Entry  Wed Dec 11 14:46:21 2024, TD, JB, CC, MP, Mounting of AIDA, bPlast and BB7 for test 20241211_161837.jpg20241211_161833.jpg20241211_161830.jpg20241211_161820.jpg

Snout assembled for detector position and timing test.

The planned test is to use a BGO with a 22-Na source and the implantation stack to characterise the timing and position of back-to-back 511 keV events (proxy for mock beta decay event).

The implantation stack is assembled as follows:

Upstream ----> AIDA test frame (as a spacer) ----> AIDA DSSSD (3208-3/3208-21/3208-22, Upstream AIDA used in S100 & S181, April 2024) ----> bPlast (Downstream bPlast) ----> BB7 (mounted in test frame connected to AIDA adaptor) ----> Downstream

The AIDA DSSSD condition seems to be the same as when it was dismounted after S181 and it, apart from some specks of dust no bond wires appear to be broken to the naked eye.

BGO signals appear on the scope with a 22-Na source but the response is quite messy.

Power on all FEEs

Note nnrpi is not responding to ssh... MP investigates if it ahs been unplugged
 No, but a powercycle worked and fixed it

See error: /MIDAS/FEE_ASIC/aida06/ASICs.txt  not found, create the folders

We see some data in the L spectra, and changing the settings from one ASIC seems to work properly

Stopped for CC/MP to determine the which ASICs correspond to p+n and n+n

DSSSD#2 11  7 16 10 14 13  6  8

n+n Ohmic FEE64s 2, 4, 6, 8

Data analysis assumes

- all LEC ADC data channels with valid ADC offset included (1012 of 1024 channels)
      LEC calibration ADC offset only

- no clustering

- no multiplex timestamp correction

- no p+n junction side - n+n Ohmic side correlation time gates

- FEE64 *not* DSSSD strip ordering

- hardware - slow comparator setting p+n junction FEE64s 100keV, n+n Ohmic FEE64s 150keV

- LEC energy difference +/-168keV

- HEC energy difference +/- 1.68GeV

- valid LEC events

   DSSSD #1
   p+n junction side multiplicity = 1 and n+n Ohmic side multiplicity = 1
   DSSSD #2 
   0 < p+n junction side multiplicity < 8 
   and
   0 < n+n Ohmic side multiplicity < 8 

   151keV < LEC energy < 1008keV
    to select candidate beta events and veto higher energy events e.g. light ions
    standalone analysis of AIDA data, no downstream veto detector

- valid HEC events
   p+n junction side multiplicity > 0 and n+n Ohmic side multiplicity > 0

  (x,y) strips corresponding to maximum energy
  p+n junction and n+n Ohmic side HEC 

- HEC veto 
   p+n junction side multiplicity > 0 or n+n Ohmic side multiplicity > 0

- per pixel implant-decay correlations

- end of event 
   difference in WR timestamp between successive ADC data items > 2500

Attachments 1-4
per DSSSD p+n junction - n+n Ohmic strip time difference for HEC and LEC events (2us/channel) linear and log scale

- observe large (> 32us) time differences (on log scale)

- range of time differences increases with multiplicity ( DSSSD#1 cf. DSSSD#2 LEC events)

- distribution of HEC time differences can probably be understood in terms of most/all channels of ASIC being active during HEC event with low LEC thresholds

- AIDA is a triggerless DAQ producing streams of ADC data items *not* events
   at high instantaneous rates when events are constructed they may become aggregated in time i.e. > 32us readout time of all channels of one ASIC

- To investigate impose additional end of event criterion 
   difference in first and last WR timestamp of event < 33us

Attachments 5-6
per DSSSD p+n junction - n+n Ohmic strip time difference for HEC and LEC events (2us/channel) linear and log scale

