beam: 124Xe54+

we run at MAX INTENSITY as we can: SIS was increased to its top, but unfortunately we still end up with 1.5e9 at injection from SIS. Sergey also optimized some stuff.

purpose: data with TARGET ON and SCRAPER OFF --> this leakage current spikes associated with primary scattering from the scraper edge seem to disappear, but we get still 10kHz rate on the detector a few sec after injection(this small "bump" 
after the peak in the Si current - see the picture below)

  47   Sun Mar 15 17:12:40 2020 Laszlo, JanDetectorsnew Ortec spec amps  
We are now using new SpecAmps for the x-ray detectors from ORTEC, they deliver much improved resolution but have other strange effects as discribed in the next entry.
  48   Sun Mar 15 17:13:21 2020 Laszlo, JanCalibrationthe x-ray gate issue 
We found a strange behaviour of our ADC gates for the x-ray detectors.
The setting as shown in the foto below corresponds to a delay of 5 us and a gate length of 15 us.
This is the only setting that produces nice spectra, even though the signals and gate are not aligned.
The setting is extremely sensitive to the delay 4 us still works but 3 or 7 us give already reduced energy values and beyond these values the spectra disapears.

For now it was decided to operate with this not-understood settings because the result is pretty good...
However, further investigation to understand whats happening would be desirable.

Additional note:
This effect appeared after using the new ortec SpecAmps. Before this we used old Tennelec Amps which delivered horrible resolution, but the gates and signals could be matched as expected at this time.
