==In Edinburgh==
  Target ladder and components

Scan is attached, including all items denoted in the loan book as being taken to ISOLDE.

This will be useful for a complete compilation of our inventory.

Attached are the plots from MC simulations of the energies the detected particles are to have, with the top plot showing the dE-E plot and the bottom plot showing the total energy of the particles.

Please note the height of the peaks is not indicative of the counts expected and there is a low proton background expected between the entrance and exit window elastic peaks - see attached plot from Margerin (2014).

Struts arrived and were installed on Wednesday. The holes on one side of each of the struts to connect the wheels to were slightly too wide (11.5 cm vs 10.5 cm).
We've taken away part of the wheel holders and now they seem to be fitting in.
See attached photos:

1. First wheel with wide holder holes
2. Close up of work done
3. Second wheel with wide holder holes (on opposite corner of chamber)
4. Close up of work done
5. Wheel holder that was warped previously
6. Wheel holder that was warped previously, other perspective
7. What chamber looks like as of Wednesday afternoon
8. Lead sheets to make chamber a little bit more secure.

Please see https://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk/ISOLDE/203 for the E_cm calculations.

Presently, we are scheduled for 9 days: 
  Nov 26-28 are three (3) days nominally for beam development
  Nov 29-Dec 4 are six (6) days nominally for physics data taking

It is not required to use all beam dev time at the beginning of the run, and we can take data in here with a beam we like before moving on.  We do, however, have to care for the fact that over the weekend of 1-2 Dec that we cannot 
change the beam (no operators) nor our target (no RP).

==Tentative Run Plan==
1 day for ion source and 2.8 MeV beam dev
1 day for High E_cm statistics, using the 6 um Ti foil
1 day for lower energy beam dev (for use with mid E_cm)
1.5 days for Mid E_cm statistics
(Switch back to 2.8 MeV/u beam, takes under 1 hour)
4.5 days for Low E_cm

---Total 9 days---

==Conditions==

The High E_cm and Low E_cm can not only share the same 2.8 MeV/u beam, which is considered a fairly easy beam since this is the nominal REX energy.

The Mid E_cm requires its own beam, and we have two conditions to choose from.  

=High E_cm=
  6um Ti, 2.8 MeV/u beam: Ecm=5.56-5.86 MeV
    Pro: Beam energy is 'easy'
    Pro: Can share E_beam with Low E_cm

=Mid E_cm=
  2.5um HAVAR, 2.2 MeV beam: Ecm=4.76-5.06 MeV
    Pro: Beam energy was delivered previously in 2012
    Con: Physics protons show up below the elastic ones

  3um Ti, 1.88 MeV/u beam: Ecm=4.27-4.58 MeV
    Pro: Physics protons show up above the elastic ones
    Pro: We already made the gas cell
    Pro: Very similar E_cm to Margerin (but different conditions)
    Con: Beam energy might be difficult to achieve (but possible)

=Low E_cm=
  12.5 Al, 2.8 MeV/u beam: Ecm=3.41-3.72 MeV
    Pro: We have the foil installed and tested
    Pro: Beam is 'easy'
    Pro: Can share E_beam with High E_cm

Assuming 200 Torr helium target., elastic and reaction peaks do not have signifcant overlap unless stated:

3um Ti, 1.88 MeV/u beam: Ecm=4.27-4.58 MeV

3um Ti, 2.2 MeV/u beam: Ecm=5.50-5.80 MeV

12.5 Al, 2.8 MeV/u beam: Ecm=3.41-3.72 MeV

2.5 um HAVAR, 1.88 MeV/u beam: Ecm=3.54-3.85 MeV (peaks overlap)

2.5um HAVAR, 2.2 MeV beam: Ecm=4.76-5.06 MeV

6um Ti, 2.2 MeV/u beam: Ecm=3.15-3.47 MeV

6um Ti, 2.8 MeV/u beam: Ecm=5.56-5.86 MeV

Conor will take:

==Black clicker case==

Foam packed, gas cell "b" with 12.5 um Al entrance window.
Target ladder with broken gas cell installed.

Daid will take:

==Backpack etc==

1 box with 4 quick-release gas tube hoses.
One bag with 6 teflon foot supports.
One small bag with gain screwdriver, 2 LEMO barrels, a bag of M2 screws from Japan, 1 gas cell saddle.
Gas cell feedthrogh, in bubble wrap
Gas cell vacuum bypass, including analog gauge dial.
One bag with extra O-rings and the acrylic window for the gas feedthrough itself
Silena Quad Bias Supply 7710
4 imperial spanners for Swagelok
2 Notebooks (common one and daid's one)

A couple scans from my notes which may be useful.

One discusses alpha energy loss in nominal kitchen foil (~12 um) and also introduces my technique to calibrate a thin (~20 um) SSD.  Sorry I forget which student's thesis it's from, either Sakaguchi of CNS Tokyo or perhaps Dahee Kim of 
Ewha.  They both did alpha measurements in 2015 as memory serves.  It shows we could measure the thickness of the 12.5 um Al foil from Goodfellow with a standard source.