- blue original end of event criteria, cyan new end of event criteria

- as expected range of time differences is restricted to +/- 32us 

- observe somewhat higher fraction of events with low time differences
 
  DSSSD #1 10363098 of 16104322 (64%) events +/-2us 

  DSSSD #2 860454912 of 1766618199 (49%) events +/-2us

Attachment 10 per FEE64 LEC data rate (Hz) 268ms/channel: energy > 1500keV

- observe high instantaneous rate on spill
- rate dominated by low energy (<1500keV) events
- rate of higher energy events dominated by on spill events i.e. light ions as expected
- significant deadtime on spill for n+n Ohmic FEE64s, low deadtime off spill
- deadtime low/zero for p+n junction FEE64s on/off spill

Attachment 11 per FEE64 LEC hit pattern: 150keV < energy < 1500keV

Attachment 15 per FEE64 HEC data rate (Hz) 268ms/channel: energy > 1000MeV

- rate dominated by low energy (>1GeV) events
- all HEC events on spill as expected (note FEE64 #7 has a single hot channel which can be disabled in software)
- significant deadtime on spill for n+n Ohmic FEE64s, low deadtime off spill
- deadtime low/zero for p+n junction FEE64s on/off spill

Attachment 16 per DSSSD p+n junction versus n+n Ohmic LEC energy - x-axis & y-axis 20keV/channel

Attachment 17 per DSSSD p+n junction versus n+n Ohmic HEC energy - x-axis & y-axis 20MeV/channel

Attachment 18 per DSSSD p+n junction versus n+n Ohmic HEC strip hit pattern: all HEC events

Attachment 19 per DSSSD p+n junction versus n+n Ohmic HEC strip hit pattern
 DSSSD #1 ions stopped in DSSSD #1 i.e. DSSSD #2 HEC multiplicity = 0
 DSSSD #1 shows x-y gate used ( 270 < x < 370, 20 < y < 90 ) to identify 166Tb implants
 DSSSD #2 ions stopped in DSSSD #2 *and* in transmission (can establish which ions stop in DSSSD#2 from DSSSD#2 HEC energy versus DSSSD#1 HEC energy - see https://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk/DESPEC/672

Attachment 20

DSSSD#1 HEC energy (20MeV/channel) versus HEC-LEC dt (1s/channel)

DSSSD#1 LEC energy (20keV/channel) versus HEC-LEC dt (1s/channel)

DSSSD#1 HEC strip # versus HEC-LEC dt (1s/channel)

- Observe # events in every third channel is lower 
- Probably reflects implant-decay correlation livetime
  For example (choosing some numbers for illustrative purposes)
  on spill: HEC livetime 75%, LEC livetime 75% (FEE64 deadtime common for HEC and LEC data) => implant decay correlation livetime 56%
  off spill: HEC live time 75%, LEC livetime 100% =>  implant decay correlation livetime 75%
- Observe 'hot' x channels 315, 318, 321, 324 - disabled for further analysis
- Do not observe any 'hot' y channels 


Attachments 21 & 22

DSSSD#1 per pixel HEC-LEC time (1s/channel): x,y,z gated to select 166Tb events

Naive (parent-daughter decay only, flat background) fit for data t=0-26s ( t1/2 = 27.1(3)s )

Fit ignores data for t=0, 3, 6, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22s to avoid bias of differences in implant-decay correlation deadtime

Suggestion of structure at c. 30s period? Does this reflect spill stucture? 10x spill cycles (30s), 9s spill off, ... etc

Sum of x,y,z gated HEC events (s2112 - see attachment 19) = 670441

Elapsed time of dataset 4h11m = 15060s
# pixels = 100 x 70 = 7000
=> # x,y,z gated HEC events per pixel = 670441/7000/15060 = 0.0064/s or mean time between x,y,z gated HEC event = 157s (estimate needs to be corrected for HEC deadtime)

Sum of implant decay correlations (s2220 - see attachment 21) t=0-150s = 273508 - flat background estimated as 150 x 500 = 75000 = 198508

=> efficiency c. 30% (presumably low due to implant-decay deadtime, LEC multiplicity, per pixel correlations and no clustering)


Summary

$64,000 question - what is the origin of the high instantaneous rate on spill  for DSSSD#1 ? On my to do list.


