more screen shots of RSAs.

Screenshots of RSAs showing acquisition settings, for documentation, they show the time / date on the bottom left, in case needed for data analysis.
  329   Wed Apr 9 11:18:27 2025 EstherDAQNTCAP off, RSA triggers disconnected
The NTCAP computer and crate are switched off.
The triggers are disconnected from the RSAs, but they remain on.
  328   Wed Apr 9 11:09:48 2025 WolframGeneralThanks to everybody for their committment to perform this experiment
  327   Wed Apr 9 11:03:48 2025 Yuri, Sergey, EstherGeneralFinal Injection
> The a final injection from SIS18 stored at 10:04.
> The scrapers were moved out before to get the maximum intensity.
> NTCAP is still running, the RSAs recorded the last files at 10:04.
> The plan is to keep running like this for about an hour.

Beam stopped at 10:58.
NTCAP and RSAs are stopped.
  326   Wed Apr 9 10:24:54 2025 Yuri, Sergey, Nikos, EstherGeneralFinal Injection
The a final injection from SIS18 stored at 10:04.
The scrapers were moved out before to get the maximum intensity.
NTCAP is still running, the RSAs recorded the last files at 10:04.
The plan is to keep running like this for about an hour.

  324   Wed Apr 9 09:30:14 2025 YuriGeneralSlit changing
I would like to close E01 slits a bit more and get 30 min of data with higher 
resolving power.

EEX scraper from -10 now -1
E01 unchanged
  323   Wed Apr 9 06:47:51 2025 Esther, NikosGeneralBrief beam interruptions
There was no beam from SIS between about 06:28 and 06:39.

Again from 07:02 to 07:11.

And again from 07:49 to 07:55.
  322   Wed Apr 9 00:08:30 2025 Sergey, Yuri and XinliangGeneralMove of the scraper positions at ESR
From roughly … to 0:05AM, Sergey moved GEEXDS1HA (not 
changed 
in the end) and GE01DS3HG (changed from -85 to -80 mm) to reduce 
the acceptance of the ESR to improve the mass resolution.

After the change, there are less small traces appearing in the 
413.55735 MHz +/-5 kHz range. 

The final positions of the two scrapers are 
GEEXDS1HA :-10 mm; GE01DS3HG:-80 mm.
  321   Tue Apr 8 23:08:15 2025 Sergey Litvinov, Xinliang YanGeneralTuning of the ion optics
From roughly 10:45 pm to 11:05 pm,  Sergey tuned the 
ion optics of the ESR to see if the mass resolution at 
413.55735 MHz improves or not. Please note that the 
frequencies of ions during the tuning process are not 
stable.

Q-magnets and S-magnets have been adjusted, see 
accelerator E-logs ID-844 titled ‘ ESR seting for 
204Pt77+’ created by Sergey.

The beam was stopped for the evaluation accelerator tour. RSAs and NTCAP stopped now.
  316   Tue Apr 8 13:47:33 2025 Cagla, MichaelGeneralLassie Screenshots
New sextupole settings at 13.45.
The beam will be stopped at 14.10 until around 7 pm.

  312   Tue Apr 8 12:08:56 2025 siddharthAnalysisSigma vs Mean Freq. Plot for 188Hf72+ setting 2
This is sigma vs Freq plot for 188Hf72+ made out of 1hr of injections post Saturday, April 5th. 
The 2nd photo Compares the resolution of 188Hf setting by looking at peaks of 205Au and 205Pb which are very close in frequency range. The resolution in the second 188Hf72+ setting(on Right) seems much better as two peaks can be seen clearly.
