 Wed Jun 18 20:24:01 2025, Carsten, Shahab, Ragandeep, Danyal et al. (the dayshift) and ESR crew, Accelerator, 229Th89+ identification 
|
We believe to have identified the 237U92+ and the 229Th89+ peaks.
Using the Schottky resonator at about 244 MHz and taking the 123rd harmonic:

|
For PID with rionid we used:
- LISE file from last year (attached.
- .npz file from 410 RSA (attached). |

Wed Jun 18 14:01:40 2025, Julien, Konstantin, Stefan, Rima, , Ion bunch on PMTs
|
| Apparentlty did not work yesterday evening (no signal), but looks fine now (see attachment) |
|
Wed Jun 18 11:44:15 2025, Julien, Konstantin, Stefan, Rima, , Jitter CFD
|
Pulses on photodiodes in entry 20
1. seem wide, so we also looked at qswitch signal; also seemes wide.

Wed Jun 18 08:07:17 2025, Julien, Konstantin, Laser, new FCU Calibration
|
UV power was not stable but dropping from ~18 mW to 13 mW after opening COBRA shutters.
New calibration of frequency conversion unit:

Wed Jun 18 07:59:00 2025, Julien, Konstantin, Laser, Phase-offset
|
We recognized that the output power of the pump laser was instable when externally triggered with 200kHz (stand-bye frequency of ESR). Therefore, we changed
the coarse timing offset of the pockels cell trigger compared to the flash lamp pulse from 215µs to 219.9µs.
Thereby, the output power increased from ~600mJ to 620mJ, and the PTP stability improved from 15% to 10%. The RMS stability improved from 2% to 1.2 %. |

Wed Jun 18 03:12:25 2025, Rodolfo, Laser, Beam Stabilization
|
The laser beam pointing has changed, even thought the MRC settings are the same as given in Entry 5 (this elog). This could be caused by a droping of the
laser output energy which is now 13,8 mJ @275 nm |

Wed Jun 18 01:58:02 2025, Esther, Alexis, Anton, Rodolfo, Carsten, Accelerator, No Bunched Beam
|
| The Bunching is not set properly. We do not see the ion bunch with the Photomultiplier. |

Wed Jun 18 00:56:28 2025, Carsten, Rodolfo, Anton, Alexis, Esther, , beam overlap with t-scrapers
|
When testing the overlap between laser and ion beam we observed the following positions:

|
We have some issues with the RIO computer R4l-41 (DAQ1). We had to switch off completely twice. Only then it reacted properly. Maybe a problem with the
network at about 00:00 o'clock? |

|
| The gate generator of the Q-switch signal for the Vuprom TDC was set to 10ms. |
|
Tue Jun 17 09:32:00 2025, Konstantin, DAQ, Meda data acquisition
|
The metadata provided by Medusa (Labview channels in former times) are now labelled correctly in Go4.
Most important data are "Cobra Set WL", "WS7 Meas WL", "PTB U scal", "Ohmlabs U scal", which correspond to the set wavelength, measured wavelength, voltage
measured at the PTB divider, and voltage measured at the Ohmlabs divider.

Mon Jun 16 22:27:01 2025, Carsten, Simon, DAQ, Thresholds
|
We also adjusted the thresholds for the mesytic.
Doing that, we noticed that one of the trafos is broken (5th row, middle).

Mon Jun 16 21:47:23 2025, Carsten, Wilfried, Simon , Detectors, New threshold values for PMTs
|
We adjusted the thresholds for the PMTs and increased the voltage of PMT middle to 2.7kV

|
The laser control software (Medusa) is hosted on the Windows PC ATPPC023. First connect via the command
atplaser@lxg1297:~$ [B]xfreerdp /w:2500 /h:1400 /u:atplaser /v:atppc023.campus.gsi.de[/B]

Thu Jun 12 16:27:45 2025, Carsten, DAQ, NTCAP directory
|
On the NTCAP the directory is changed to
Q:/E0052 |
|
Thu Jun 12 15:53:13 2025, Carsten, DAQ, data directory and backup disk (WDBook2 RAID)
|
The data of DAQ1 are stored in the following directory and with the following filenames
open file /data.local2/2025_229Th/2025_229ThDAQ1_ -auto -rfio

Wed Jun 11 17:33:04 2025, Carsten, Jan, DAQ, DAQ2 - new computer , new directories (lxg0155 doesn't work reliably)
|
LXG0155 (used in form er beamtimes) crashes and hangs and hangs eventually.
Lgx0155 is shut-down and is replaced by [B]lxg3113[/B].