The second is just an email to a colleague about how I went about measuring some foils by weight.  In that case, I want to get an idea on "how much aluminium might be evaporated on the mylar" and I got, I believe, a pretty sensible 
answer.  Of course, I *assumed* that the mylar was the nominal value.

    Cell b : 15um Al exit, 12.5um Al entrance.  L/R ~0.4Torr/hr overnight (in vacuum)

    Cell d : 15um Al exit, 3um Ti entrance. L/R ~ 0.8Torr/hr overnight (in vacuum)

(In testing)

    Cell a : 15um Al exit, undecided which window will be used. At current epoxy on screw in joints for arms of cell. Testing in atmosphere to see if can reach adequate seal with this.

Asked for 5x 100 ug/cm^2 Au.

Each month's notes are attached.  Unfinished business naturally carries over to the next month.

This elog will be updated with new notes as necessary.

NB: These are the notes composed *prior* to the meeting, thus do not include any suggestions or corrections.

From Alex, attached.

Notes from an email:

Tested the chamber with the leak checker.  We got 3.7 x 10^-6 mbar
liters / sec.  I estimate the chamber's leak rate around 1 mbar / 4
hours or so, and I randomly guess its volume is 100 ml.  If I smash
those numbers I get ~10^-5 mbar liters / sec which is a similar order.
I turned off the pumps for the weekend but left the He gas in the
cell.

These are used to connect the gas cell to the target ladder.  We only had the one, and it would be more convenient if each gas cell has its own, to avoid swapping them back and forth.

Drawings attached.

Hi Ruchi,

Could you ask a friend for me to make a measurement with a ruler?  I
attach a PDF you may send along.  It shows a basic picture of the blue
chamber stand, a picture of the broken part, and an arrow with what I
need to know.  Second page of PDF shows what kind of signage should be
on the items of interest.

The steel wheel mounts have two bolts which connect them to the
struts.  We want to know the spacing between the *center* of one bolt
to the second bolt, so that we know the spacing to drill into the new
struts.  There are 4 such steel wheel mounts, two on a pair of struts.

My guess is the value is something around 12 cm give or take.  But I
need a precise value and I forgot to measure it in August.

The chamber stand is located to the beam left of XT01 (Miniball) in
ISOLDE hall, or it was ...

Cheers,
daid

Comments:
====================================================

Objective log on perceived issues.  (As a benchmark, I enumerated 17 such issues on my previous RIB experiment March 2017.)

In no particular order...

1) Sun PC:
  Cannot properly connect to internet, disallowing SSH access
    Important for external monitoring
    Better to control DAQ from ISOLDE data room in case of ISOLDE issues
  Connecting to CERN network screwed with DNS, borking local DNS hence DAQ
  Double mouse clicking often skipped run numbers

2) Vacuum:
  Barely acceptable, and manual gate valve leaked!
    Keep in mind, interlock system showed higher than true values
  44Ti requires a gas cell and vacuum load may increase considerably
    (Chamber needs gas-feedthrough lines and gas-flow control system)
  Cooling lines are known to leak badly

3) SSDs:
  HI detector leak current increased considerably during the run
  Noisy n-n sides
    To be discussed

4) Scalers
  Scalers were made with noisy n-n sides, making interpretation confusing
  We lacked LEMO cables to provided summed p-n scalers

5) Decay halflife
  A simple handheld monitor turned out to be effective for 59Cu
    That won't work for 44Ti ... 

6) Unused aparatus should be minimized
  (Time & money)
  Photodiodes
  ZnS screen / camera
  Manual gate valve (see above)

7) Shift plan/schedule
  No definitive plan -- need pre exp. meeting
  Shift schedule became arbitrary, w/ several flip/flops
  RP requirements limited access to chamber

8) Shift work
  Run log was made with short notice
    Style may not be ideal for data analyst
  Copy/paste errors et al were observed
  Deadtime log was suggested to be added
  (Other issues might be circumvented w/ SSH access to Sun PC)

9) Purpose
  Detail & motivation of exp. was not clear to all members

10) Faraday Cup
  Data taken by TIMBER system, which is better to integrate w/ our DAQ
  	Strange non-physical fluctuations which we like ISOLDE team to resolve
  Timestamp differences of Sun PC and TIMBER PC?

11) Silena HV module
  Module was found to falsely report applied bias

12) Alpha calibration / pulser walkthrough
  Lacking prior to experiment owing to manpower and technical difficulties

13) Sort codes and simulations
  It was common to discuss received vs. expected data w/o fast clear answer

01:14   5, 5, 57k, 7, 886, 1, 971
--> less events on noisy back side of detector, which could be just from detector or can be the target loosing

Fitting those half life data more reasonably... fitted the decay curve with y=a*exp(-b*t)+c to all the data points, comes up with t1/2=(85.8+/-2.6)s

Placed a hand held rad monitor near the faraday cup and took rate readings every 20 seconds, right after inserting the gate valve in front of SEC:

Then fitted this for half life.

