NH | Report: aida10 database corruption |
Often aida10 database seems to get corrupted (ASIC values are all 0xad)
Unsure why it's only aida10, might be related to weird alpha rate behaviour at the moment.
Attached is corrupted database and correct database |

Figures 1-3: Energy Front vs Energy Back (No F-B energy gate)
Figures 4-6: 2D hit pattern
Figures 7-9: 1D hit pattern
aida10 does not seem to be reading out still, unsure of reason? Looks fine with pulser.
Slow comparator not setting or unusual gain?
Otherwise good |

NH | [HowTo] MBS for AIDA (Nov 19) |
For MBS integration AIDA forwards its data to an MBS Foreign Data Receiver (FDR), currently the PC assigned for this task is x86l-94.
To start the MBS system do the following:
Connect to the MBS FDR: ssh despec@x86l-94 (Ask local for password)
cd to the AIDA directory: cd mbsrun/nov19/aida_to_mbs
Start mbs: mbs
Startup the receiver: @startup
Now open the MBS relay for MIDAS (far right icon on the top)
Check both terminals (Relay & MBS) report a connection
In another terminal ssh into the FDR and run rate to monitor the data rate in MBS
For data to be transferred the Tape Server must be GOING but can be in No Storage mode if no MIDAS storage is required.
--
For experiments MBS file saving is handled by the DESPEC time sorter which merges all the subsystems together.
For testing you can write files from x86l-94 using the following commands
connect rfio XXX -disk
Where XXX is an Linux PC (ask local for a PC)
open file /path/to/file_ first=1 size=2000 -auto -rfio
This opens the file, writing in 2GB chunks
clo file
This will close the file when you are done
--
It is possible to restart the MBS relay at any point if the connection seems to have failed, also confirm the Tape Server is GOing |

> AIDA Waveforms immediately after beam at 21.11.19 8am or so.
Update 25.11.19 with all FEE64 waveforms added
Things to note:
aida01, aida05, aida09 are all on TOP - show VHF noise, esp. aida01?
TOP is where HV is connected (-ve core)
Everything noisy in general though |

NH | New Bias & Waveforms |
HV core (-160 V) now attached to bottom 3 FEEs (with grounded kapton)
DSSDs bias OK, leakages unchanged
No appreciable change in waveforms
Some estimates
aida01/aida05/aida09 VHF noise: 5 channels frequency = 10 MHz ?
All FEEs:
Oscillation at ~25-35 channels = 1.4 to 2 MHz ?
Varies a bit with each FEE.
No obvious issue with upper FEEs unsure why 10 MHz is present - fee09 has been replaced but showed it before as well.
Lower frequency noise on every FEE may be ground noise from e.g. switching PSU?
No more access to S4 to check thoroughly again.

NH | Initital Dec. Analysis |
Fig 1: 2D hit pattern of each AIDA DSSD for MBS run 24 (40Ar primary beam, centred)
Low statistics in DSSD2 partly due to low energy deposition
Fig 2: Position according to TPC42 (ca. 2 metres before AIDA)
Fig 3: 2D hit pattern of DSSD 1 for MBS run 37 (34Si fragments, no PID gate)
-
Bottom part of AIDA noticably cut off - rotation in DSSD also noticed (not an issue)
Snout was investigated and platform was discovered to not be fully level by Bogdan using a laser level - he has adjusted it so that the AIDA snout is now level to within 1 mm.
(The beam right side was previous 4-6mm below the beam left side)
Y cut in fragment run is currently of unknown origin. Optics are being investigated

Beam: 238U (850 MeV/u)
Fragment: 168Re
Tuning accelerator and FRS, believed since 3AM we are implanting on AIDA.
FEE issues:
One HEC in aida03 seems to be empty - LEC channel fills
aida09 has a lot of weird channels, check/load doesn't seem to fix
aida10 still no data after cable replaced
DSSD leakages OK - slightly higher now
Temps good
Fig 4: Rates 14:32
Leakages and temps good AS Before
Checking if we are implanting properly - possibly into the first DSSD at the moment

