We looked at the overnight background run (161105_0935_BackgroundOvernight.root), There are gamma-peaks that could be related to neutron inerastic
scattering. We identified 565, 596, 608 and 69 keV. They might be related to the effect of neutrons. If this is the correct assignment, this would mean
at least some of the neutrons are not thermal when they interact with the germanium. |

|
As previously recorded (81), on Thur Oct 13th, A NIM crate failure caused preamp power loss to the HPGe's. While D4 recovered with nominally the
same resolution as before. G7 would not recieve power to the preamps without an alarm from the NIM crate.
It was determined that there was a short along the lines of +12V and Ground , -12V and Ground, and between +-12V. |
