|
Cross-section for capture and ionisation of 206Pb81+ with H2 gas jet target are calculated using GLOBAL code.
The ionisation (on CsISiPHOS) and capture (on MWPC) trigger rates are calculated for 206Pb81+ beam with 10^6 particles revolving in ESR ~2 MHz frequency
with H2 gas jet target density ~ 10^14 particles/cm3. |

Alex and Pierre-Michel applied 1500 V to the anode and adjusted the threshold in Messhute.
x1 signal was small & noisy and rest of the signals were fine. |

|
The following shows the pattern for first measurement in ESR (gas jet is on for = 60*5 secs = 300 secs as it can be seen on step SC7 in pattern).
One injection cycle runs for ~ 6 mins. |

In the picture below, a very nice storage of 206Pb81+ at 200 mA electron cooler current for no gas jet target can be seen in ESR. The measurement started
at 02:24 and we will now finish it in 5-10 mins. We will now do two more measurements for I_cooler = 10 mA ans 20 mA. |

In the ESR picture below, the decay of beam is very fast initially for few minutes and then the decay is constant. But why does it decay for first few minutes

Mon Mar 30 20:51:06 2020, Ragan, Detectors, Bias Voltage for Si-pads
|
The limit of the leakage current for all Si pads was increased from 1500 nA to 5000nA and
leakage current was recorded for different Bias Voltages (32V, 35V, 40V, 45V, 50V, 55V
and 60V).