Assuming a steady state background of 70 cps, and using the first 7 data points... the half life comes out as 82.1 +/-3.9 s.

Excellent agreement with known halflife of 59Cu.

There is an option to see when the beam is gone if it is due to lasers or due to the accelerator.

- window next to proton requestion switch

- put middle faraday cup in

- switch mass to stable copper 63Cu

- check faraday cup current. should be around 1-3 nA

- switch back to 59Cu

-Faraday Cup out

- further descption is on a piece of paper upstairs

8 good event in first 8 minutes
then laser was optimized, but still 0.1pA beam (almost nothing), called Miguel and he fixed it remotely
Beam back at 08:28:20, so the last 3 minutes there was some beam. Stopped to start a new run.

Comments: 
02:14 realized target current was done, but not long. Stopped Run 85
02:18 send protons to beam dump and then called PS to stop them
02:20 in Knob open application: current was set to 0, Reset, turned ON and was increased with medium steps of
around 10A.  
02:30 target current readout at 438 A (set to 433 A) again. Proton back on target


04:40 Laser quality is decreasing. Watched the bars (green and blue) a while and observed huge fluctuation. 
      Green bar (right) is very low in general, and blue bar (left) is jumping between full and something less of
one half. I thought that should be more stabil.  


04:46 Events in E_a+E_HI-sepctra: 6 event between 67-129MeV (not sure when it last was reset) --> very low event
rate. 
If the beam is running is mainly checked in MIDAS by looking at trigger(0 and 1) and on refresh update of
spectra s3008 (ADC versus channel (s2order) to see new events. n+n-side of detectors still seeing much noise,
which is also obvious in the scalar rates.

Comments: 
02.14 realized target current was down. Should have happened quite recently.
Interestingly, when target current was down (no Cu-beam) the gated and ungated trigger rate was 0, although
Pulser was 2. Is the pulser somehow excluded from the trigger??


====================================================

Tom et al. tuned the trigger this evening, before we began the runs.  (Run 82, or Run 83??)

===TRIGGER===

Trigger condition is: E OR HI/ds

We count the CAMAC OR signals as follows: A,B
    A: Which CAMAC module?  Left to right, 1,2,3,4,5
    B: Which module channel? This is the number engraved on the module by the LEMO output.

==E Definition==
All p-n sides of E detector: 
    RAL 109 discrim cable numbers: 4, 5, 7
       => Corresponds to CAMAC OR Numbers 2,2; 2,1; 3,1, respectively.
    
==HI/ds Definition==
All p-n sides of HI detector: 8, 9, 11
    RAL 109 discrim cable numbers 
       => Corresponds to CAMAC OR Numbers 4,3; 4,2; 5,3, respectively.

ds=Downscale; ds factor is 8 = 2^8 = 256

===SCALARS===

0: Ungated
1: Gated
2: dE (n-n) [Cable 3]
3: E (n-n)  [Cable 6]
4: HI (n-n) [Cable 10]
5: Pulser
6: Clock

===DISCUSSION===
The n-n side of the E detector seems to be noisier than the p-n side.  Thus the p-n side is used for the trigger logic, whilst the n-n side is used for the scalar.

However, there seems to be something confusing about using the p-n side for the true trigger but the n-n side for the scalars.  It means we cannot compare the scalars self-
consistently to each other.  That is, the gated or ungated signals do not have a strong correlation with the individual detector scalars.  In principle if we have enough LEMO 
cables and Fan In/Fan Out modules, we should simply propagate the p-n signals to both the trigger (when relevant, i.e. E detector) and the scalars alike.  For now we don't 
touch anything, though.

Thresholds of RAL amplifiers set to: dE 30mV; E 20 mV, HI 20 mV

ADC offsets calculated using data files R42-r47

ADC gains calculated using data files R26, R30 & R38

Re-sorting data files R26, R30 & R38 using calculated ADC offsets and gains
the 241Am alpha peak centroids are at

E_HI       86  c(3) =  5.380*10/86 = 0.625581
E_alpha   251  c(2) =  5.380*10/251 = 0.214343
dE_alpha 1021  c(1) =  5.380*10/1021 = 0.0526934

Calculate energies (100keV bins) for channel i using 

          e(i) = INT( c(n) * gain(i) * ( data(i) - offset(i) ) + 0.5 )

While changing HI degrader foil to 10um Al, the E detector was investigated, due to previously observed alpha punch-through.
On visual inspection, the E detector appeared to be 1mm in thickness, leading us to believe that instead we were not fully depleting the detector.

The bias supply was investigated, and was found to be supplying a lower voltage (on all channels) than was shown on the display (14V -> 2V in reality, 350V -> 60V in reality).
The bias module was replaced, and the faulty module marked as such.

As a result of this change, the configuration of the detector bias channels has been altered (as ch 2 on new module can't supply >100V).

