• Start 9th August, access to EAR-2 11 am earliest but can start in rack area before
• Setup to be used: 1 dE (16 strips, 20 um thickness) + 1 E (16x16 strips, 150 um thickness. We have a spare for each thickness
• Sample and detectors to be mounted on the same flange

Things to check:

• alignment with beam centre (lasers and/or gafchromics foils)
• is the setup stable to knockes, can all detector / sample positions be well reproduced when making changes

Once setup us completed:

• checks with pulser
• mounf LiF sample number 3 and run with neutron beam
• check that all strips have signals
• confirm shape of gamma flash and that short times can be anaysed in both detectors (~1.8 us after flash)

If everything working:

• measure LiF-3 and the switch to Al-26
• towards end of the run we can also measure B-3 and the empty brass frame (Frame without mylar)
• proton statistics: 1E17 LiF-3, 1F17 B-3, ~3E17 Empty, 5.5 E18 Al-26

Travel times

Nick: 8-16, Annie 8-12, Tom, 7 -?, Claudia, 8-10, Emmanuel asap until end of run

Measurement runs until Octover 2nd. Disassembly by Nick and Emmanuel.

additional trips during the measurement as required (if something breaks/fails etc. )

Attached: photos of previous setup

TO Do: MCA availability at nTOF for quick noise checks (Nick)

            how many  channels in 14 bit, how many 12 bit (Nick)

          depletion voltages   for detectors (Tom)

          Register the eqipment at CERN as Edinburgh property (Claudia)
