Assuming DSSSD is 1000um thick we can expect to observe protons for E_lab=11MeV as follows

14N(d,p)15N(gs)   E_p=5.4MeV
14N(d,p)15N(5.3)  E_p=8.0MeV

Optimised motor motion during run R58

Moved 2 mm in (20.3 potentiometer)

29.47 potentiometer

36.5 potentiometer

(started moving pneumatic)

64.36 potentiometer

74.03 potentiomater (servo in by 10 mm)

 

Moved in, collected counts for 5 minutes, moved out, waited for re-injection.

 

20.3 - 400 counts on the Rutherford peak, bins 125-131 on lowEnergyExTotalDSSD0

20.47 - 646

36.5 - 827

64.36 - 3900

74.03 - 10040

 

Based on Rutherford rate ratio, estimated we are 40-50 mm away from interaction point, i.e. beam roughly 1-2 cm on outer half of ring which may be consistent with BPM measurement in YR08


Decided to use 74.03 mm for data collection.

Started data acquisition on R59 at 17:27

Beam 3E7 at injection, 600 second storage, 3 second between cycles

Target pressure 1.3E12 based on 8.21E18 x S1=1.6E-8

Entry  Tue Feb 22 19:28:35 2022, David, Yuri, vacuum 

At 19:10 Frank called us that vacuum in sections 08 and 10 got worse by about 1.5 times. There is a possible danger that vacuum valves can get closed if rest gas pressure is above the set treshhold.

Nikos warmed the cryostat by 0.5 degrees from 129.0 K to 129.5 K and the pressure became better than before. We cooled the system in steps of 0.1 degress down to 129.1 K and again observed the pressure rise.

We think we can stay with the present conditions. However, the pressure shall be monitored not to hit the treshhold.