-------------

New Configuration:

Detector    :  Voltage :  Leakage Current
Ch 1 -  dE :    40 V    :        0.92 uA
Ch 2 -   HI :    14 V    :        2.52 uA
Ch 3 -    E :   350 V   :        3.91 uA

Approximately 5-10% of events overnight were 'bad' i.e. missing TDC data

Checked the CAEN V767 trigger/channel 0 logic (without beam) this morning
and observed that the delayed event trigger was within 20-30ns of trailing
edge of MON2 (trigger accepted). Increased width of MON2 from 100ns to 150ns.

Check whether this change reduces or eliminates 'bad' events when beam 
returns.

Comments: scaler on HI-det: around 10 --> prescaler = 0. Thats why only E trigger. Check if trigger technique
also suits empty frame runs.
          see few dE versus E event --> scattered on target frame (I guess)

0) If target or line drop, STOP THE BEAM!!

1) If you SEE target or line current go down (top right window of monitors next to the corridor): 

Use Knobs open application (monitor below); remember set value; type 0 in set window; click Mode - Reset; click Mode - On. increase current in steps of 100 A

2) If Target or line current off and it happened a while ago

Use Knobs open application (monitor below); type 0 in set window; click Mode - Reset; click Mode - On Use Isolde Target heating GPs application (in monitor below);

from ISOLDE webpage

Screen shots for accumulated data before the target went down.  Should be (at least) runs 53 & 54 inclusive, possibly back to the start of RI beam on CH2 target.

comment: Why is the trigger rate nearly the same with the laser on and off ??!!

> Faraday cup readout at the end of our chamber should change based on whether or not the target is in and also the 59Cu 
beam energy.
> 
> The effect could be as much as 10 to 20%.  At some point, we should check the Faraday cup reading with the CH2 target 
and with the empty target.

For comparison, csd predicts 5.00MeV/u 59Cu?+ -> 4.66MeV/u 59Cu24+ following the 0.5mg/cm2 (CH2)n target

Comments: First laser does not have a red peak at the center, but maybe okay for this shift.
Attaching PSB and GPS screenshots, as we need to monitor them regularly.
At 6:18 to 6:40, we started getting four rings from the PS Booster.  The 1st ring had a fairly low intensity, and the operators later dropped it.  These times were confirmed 
exactly with communication with PS operators.

====================================================

Faraday cup readout at the end of our chamber should change based on whether or not the target is in and also the 59Cu beam energy.

The effect could be as much as 10 to 20%.  At some point, we should check the Faraday cup reading with the CH2 target and with the empty target.

Note that the removal of the supressor reqires the special allen key.

This log entry contains a basic instruction on how to operate the Julabo liquid flow chiller.

There are 5 buttons (left to right): Up/Down, Enter, 1/0.  

To toggle power to the device, use 1/0 (on/off).  NB: This only turns the electronics on, and does not initiate circulation / cooling.

When switched on, it will display sequentially some basic information sequentially.  One may generally ignore these, and wait until it displays the current temperature.

To adjust or check the set point, tap either of Up/Down.  To change the set point, press and hold either up or down.  Release the button when the desired set point is reached, 
and tap up/down to do the fine tuning.

Once the desired set point is entered, the display will return to the current temperature reading.

To turn on circulation / chilling, press and hold Enter (the down/left facing arrow).  One needs to hold this button several seconds.  It is obvious when it begins to operate, as 
it will make more sounds, and additionally the Snowflake LED indicator should turn on (unless the current temperature is lower than the set point, it may simply flash briefly).

The set point can be adjusted while the circulation / chilling is on, as above.

To turn the circulation / chilling off, hold down Enter again for several seconds.

Best to raise the set point to ~20 degrees and wait for it to reach the value, before turning off circulation, and finally the device (0 button).

The iris mounts have 2 superimposed constellations of 3mm mounting holes on them that correspond to those of the S2 detector, however the 85x85 square is missing one hole and the 110x40 rectangle is rotated by 45°. Either constellation may be used. Fixing is intended with M3x16 bolts into 10mm standoffs used to attach the detector to its mount.

Electrical connection is by a 5 pin DuPont connector.  A feedthrough with flying tail ribbon cable inside and M12 5 pin A-coded industrial sensor connector outside for each iris is supplied that should fin in the same flange as the cooling pipes. The connection between the ribbon and the actuator is to be made with the red coded wire on the ribbon to the yellow wire on the actuator such that the visible metallic portion on the pins is visible on the same side of both the male and female connectors when matted.

The control box needs to be mounted outside the chamber and the cables connected to the feedthroughs.

Power is supplied from the 12v PSU provided.

Twiddle knob to make iris open and close...

