Offline analysis of AIDA data files R25_11 to R25_23 using MIDASsort Note - no calibration (raw ADC data only) - no thresholds - no clustering - events delimited by > 2us time difference between successive ADC data words AIDA data files R25_11 to R25_23 inclusive contain 410.3M events - HEC = high energy channel = 20GeV FSR range for high energy implants - LEC = low energy channel = 20MeV FSR range for decays (and pulser) - see attachment 20 *prelimnary* analysis of R25_11 to R25_23 by Tain et al. of 21.11.16 Attachments 1 & 2 ----------------- s1-s24 per FEE64 # ADC data per 20.48us s101-s124 per FEE64 # disc hits per 20.48us Pulser event demonstrates that all FEE64s timestamps are synchronised Attachments 3 & 4 ----------------- s301-s306 per DSSSD LEC rate (Hz) updated every 1s s307-3312 per DSSSD HEC rate (Hz) updated every 1s Demonstrates implant and decay rates were reasonably constant. Note that there is an integerisation issue in the rate calculation which means rate is shown as zero periodically. Attachment 5-8 -------------- s2000-s2005 per DSSSD LEC m_lec_p versus m_lec_n following spectra require 0 < m_lec_p < 8 and 0 < m_lec_n < 8 all combinations of x & y plotted s2010-s2015 per DSSSD LEC x versus y s2020-s2025 per DSSSD LEC E_p versus E_n (10keV/ch nominal) s2030-s2035 per DSSSD LEC-LEC time (2.56us/channel) Demonstrates large LEC multiplicities associated with HEC events but relatively low multiplicities associated with LEC-only events . Minimum LEC-LEC time difference c. 1 x 2.56us = 2.56us which suggests events with low LEC-LEC time difference are non-stochastic and suggests EMI/RFI noise causing 'multiple' event bursts. This will likely be dominated by channels 0-1 (say) and 60-63 (say) of each FEE64 - disabling these channels may a quick and dirty way to inspect a subset of data with significantly less EMI/RFI noise Time difference between successive LEC events DSSSD centroid =>rate (kHz) 1 21.16 18.5 2 17.45 22.4 3 40.27 9.70 4 50.86 7.68 5 58.11 6.72 6 29.33 13.3 Which somewhat over-estimates observed rates (see below) Periodic fine structure observed with period ~4-16 channel (~10-40us) Attachment 9-13 --------------- s2000-s2005 per DSSSD LEC m_hec_p versus m_hec_n following spectra require 0 < m_hec_p < 8 and 0 < m_hec_n < 8 all combinations of x & y plotted s2010-s2015 per DSSSD HEC x versus y (semi-log and linear z normalisation) s2020-s2025 per DSSSD HEC E_p versus E_n (10MeV/channel nominal) s2030-s2035 per DSSSD HEC-HEC time (2.56us/channel) Demonstrates relatively low multiplicities associated with HEC events HEC x versus y spectra are different to those shown by Tain et al. (p.4) => BigRIPS PID gate used? what is the origin of the fine structure observed by Tain et al. (p.4)? No obvious structure in the time between successive HEC events - see also https://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk/AIDA/457 - minimum time between successive HEC events c. 16 x 2.56us = 41us which is consistent with HEC (+LEC) multiplicity per ASIC and ASIC shaping time (8us) Note Tain et al. (p.3) plot time between successive events with no restriction on type (LEC or HEC). The time structure(s) observed may therefore be related to LEC events Time difference between successive HEC events DSSSD centroid =>rate (Hz) 1 2566.44 152.0 2 2970.33 131.5 3 2557.81 152.7 4 2622.38 149.0 5 3656.82 106.8 6 15706.73 24.9 Which somewhat over-estimates observed rates (see below) Attachment 14-16 ---------------- s2200-s2205 per pixel, per DSSSD HEC-LEC time (2.56us/channel) Minimum HEC-LEC time difference c. 15 x 2.56us = 38.4us which is consistent with ASIC shaping and readout times. In comparison to Tain et al. (p.9) no obvious structures at large HEC-LEC time differences. Significant number of excess events observed at HEC-LEC time differences ~ few hundred us. This is likely due to the 100kHz EMI/RFI noise observed. Attachments 17-19 ----------------- MIDASsort Fortran source, spectrum titles, and namelist I/O variables (in this case principally FEE64 mapping and default ADC gain/offset values).
