → diverter/nothing/nothing → Side2-readout HV CONN 1/3/2 → HV 1(L)/2(R) → DCRC50(3)/DCRC55(1), DCRC33(2)→HV control, NaI trigger signal → DCRCX(4)
Lead/poly shield fully assembled. Boron-filled socks covering NaI detectors.
PuBe behind lead wall on West side of lead/poly shield.
Cooled to base yesterday after a 5K pumpout
0840 Temperature spikes returned around 4 am. Still pretty mild. MC base is around 29.0 mK with spikes peaking as high as 31.5 mK.
0910 Mini-IbIs on DCRC1pD. dP/dI = 1.0 uV @ QET bias = 229.0 uA
0920 Mini-IbIs on DCRC3pA. dP/dI = 1.0 uV @ QET bias = 196.2 uA
0930 Mini-IbIs on DCRC3pB. dP/dI = 1.0 uV @ QET bias = 194.0 uA
0945 Mini-IbIs on DCRC3pD. dP/dI = 1.0 uV @ QET bias = 209.0 uA
1205 Open LN2 Dewar Vent valve to establish flow to E-box purge
1207 Dial HV up to -7.68V nominal, -5.15V actual, for 20% prebias (using RootSequencer)
1212 Dial HV down to -6.4V nominal, -4.25V actual
1219 Start -4.0 V PuBe data series 82 min long, with 1000 initial randoms, 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pB threshold 10.
Start series with the Start Button
1220 HV = -4.25 V, Vtest = -0.62 mV → Vdetector = -3.98 V
1225 MC/Coldplate = 29.3/152 mK, Still = 1.10K / 0.085 mbar / 0 mW, G1/G2 = 172/160 mbar, 1K Pot = 60° / 1.63 K / 23±1 mbar, MB = 69.1 %
1230 Fill LN2 cold trap bath
1340 HV = -4.25 V, Vtest = -0.42 mV → Vdetector = -4.07 V
1345 Dial HV down to 0V
1522 Dial HV up to -27.6V nominal, -25.4V actual, for 15% prebias (using RootSequencer)
1527 Dial HV down to -24.0V nominal, -21.8V actual
1535 HV = -21.77 V, Vtest = -2.72 mV → Vdetector = -20.57 V
1536 Start -20.7 V PuBe data series 85 min long, with 1000 initial randoms, 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pB threshold 10.
Start series with the Start Button
1540 MC = 29.2 mK base (with spikes)
1605 HV = -21.77 V, Vtest = -2.38 mV → Vdetector = -20.72 V
1705 HV = -21.77 V, Vtest = -2.15 mV → Vdetector = -20.82 V
1705 Dial HV down to 0V
1950 Check phonon channels. Baselines may be slightly lower, by around 0.01 V - could be the beginning of a helium film? But they look ok.
1954 Dial HV up to -81.7V nominal, -79.4V actual, for 15% prebias (using RootSequencer)
2001 Dial HV down to -71.0V nominal, -68.8V actual
2005 HV = -68.8 V, Vtest = -9.2 mV → Vdetector = -64.8 V. Not bad leakage.
2007 Start -65.0 V PuBe data series 79 min long, with 1000 initial randoms, 5 Hz in-run randoms, trigger on DCRC1pB threshold 10.
Start series with the Start Button
2025 HV = -68.8 V, Vtest = -8.65 mV → Vdetector = -65.0 V.
2120 HV = -68.8 V, Vtest = -8.29 mV → Vdetector = -65.1 V.
2130 Dial HV down to 0V