Notes:

1. When handling the irises it is advisable to leave them in the open position.
2. Don’t get grease on the irises or they will jam up and the actuator is strong enough to destroy them.
3. The actuators contain a small quantity of grease, if this turns out to be an issue with the vacuum I will strip them down and degrease them.
4. The controllers are “tuned” to the actuators so try not to muddle them up. (U and D)
5. When not in use I would suggest removing power from them as they will potentially radiate some RF noise and just made your signals noisier.
6. Datasheet for controller https://s3.amazonaws.com/actuonix/Actuonix+LAC+Datasheet.pdf
7. They have been roughly set so that closed is a 20mmm orifice. If you need to adjust them open the control box and twiddle the pot next to the one next to the USB port (P2 right if you look at the data sheet). Cycle the power and to open and close it again, repeat until the desired orifice is achieved.
8. Pins 1, 4 and 5 of X2 are the feedback potentiometer for the actuators so if you want to know where the actuators are (you think they may have jammed etc.) you can simply measure the voltage between 1 and 4 with the power on or the resistance with the power off

Chamber system needs some kind of name for the documentation.

Overview

The Edinburgh Scattering Chamber is designed for charged-particle induced reaction cross section measurements of astrophysical interest. 

One of its main features is radial symmetry, compatible with the TRIUMF UK Detector Array (TUDA) which mainly uses the Micron S2-type silicon strip detectors (SSDs) placed downstream of the target.

The geometric similarity between the two setups allows the employment of similar hardware such as preamplifier PCBs, cooling plates, etc.

The arrangement allows for a large solid-angle coverage for light-ion detection (> 50% of 4-pi in the centre-of-mass frame), light ion particle identification by the deltaE-E method.

At present, our interests are aimed at neutron-deficient, medium-mass beams.

In this case and with the use of a thin target, beam-like recoils can also be detected further downstream by an additional S2 detector in coincidence with light ions with a typical efficiency >25% (depending on the precise geometry).

An adjustable target slider can hold up to ten targets (generally thin-film samples like CH_2, collimators, beam diagnostic devices ...), and we have plans to accommodate a windowed gas cell in the future to serve as a helium target. A CMOS pinhole camera is also provided to allow viewing of targets which will mainly be used in conjunction with a ZnS screen for beam tuning.

The end of the chamber is equipped with a detachable Faraday cup to assist with beam tuning and monitoring the beam intensity during experimental runs (depending on the radioactive beam intensity).

Chamber Design

The chamber is welded aluminium construction in the form of 2 barrels connected coaxially with flanges on each end. The barrels and flanges are secured with M14 bolts and sealed with ISO 400 centring O-rings.

The chamber is designed to be connected to the downstream port of the existing Scattering Chamber Experiments (SEC) installed at HIE-ISOLDE beam line XT03 by a KF50 port on the upstream end of the chamber. This connection has a turbo pump mounted on it to ensure that the vacuum exposed to the downstream systems is as low as possible. Further additions to the connection are a constrained bellow to take up any misalignment, an electrical break to prevent ground loops and a gate vale to allow the chamber to be opened without exposing the beam line to atmosphere.

All of this enables us to shoot through the SEC and have a minimal impact on other existing experimental setups.

The chamber is cylindrical and can be opened on the downstream side by sliding the end flange in the beam direction.

The end flange is mounted perpendicular to a sliding support structure, so that the chamber can be opened and serviced without the use of an overhead crane nor any requirements of heavy lifting. 

Internally, the majority of the equipment is mounted on four rods installed on the inside of the end flange, which extend the full length of the chamber when sealed are supported by complimentary receiving sockets on the inner side of the upstream chamber end flange.

The chamber and its associated equipment (chiller, electronics racks) are fitted with wheels for easy positioning, enabling the chamber to be connected and disconnected from the XT03 beamline with relative ease.

The support structure is more than twice as long as the chamber itself, so that the chamber can be fully opened and easily serviced. This results in the chamber being stable in in the fore/aft direction but due to the height of the beam line and a preference for a small footprint the top heavy nature of the chamber and support it is potentially unstable in the side to side direction. To alleviate this outriggers are installed on the bottom of the upstream and downstream structure with retractable wheels. The wheels can be fully lowered when the chamber needs to be relocated, and otherwise the wheels are kept installed with minimal floor clearance to provide mechanical support in the beam left or right directions should the need arise (e.g. to prevent accidental tipping).

Targets:

Targets are mounted on NSF CP Type 3 frames and theses are in turn mounted on a ladder with 10 positions (this ladder will also accommodate NBI Type 2 frames). The ladder also has holes to accept 2 Hamamatsu photo diodes for beam tuning.

Targets used are polyethylene foils as a proton target (CH2) and carbon foils for background subtraction.  The polyethylene foils are two sandwiched foils of ~150 ug/cm^2 (300 ug/cm^2 total) are custom-manufactured by Paul Morrall of the STFC Daresbury Laboratory, while the carbon foils were bought commercially from Arizona Carbon Foil Co.

A silver/copper doped ZnS target is also provided for beam-spot viewing.

Collimators with various opening apertures (phi 1 mm to 10 mm) are also placed on the target slider to assist during beam tuning.

Detector Mounts

The SSDs and preamplifiers are mounted on opposite sides of one (or more) metallic disk(s), which can then in turn be mounted on the four support rods provided inside the chamber. 