Turn off VME (kills time stamps but might be OK for waveform test?)
Check floor PSU under AIDA is offline too
Not sure that other FRS systems (e.g. Ion Catcher) is offline - I think RF may be on. |

aida10 has no ASIC events when running without pulser
DSSD ribbon cable was replaced, no change
29.01.2020 - change AIDA half adapter board, no change
Swapped HV (braid) from aida10 to aida12 - no change in leakage current, now testing data...
Looks the same (no data) fig 2
Very hot channel in aida08 as well:
- Channel 104 in histogram Stat = 4.7.L fig 1
Change FEE64 card?
Any other checks possible?
31.01.2020:
Installed new FEE64 card aida10: d8:80:39:41:ba:89
Updated dhcpd.conf
System boots OK.
returned bias ground to aida10 for symmetry reasons
Firmware updated from 0x12110103 to 0x18430701
Left recording alpha data over the weekend:
See stats in fig 3
DSSD 1 and 2 look excellent (one broken strip in DSSd 1)?
aida10 still no counts?
aida09 looks very... weird as well?
aida11 and aida12 seem ok?
Detector fault? |

when running the pulser in 10 do all the channels respond correctly ?
what happens if you drop the shaper threshold into the noise ? |

NH | AIDA Noise 14.02.2020 |
Electricians changed the grounding for the DESPEC platform to a large pillar that goes deep into soil
Change in grounding was apparently successful at reducing the noise complaints in Cave C (R3B)
AIDA:
Fig 1 & 2: Waveforms (Odd/Even)
Fig 3 & 4: Waveforms Zoomed
Fig 5: Good Event Rate
Fig 6: Merger Rate: 2 M items/sec
Fig 7: HV supply (no change)
There does seem to be a modest improvement (Merger rate down from 3 million, good event rates seem *better*)
(Reminder: AIDA@GSI sends 3 items per each ADC event, so merger rate is higher)
Not sure if this is still where it should stand? |

NH | Report: aida09 Kernel Panic & Lost WR |
aida09 crashed over the weekend and automatically rebooted.
After the reboot the WR timestamp sent to the merger is in the future and hence incorrect
Reset/Setup did not fix issue
Sync ASICs did not fix issue
GSI White Rabbit control page shows a correct WR timestamp
Attach 1: ttyUSB12 (aida09 log with kernel panic)
Attach 2: GSI White Rabbit control page
Attach 3: "Collect All WR Timestamps"
Attach 4: RAW Display for aida09
WR Time Item 0x80500232 0x0de48000; Time (48:63)=0x232; Time (28:47)=0x20310; Time (0:27)=0x0de48000
WR Time Item 0x80420310 0x0de48000; Time (28:47)=0x20310; Time (0:27)=0x0de48000
WR Timestamp = 0x23220310de48000 * 10 = 0x15F541EA 8AED0000 = 2020-02-21 CET 01:01:59.699537920

**** DESPECAnalysis: PostLoop
A few FEEs running "hot", maybe check. 3 had some alignment issues may need rechecking.
Timewarps somehow in aida03 and aida10 but may be code mistake - must check.
Only aida03 ran fast enough to have dead time.
aida10 shows decay data now - DSSD seems ok
Fig 1: DSSD 1D hit pattern
Fig 2: DSSD Energy
Fig 3: Single channel in aida03 that is hot
Fig 4: Channels 48-64 in aida08 are hot (wiring?)
Fig 5: Channels 17, 19 (crosstalk?) and 27, 33, 38, 39
All otehr channels quiet and OK. |

NH | HV Scope Traces |
Looking at the HV bias in a scope to see if it is the source of noise especially on the p+n side
Channel 1: HV Core channel 4
Channel 2: HV Braid Channel 4
Math: Ch1 - Ch2
100V bias (100 uA leakage current for 1 MOhm)
No obvious frequency components or large frequency components?
I do not know how this compares to RIKEN or STFC-DL
Updated to put the right frequency range (misread before)
Fig 3-4: Normalish looking data
Fig 5-6: Examples of noise appearing randomly on math line
Fig 7: 1ms long trace, noise stopped appearing
Update 26.02.2020
Fig 8: Trace with all 4 HV channels off
Fig 9: Trace with only oscilloscope biased
Fig 10: Trace with braids unplugged from all 3 FEE64s (only channel 4 connected)
Things to try:
Joining clean earth & chassis ground?
Checking HV jumper?
Finding 'scope probes and testing NIM socket? |

Noted using my AIDA event builder code, a timewarp was reported and I noticed the ADC event had a different timestamp LSB to the "WR" markers preceding it, which I didn't think was possible in the merger as it stands
