==Experiment Log==
'''25/10/18'''
# Set up apparatus as described in equipment list.
# Beam experienced difficulties, delaying data collection.
# Tracker operates on a 26MHz clock, and a trigger is sent whenever 2/3 silicon layers in tracker record events in a timestamp. Trigger tests were conducted with noise, hence a random rate in tests below.
# Tested trigger output of Tracker into Oscilloscope: square wave of period ~15 ns with amplitude ~400 mV. Pulse example recorded on Oscilloscope disk in folder: SShaikh/Tracker Trigger
# Placed signal splitter for trigger to send to both Digitiser and Oscilloscope. Amplitude reduced to ~50%. Pulse example recorded on Oscilloscope disk in folder: SShaikh/Tracker Trigger (Split)
# Split trigger found to be too small for Digitiser (accepts trigger of order ~V), hence Digitiser set to self-trigger mode.
# Aligned calorimeter to tracker, with centre of mylar window and tracker window aligned approximately by eye.
# Performed beam test (had approx 30 mins beam time), details provided below.
# Was found that the tracker was not completely set centre to the beam.
# Error in data taking: Trigger trace was recorded instead of PMT trace.
'''26/10/18'''
# Tracker was realigned to be centred to the beam.
# Using Tipp-Ex markers and lable stickers, window to scintillator was aligned more accurately to window of tracker.
# Test of tracker/PMT synchronisation (check tracker trigger pulse/PMT pulse sync and numbers of events in files) with scope vertical scale 50mV/div. Window center corresponds to right edge vertical line intersecting upper edge horizontal line, looking at the window.
# Test of tracker/PMT synchronisation with scope vertical scale 100mV/div, 2mm collimator centered.
# Test of tracker/PMT synchronisation with lower current, 2mm collimator centered.
# Degrade beam energy and measure response with 0.95mm, 2.01mm, 2.96mm, 3.95mm, 4.90mm, 5.70mm PMMA before calorimeter, 2mm collimator centered.
# Offset 2mm collimator (by 6mm in +ve) and measure response with 5.70 mm PMMA absorber.
# Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction) and measure response with 5.70 mm PMMA absorber.
# Offset 2mm collimator (by 6mm in +ve), no absorber.
# Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction), no absorber.
# Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction) repetition with lower current, no absorber.
# Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction) with left-hand hole covered by 3.95 mm PMMA.

PMT Current at HV supply -900 V, beam off: 150 &mu;A
PMT Current at HV supply -900 V, beam off: 150 &mu;A
28MeV beam. Scope triggered by tracker.  Cyclotron issues meant short run (~90 mins).  Test of tracker triggering/scope synchronisation.
Scope timebase: 20ns/div; trigger delay 80ns; C1 vertical scale 50mV/div. 
Tracker data indicates beam horizontal offset of 12mm; vertical offset of 1.3mm.

Experiment Log

25/10/18

  1. Set up apparatus as described in equipment list.
  2. Beam experienced difficulties, delaying data collection.
  3. Tracker operates on a 26MHz clock, and a trigger is sent whenever 2/3 silicon layers in tracker record events in a timestamp. Trigger tests were conducted with noise, hence a random rate in tests below.
  4. Tested trigger output of Tracker into Oscilloscope: square wave of period ~15 ns with amplitude ~400 mV. Pulse example recorded on Oscilloscope disk in folder: SShaikh/Tracker Trigger
  5. Placed signal splitter for trigger to send to both Digitiser and Oscilloscope. Amplitude reduced to ~50%. Pulse example recorded on Oscilloscope disk in folder: SShaikh/Tracker Trigger (Split)
  6. Split trigger found to be too small for Digitiser (accepts trigger of order ~V), hence Digitiser set to self-trigger mode.
  7. Aligned calorimeter to tracker, with centre of mylar window and tracker window aligned approximately by eye.
  8. Performed beam test (had approx 30 mins beam time), details provided below.
  9. Was found that the tracker was not completely set centre to the beam.
  10. Error in data taking: Trigger trace was recorded instead of PMT trace.

26/10/18

  1. Tracker was realigned to be centred to the beam.
  2. Using Tipp-Ex markers and lable stickers, window to scintillator was aligned more accurately to window of tracker.
  3. Test of tracker/PMT synchronisation (check tracker trigger pulse/PMT pulse sync and numbers of events in files) with scope vertical scale 50mV/div. Window center corresponds to right edge vertical line intersecting upper edge horizontal line, looking at the window.
  4. Test of tracker/PMT synchronisation with scope vertical scale 100mV/div, 2mm collimator centered.
  5. Test of tracker/PMT synchronisation with lower current, 2mm collimator centered.
  6. Degrade beam energy and measure response with 0.95mm, 2.01mm, 2.96mm, 3.95mm, 4.90mm, 5.70mm PMMA before calorimeter, 2mm collimator centered.
  7. Offset 2mm collimator (by 6mm in +ve) and measure response with 5.70 mm PMMA absorber.
  8. Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction) and measure response with 5.70 mm PMMA absorber.
  9. Offset 2mm collimator (by 6mm in +ve), no absorber.
  10. Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction), no absorber.
  11. Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction) repetition with lower current, no absorber.
  12. Double 2mm collimator (12mm separated in x direction) with left-hand hole covered by 3.95 mm PMMA.

Beam Tests

Thursday 25th October