Only the detector is located on the front side of the disk, so that it is impossible for the beam to directly strike any of the electronics.

Thus, the printed circuit board, preamplifiers, and cooling plates are located on the beam downstream side of the support disk.

The preamplifiers are housed inside the vacuum chamber during normal operation, as this enables us to reduce the cable path length between the detectors and preamplifiers while allowing the chamber itself to serve as a Faraday cage, which both reduce the electronic noise.

However, electronics in a vacuum have only limited means to cool, thus we use a forced-flow external refrigeration system to cool the preamplifiers. This takes the form of a chiller using a 50/50 mixture of ethanol and water as the heat transfer medium, operated between -5 and -10 degrees when the preamplifiers are under vacuum.

To protect the detectors during beam tuning remote controlled irises are fitted to each detector.

Detectors and photodiode also have provision for degrader foils to be mounted in front of them.

We prepared several Al degrader foils purchased commercially from Goodfellow Inc.  All foils were tested to be light-tight prior to and after mounting.  All foils are mounted on 1 mm thick Al stock with vacuum-rated epoxy, left to dry for 24 hours for proper curing.  Foils prepared for the photodiode have an opening of 1 cm diameter and include 10, 15 and 20 um nominal thicknesses.  Foils prepared for the heavy ion detection with Micron S2 DSSDs have an opening of ~72 mm in diameter are 6, 10, 15, and 20 um nominal thicknesses; these foils have a 20 mm diameter gap punched in the center, to avoid being struck directly by (and thus scattering) the beam.

Associated hardware

The chamber is complimented with a vacuum system comprising mainly of a 500l/s turbo pump and dry scroll pump in addition as previously mentioned a small turbo is provided on the beam line connection and shares the scroll pump. Various gauges provide monitoring of the pressure in the chamber from atmosphere down to 10^-6mbar.

2 off 42U 19” racks provide space for amplifiers and diagnostic equipment. The amplification chain consists of:

  1) RAL 109 8 channel amplifier and discriminators (24 units) with custom power supplies;

  2) Analog signals are sent to Silena ADCs in a VME

  3) Discriminator signals are split, one line sent to one of five Logic Shaped Outputs, which feed to logical signal processing in a NIM crate generating the trigger signal for the DAQ

  4) The second of the split discriminator signals are sent to a CAEN V767 TDC in the VME crate.

The data are then collected and processed on a Sun Microsystems Tower via an ethernet hub which relays the data via a Silena 9419 ACQ Controller in the VME crate.

Remote control of the irises is performed with a custom control unit powered by a 12V PSU

To provide power to all the systems 3 power strips, 10 way each, are used. Nominally one provides power to pumps and vacuum systems, one preamps and 19" rack equipment, and the last one computers and test equipment. The total load of the system is approximate 15A @ 230V. All power is distributed through BS1363 plugs and distribution boards that are fitted with SEV 1011 plugs for local power compatibility. All equipment categorised as IEC 61140 Class 1 is therefore earthed through their power connections. The chamber is electrically isolated from the beam line by an electrical break and from its frame by nonconductive spacers. The chamber forms part of the electromagnetic noise protection for the detectors so is electrically connected to the electronics.

All equipment has been tested for electrical safety at Edinburgh before sending to CERN.

See entry https://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk/ISOLDE/28 for a full description, but editing the same elog is altering attachment numbers etc.

Here I've added 20 um foil as well as 5.3 MeV/u (~313 MeV) 59Cu beam.

The first set is 59Cu(p,alpha)56Ni showing 56Ni in the heavy ion detector, with different beam energies and Al degrader foil thicknesses.

The second set is for 59Cu(12C,12C)59Cu scattering.

--original email text--
Using Claudia's code, I added a layer of Al foil before the heavy ion
silicon detector.  The attached plots correspond to the heavy ion
portion of fig 3(a) in the proposal.  Thus it only uses ground-state
transitions and doesn't account for geometry or efficiency etc.  I opt
to show only the highest and lowest beam energies for each simulation.

As I said before, something between 10 and 20 um of Al was likely to
be the correct choice, which is confirmed.  10 um is almost to thin to
guarantee the signals are below 200 MeV, while for 20 um we start
having issues of detecting the lowest energy recoils for the low
energy run.

We can discuss the selection in more detail at the next meeting, but
most probably we can just use some kitchen foil, adopting whatever its
thickness of 13 to 15 um depending what we find.

The attached file starts with no degrader, then adds 10 um Al, and 1
um Al steps up to 20 um.

--Updated 2 Oct to include 5 um ~ 10 um--

As ~185 MeV is the maximum energy, but the gain resistors may vary by up to ~10%, then the 'maximium safe energy' is about 160 MeV.  This we can get for the highest energy run 
with 15 um Al (we have it in stock); however, then the lowest energy case becomes about 30 MeV, or less than 1 MeV/u, which may be an issue for straggling etc.  So we will 
prepare two foils, as it is seen even for the low energy beam, it comes almost to 190 MeV without a degrader foil.  In fact, any foil thickness between 5 ~ 10 um may be okay 
(we have 8 um in stock).  

