      c. 9GeV peak in upstream DSSSDs (aida01, 2, 3 & 4) indicating (high energy) heavy fragments are stopping
      Low energy events near c. 200MeV lower mass, high energy, low energy loss - fission fragments?

04.20 per FEE64 stats spectra - attachment 20
      indicates implant x-y distribution - off centre (more significantly in x than in y) but DSSSDs appear to see most of distribution
      remember raw distro will have significant fraction of fission fragments - may be misleading - need to gate on high energy events to see x-y distro of ions of 
interest

Entry  Tue Jul 5 08:53:20 2022, TD, To Do 
In no particular order

1) CAEN 83xx series NIM bin (Ortec 533A output noise issue)

   observe +/- 6V, 12V, 24V lines with/without load 

   try new CAEN NIM bin and/or NIM bin of different type

2) Measure actual voltages at FEE64 power connector input

   OH suggests fab of power adaptor for safe observation - contact EW

3) rev B adaptor PCB

   invert 125 way ERNI - check for mech conflicts
   paired HV input (avoid Lemo-00 T pieces)
   consider isolating test/HV Lemo-00 shells from PCB ground (loop elimination)
   straight jumpers
   shrouded Samtec headers - consider mech issues/consequences of using eject clips too
   re-visit HV filtering & separate trace ground

4) isolation transformer

   as practical matter may be necessary to operate all platform from isolation transformer
   consider hire of appropriate unit

   need method to measure isolation - will require permit to work or equiv

5) investigate S4 area ac mains

   NH discussing with GSI electricians

6) Systematic measurement of AIDA PSU noise

   Spec linear AIDA FEE64 PSU

7) Redesign of snout
   Return to 1mm welded box Al for lower stage of snout  for added rigidity

8) Revisit calculation of cable lengths. Particularly for the triple

9)

Note

- aida06 not connected to DSSSD ( cabling broken  - will be replaced later this week )

- LEC ( 20MeV FSR ) data ADC offset corrected 
   ADC offsets available for 489 of 512 channels and are included in the analysis - 23 strips for which no ADC offsets could be calculated ( usually because there was 
no 
pulser data ) are not included in analysis 
- LEC ( 20MeV FSR ) front-back strip energy difference cut +/- 50 channels ( c. +/- 280keV )
- HEC ( 2GeV FSR ) front-back strip energy difference cut +/-200 channels ( c. +/- 1120MeV )

- LEC ADC data: 13 < channel < 188 ( c. 73-1053keV )
- HEC ADC data: > 13 channels ( c. 73MeV )
- FEE64 hardware thresholds: LEC c. 100keV, HEC c. 200MeV

Attachment 5 - DSSSD x-y hit pattern: HEC-LEC event time difference < 4.3s
 Majority of events associated with 'hot' p+n junction strips - few plausible decay candidate events - as expected.
 z-scale - semi-logarithmic - scattered events are single counts ( blue )
 1 count => rate ~ 1/2355s ~ 0.0004Hz, the great majority of pixels have zero counts

Attachment 6 - LEC ( decay ) and HEC ( implant ) events - 262.144us/channel ( 65536 channels = 17.2s ) 

HEC implants channels 12000-25000 = 216 counts => HEC rate ( in spill ) 63.4Hz
LEC decays channels 12000-25000 = 3865 counts => LEC rate ( in spill ) 1134.1Hz
LEC decays channels 25000-38000 = 2790 counts => LEC rate ( inter spill ) 818.7Hz

This is a ( Fortran ) Namelist I/O data file containing of the ADC offsets, FEE64 configuration, LEC and HEC energy difference windows 

The ADC offset channel number is calculated as

channel = channel_ident + ( module * 64 ) where module = 0-7 corresponding to AIDA FEE64s aida01-aida08

and is used as follows

ADC data = INT ( RSHIFT( ABS( 32768 - data( i ) ), 3 ) - offset( i ) + 0.5 )

where data(i) is the ADC data item for channel i, offset(i) is the ADC offset for channel i

An ADC offset of -9999 means there was no pulser data for this channel in data files R5 and R11.

    Reply  Thu Mar 28 09:18:53 2024, TD, Installing FEE64s of DSSSD2 

Some additional checks

- check 'top hat' electrical isolators are correctly installed at each of the 4x mounting points of the AIDA snout assembly 

- check snout is electrically isolated with respect to AIDA support assembly/stand, bPlas PCBs/cabling/ground/drain wires and BB7

- check LK1 installed aida02 or aida04 *and* aida06 or aida08 ( I assume these are the n+n Ohmic FEE64s? )

- check LK3 installed bottom, middle p+n junction FEE64s ( i.e. LK3 installed on 2 of 16 FEE64 adaptor PCBs )

- check FEE64 power cables are paired correctly, e.g. aida02 & aida04, aida01 & aida03 etc. Remember that the numbering of the power cables at the FEE64 PSUs may no longer correspond to which FEE64 is actually connected to that cable

- check test  and test - cable daisy chains are removed

- check ground cabling attachment to Lemo 00.250 connectors is tight - they have tendency to loosen with handling

Going to try optimising noise now.

 

DHCP updated

new ASIC settings: 2024Mar27-11.25.32 - 16 FEEs (2,4,6,8 n+n, rest p+n)

New layouts: /home/npg/LayOut/GSI_Triple_S100

New layout.txt

 

Firmware of aida11 updated from 0xea40704 to 0x3350706

 

Temps GOOD fig 5

Rates fig 6, 7

Check adapter alignment aida14 and aida16

 

bPlas left/right cables are not insulated and shorting to the snout

Logs on nnpi1 archived and deleted, start again
All 16 FEEs are showing USB logging connectivity and can be monitored with Pi_Monitor

From waveforms aida08 and aida16 are quite unhappy. The rest don't seem too bad. DSSSD 1 is much quieter than it was before!

White Rabbit Analysis: aida02 has lots of WR error counter, HDMI reseat needed
aida09-12 have no WR timestamp, the cable to the MACB is bad or the MACB is bad.
Not needed to fix right now (for noise testing)

Turn off bPlas
We see the noise drop a lot