Attachment 23

LEC multiplicity with/without HEC data in event

per DSSSD LEC p+n junction multiplicity versus n+n Ohmic multiplicity
per DSSSD LEC p+n junction multiplicity versus n+n Ohmic multiplicity z_hec=1 and z_hec=2


With HEC data

DSSSD#1 p+n junction multiplicity ~ 17, n+n Ohmic multiplicity ~28
DSSSD#2 p+n junction multiplicity ~ 40, n+n Ohmic multiplicity ~23

Assume 200Hz HEC events => DSSSD#1 LEC rate = 200 x ( 17 + 28 ) => 9k LEC data items cf. >100k LEC data items (attachments 8 & 13)

i.e. not due to HEC events

Everything appears to be running smoothly. Attachments 1-4 were taken around 16:00

DSSSD Bias & Leakage Current - Check: OK (see attachment 1)
FEE64 Temperature - Check: OK (see attachment 2)
ADC Data Item Stats and Spectrum Browser - Check: OK (see attachments 3 and 4)

Another set of screenshots was taken around 18:00, and everything looks good.

DSSSD bias & leakage current  ok - attachment # 5-6
FEE64 temperatures  ok - attachment # 7

Tape service - attachement # 10
ucesb - attachment #11

At 19:17, AIDA03 temperatures gave no response (see attachment 12), but after two minutes, they returned to normal.

I noted that the  bplse in ucesb has no data (see attachment 13). It may need to change the disc thresholds again
 it does not affect AIDA

At 19:30 most aida temperature are high and I spoke to people on site via zoom one of them she is working with AIDA so she was able to help. She called Nick and it is found that there is a problem in the cooling system so she stopped AIDA

At 22 the cooling system fixed and Nic and the other person on site restarted AIDA

Tom thinks everything appears ok with AIDA

Have converted WR timestamp to data/time - see attachment 40

At the ~second timescale AIDA WR timestamp looks OK, i.e. no gross errors. Will need to check correlations with other detector sub-systems to confirm WR on the ~us time timescale.. 

However, ~10us offset reported by DESPEC online crew is correct (AIDA timestamps data at a later point in the signal processing cycle than other detector sub-systems). Have suggested online crew contact Nic or Calum to check what the AIDA WR timediff spectra should look like.

Elog went down around the end of the last shift, so final screenshots were not uploaded at that point.

However, AIDA appears to have contuned running smoothly in the interim (at least until 22:00).

 

Attachments 1 - 6 were taken around 16:00, 7 - 13 at around 18:00 , 14 - 18 at around 21:00.

 

Another set of sceenshots taken at around 23:00 - attachments 19 - 26.

2:30am: AIDA02 FEE stopped working. DESPEC main DAQ was alerted and remobe AIDA from timestitcher while I was restarting AIDA DAQ.

2:45am: AIDA02  FEE is back and AIDA has been added to the timestitcher again in the main DAQ.

The AIDA runs at the time of the crash to look at are R7_348, 349.

All spectra were zeroed at this time and checked.

6:30 the nearline/offline analysis team reported possible noise issue in DSSD#2 and asked if the threshold were changed at any point. I can't find any mention of changes in the elog. 
I've not done a setup of the all DAQ when AIDA02 fee crashes earlier this morning. I just did a setup of the merger. Thus I don't think the threshold have changed when I stopeed and restarted the DAQ.
I can see that currently slow comparator threshod are set to 0xa for most of the DSSD2 fees except for AIDA06 which is set to 0xf. I'm not sure this is the thershold we would need to increase. Something to check during the next shift.

In the UCESB window I can see that the number of decay in DSSD2 is double the number of decay in DSSD1 while the number of implant is similar. Looking at other shift it looks that this was alsready the case in prvious shifts.