Using also all 5 energies (212, 236, 260, 277, 295) then we see that the two lowest energies are okay for 8 um foil, and the three highest energies are suitable for 15 um foil.

NB: 19 Oct I deleted 15 um (previously attachment 2) and now it is attachment 8.  

Note that the beam energy order (right to left, left to right) differs between the first PDF and the second two.

--4 Oct--
Existing 8um Al foils are not the right size.  Check 6 um and 10 um in detail, as we have more stock of these two.  Attached.

--12 Oct--

Attachments 5-7 show the 59Cu energy after the degrader foils for elastic (12C,12C) scattering.  Foil thicknesses are 6, 10, 15 um of Al, respectively.  Note that the angular 
range shows up to 15 degrees (larger than the case of the (p,a)).

How to protect the S2s during beam tuning?
     Can the ISOLDE operators easily restore beam optics settings or not?
     (Determines if we can do all the beam tuning at once or if we have to separate them)
     Controlable iris aka Star Wars door -- contact Simon Fox at York

Dynamic range of the preamps is only maximum 200 MeV, so we need a foil to degrade the heavy ion energy

Gain resistors for up to three dynamic range settings

Checking some server settings for the elog system regarding the email notification.

And testing updating an elog.


Testing again...

Status of Beamline XT03 at HIE-ISOLDE:

Scattering chamber (1m*1m) will be put in place in next two weeks. They are just waiting for separate crane, which will be mounted on the wall.
(Reason is, that the roof crane can only go down in the middle for XT03, because it is the end of the hall)

The scattering chamber will take place at the gray surface with all tube connector.
The end of scattering chamber is ISO 100. Do we have the right adapter for the tube to connect?

The scattering chamber, with a lot of electronics inside, has a pressure of something E-06 mbar, so our pressure should fit well.

Our faraday cup was asked to have the possibility to monitor if we getting beam or not.

Behind the scattering chamber there will be a setup for Neutron Time of Flight experiment on C15 in the end of august and on 9/10Li in the end of October 2017.
The setup length will be additional 5-6 meters (close to left end of the poster/wooden box on picture).

Offline Setup:

Offline Setup next to parallel wall will probably not be possible due to the other setup, but there is at least 2-3m*4-5m space on the wall, where the beam line points to (corner). We just have to leave some space that people can access the crane ladder.
No specific time was discussed, because the current setup has to first installed.

Alignment:

The Tools are mounted at the wall (2 points) and are setup in the corner (stand from bottom). It is an electronic system, no further details from Karl, but contact has been established.

Beam Height:

Beam height is 1.75m. We will bring our own metal frame for support. What is our height (range) at the moment?

For Offline test we can have an alpha source.

Power plug: SWISS standard à need ADAPTERs

3 normal plugs per grounded access point (with C16 fuse). For offline testing we can easily use 1-2 access points, which would be enough.

Near the installation place at the beamline are also 2 access points, which we will share with the scattering chamber. In case we also use extension to the offline ones, although safety regulation allow no cables on the floor, so we always have to use cable guides above. (I´m not sure how they deal with power cables…)

Next point: cables guide are used, so we have to bring longer BNC cables and the other long ribbon cables.

No camacs crates are spotted at the moment by Karl, which we could use.

No OIL pumps are allowed anymore at HIE – ISOLDE. Our roughing pump and Turbo pump are working without oil, aren´t they?

Grounded crates??

Expectations:

They want to have a drawing of our setup (chamber including metal frame, crates, vacuum pipes, water cooling, … maybe add work place with PC)  

And all the SAFETY Regulation papers should be prepared.

Important!!! Everything is temporary:

 There are daily changes in the setup at XT03 with scattering chamber and neutron TOF setup in the next week and when ISS chamber will be installed, the odds and ends near the wall and the corner will hopefully disappear, so we will have a better picture how much space in the end will be there.

I will visit ISOLDE in the beginning of June again to see the progress.

Forgot to ask:

Any special placement for water cooling or can we still use shortest possible distance to chamber?

I asked IT about putting the elog name into the email subject line (useful for those of us subscribed to more than one elog).  They said they enabled it for ISOLDE.  Let's test 
to see!

Another test (June 1st)

status of the setup - 07/04/2017

status of the setup - 21/04/2017

1) DAQ

We have 192 channels to DAQ working. Mirco will test the silicon detectors with an alpha source in the next 2 weeks. 

2) Vacuum

In the moment we reach 6E-6. There are still 2 tiny leaks. There will be an extra turbo for the upstream beam line which should improve the vacuum for ISOLDE purposes. 
We need to check how fast we can pump down as might need to open the chamber between tuning and beam time (detectors need to be protected from tune beam).

3) Alignment

Alignment of the sample positions can be done here (Mirco/Peter). Claudia will contact Karl about a survey team for alignment at ISOLDE. Then we can talk to them directly.

