Crystals spectrum in coincidence with F11 do not. The time window of this coincidence is from-50 to 50 samples
and it should be from -180 to 300 samples to be centered in the peak of the TAC.

Some pictures after the background during the nigth. The front and back side looks asymetric. To be checked again with a 137Cs source.
AIDA is in. Root file is saved, after one night.

Following the instructions of CAEN, the SY2527 is working again. Some pushing, massaging appear to solve the situation |
Thu May 23 03:06:15 2019, A. Algora, 133Ba source of red box too strong
|
The Ba source of the red box is too strong. We can not use it. I need to identify the other one, which does not appear to be in RIBF.
The counting rate was 74 kHz in the DTAS. |

|
A file with Co and Cs was collected for 10 min
201905201444_137Cs60Co_align.root
after a minimal correction of the voltages (mentioned in the earlier entry). After this a new calibration was performed. |
Mon May 20 06:31:53 2019, A. Algora, gain correction
|
Only a very small correction was needed (at the level of 0.5 V) for the raw spectra of det 6,12,13,17 (raw Dynodes)

Mon May 20 03:18:03 2019, A. Algora, Co and Cs after two days
|
We have been running with Co and Cs for the weekend to check the overall stability.
Seems that the detectors did not move too much. Please note that the Ref detector was plugged incorrectly in channel 8
instead of channel 10 of the ancilliary card. A new run will be done to include the reference detector. |
Sat May 18 01:41:45 2019, Nacher, Algora, gain check after the night
|
Only PM3 showed an small jump. It seems that it has moved. Even after changing the HV cable. We will pay attention to it in the next days.
The others seem stable.
File after the night with 137Cs and 60C |
Thu May 16 06:59:51 2019, Algora Kiss Nacher, Det 3
|
Det 3 moved, both Anode and Dynode. So we have changed the HV cable to test if there are no more jumps. We used cable 9 and it was not
relabeled. The HV of the detector was corrected. It was changed to 527.5 V |
Thu May 16 02:57:15 2019, Nacher, Algora, threshold dynode #13 increased
|
Threshold of dynode #13 changed from 500 to 700 because of a very high noise.
New configuration file: 20190516_Conf.xlsx (attached). |
Thu May 16 02:02:24 2019, Algora Kiss Nacher, detector 3 moved over night   
|
After the long background measurement we have measured 60Co to check alignment.
Everything looks fine except for detector #3 that has moved to lower gain (seen in dynodes and anodes).
See figures attached. |

Wed May 15 06:40:16 2019, Algora, Kiss, Nacher , DTAS aligned and calibrated   
|
Signal cables (long cables, from preamp to digitizer) of channels 13 and 16 were changed. For the moment they have not been relabelled.
We assumed that it was not a HV supply or cable problem, since the anods were aligned and only the dynodes moved.
After changing the cables we realigned the dynodes and recalibrated all signals. Screen shots are attached. |
