<p>The accelerator and chamber setup were still operating after the overnight run.</p>
<p>Far S2 bias = -130V, leak I = 1.59uA. Diode bias = -70.1V, leak I = 0.00uA.</p>
<p>8:35 pressures (mBar):</p>
<ul>
<li>TPU1 = 8.6e-7</li>
<li>TPU2 = 3.1e-7</li>
<li>TPD1 = 6.1e-7</li>
<li>TPD2 = 6.3e-7</li>
<li>CHUP = Sensor Off</li>
<li>CHDW = No Sensor</li>

<p>Checking for beam-induced background, moved target ladder to position # 2 - blank 10mm aperture</p>
<p>Run # 181126084821</p>
<ul>
<li>Run time: 1204s</li>
<li>Pulser ON, as before</li>
<li>Target: Blank 10mm</li>
<li>Beam: 6.0MeV 7Be 2+</li>
</ul>
<p>Using blank 10mm frame FCC = 6pA</p>
<p>Stopped run - CSSM magnet was switched on halfway through. This this the magnet located immediately downstream of the chamber and we were worried about it affecting the noise. Switched off CSSM magnet.</p>