4) Shipping

We aim to ship the setup to CERN by the end of March. We will try to go over to CERN for initial setup middle of April (to be confirmed with Karl)

5) Equipment needed from CERN

Claudia will ask Karl about availability of a CAMAC crate and 2 NIM bins. 

6) Safety

Peter will order safety boots and hard hats. 
Those who do not have ISOLDE access need to attend the ISOLDE radiation protection course. 

7) Availability for Preparations

Tom not here: 25 March - 3 April, 25 April - middle June
Daid not here: until middle June ?

8) Samples CH2, CD2

Paul has new batch and should send alpha spectra soon.

ACCIDENT Registered on Sunday 09/04/17 ~10 am:
Power went down due to wiring problem
Tom C. closed valves, but chamber was probably already vented to atmosphere. 
During power shut down roughing and turbo pump slowed down and turbo probably deaccelerate against atmosphere.
Possible back flows.

Tinkering with configs for SYMPA email server to see if the elog info is sent to the mailing list or not

Normally it is sent by ELog@jast.ph.ed.ac.uk and I changed it to "restricted to local domain and subscribers" from "restricted to subscribers" under Edit List Config > Who can

Here I am simply digitizing my notes from our visit to CERN 17~18 January 2017.  They may not be perfectly linear or organized, but may be searchable.

==ISOLDE Hall Info==

*Safety shoes and hard hats are required for everyone.  We need to buy our own in the future and bring them with us.

The 'general purpose scattering chamber' seems to in fact be named the Scattering Experiments Chamber (SEC).
     Contact Joakim Cederkall at Lund University in Sweden joakim.cederkall@cern.ch (DK has collaborated with him before in 2012)
     Secondary contact olof.tendblad@cern.ch

2 meters downstream of SEC we see the SAND neutron detector array.
     Contact Ismael Martel at University of Huelva in Spain ismael.martel.bravo@cern.ch
     Array structure is on wheels, but needs to be moved before our experiment, presumably by someone from that collaboration
          Of course, we don't know after the SEC relocation from station 2 to station 3 that SAND will be installed in the same relative position or not

SEC has eight (8) transverse ports evenly spaced about its circumference
     We need adapters to connect to this
     The nominal ISOLDE beamline pipe is 50 mm diameter
     Chamber itself is about 1 meter in diameter, about 70 cm tall.  Shape is a cylindrical prism with hemispheres on top and bottom
     Calculated volume about 0.55 cubic meters
     Support structure is about 1 x 1 square meter footprint, about 125 cm tall
     2 large-volume pumps in parallel.
          TMP: PTM 5400 ALCATEL CORP x2
          Oil roughing pumps Edwards 12 x2
     According to Karl, its pressure is in the low 10^-6 mbar region, but everything seemed off when we visited so cannot confirm precise value
     Presumably it requires the overhead crane to open it
          Not many people have the license
          Although we don't need to access it very often if at all
          Karl said they are arguing to install a small fixed crane for that purpose after relocation which wouldn't need a license
     SEC is being disconnected over the weekend (21~22 Jan)
         
Alignment in ISOLDE Hall (not very sensible to write w/o diagram)
     POT1, POT2 are on the wall downstream of the beam lines
     POT3 and POTREX are on the beam-right side before it is turned and delivered to the target stations
     Geodetic survey points -- though we don't really know how they are used

Downstream of station 3 (under construction) is XT03 which is a crosshair on the wall
     Presume it was used for alignment of the steering magnet base
          Bases are installed but the quadrupoles are still off to the side

There is no port on the station 2 bending magnet to offer a straight line of sight down to the target station
     How was the alignment performed?
     We assume station 3 will be installed in a similar manner, unfortunately.

Station 3
     Expected to be complete by the end of February

Station 2
     HELIOS-type device will be installed at station 2
     This is presently called ISS and is mainly being done by the Swedish group (Lund?)
     Footprints were drawn on the ground downstream of the present SEC point
     How much space will the fence to prohibit near-approach for B-field safety be?

Distances around the stations
     From the target positions to the far wall is over 10m, though a lot of equipment and storage lines the wall area
     Beam-right wall from station beam-line 3 is about 180 cm
     7 m to station 2 -> ~5 m between station 2 and 3
     End of station #2 to the end of the SEC including the beam pipe is ~210 cm

At some point, we must provide a list of items ot be imported and used so it can be approved by the CERN Safety groups

==Meeting notes with Karl Johnston==

HIE-ISOLDE may begin physics around the last week of June (say 24~25th)
     A MINIBALL experiment is usually prioritized first, given the track record and existing infrastructure and experience.

From the end of April there will be about 2 months of commissioning, ideally
     Though, in years past, the timeline was too tight and commissioning was basically not performed during this period

They will start the cryogenics on Tuesday, 24th January

ISS will start to be installed in May for about 3 weeks (? hand writing and detail of notes is poor on this point)

Anytime in mid-March should be okay for the Edinburgh group to ship

59Cu is a candidate for an early run this year
     As soon as early July perhaps in an ideal world
