  85   Fri Mar 20 16:54:53 2020 JanDAQBaF OFF downscaled red=32 
I introduced a downscaling by a factor of 2^5=32 for the BaF2 during target OFF.
The reason is, that we get a lot reasonable x-ray counts (K-alpha, K-REC) outside target ON phase.
So i want to minimize our deadtime during target OFF, to be able to use the data efficiently if needed.
BaF2 is not really needed in target OFF.
  86   Fri Mar 20 16:58:02 2020 JanDAQXray2 & Xray3 cabling 
We found that Xray2 and Xray3 the cabling is not consistent:

90 degree detector 
> E_Xray2 for energy
> t_Xray3 for times

145 degree detector
> E_Xray3 for energy
> t_Xray2 for timing

35 degree detector
> E_Xray1
> t_Xray1

We can run like this, but should be aware of it!
  149   Sat Mar 21 22:57:28 2020 Laszlo, JanDAQchanging cables of the Xray 90 and 145 
Energy signals of 90 and 145 degree detector have been checked and exchanged
They were connected to the wrong ADC channel.

Now 
E_Xray2 and t_Xray2 should belong to 90 degree
E_Xray3 and t_Xray3 belong to 145 degree

  297   Fri Apr 30 10:55:34 2021 Jan GloriusDAQXray multi-triggers - blocking gate2021
From the CFD of Xray1 (90deg) we get multiple trigger signals every ~5sec for unknown reasons. 
No hint from the preamp signals.

The solution now is to have an extended blocking gate active in the trlo-config of node 2.
There is now a trigger_stretch of 2500ns for all Xray triggers:

trig_stretch(1)  = 2500ns;
trig_stretch(2)  = 2500ns;
trig_stretch(3)  = 2500ns;

This prevents the multiple triggers to reach the lmu (before_dt scalers)
However, this will also lead to a very small loss of good signal triggers that overlay within 2.5 us.

This has to be taken into account for deadtime determination.

The unpacker used for the production runs of E127b is located at 
/u/litv-exp/unpacker/unpackexps/e127_TO_2021_with_ECL

It is also aliased for litv-exp user as: E127_unpack

This is for the data structure as documented here:
https://elog.gsi.de/esr/E127/346

As of now, this is compiled for ROOT v6-18-04 located here:

Attached are the theory K-REC cross sections as calculated by Andrey Surzhykov (August 2021).

They are done for 118Te52+ on H2 at 7.049 and 6.042 MeV/u as well as for 124Xe54+ on H2 at 7.049 MeV/u.


first column - photon angle (deg), second column - cross section (barn/sr). The results are given already in the laboratory frame.

Comment of Andrey on uncertainty:
Important question about theoretical model and, hence, accuracy of calculations. I used slightly improved "impulse approximation" that takes into account momentum and energy distribution of target electron (in initial state). By playing with the models for the Compton profile of target electron, I estimate the accuracy of calculations as 1 %. To be fair, it is rather conservative estimate. I suspect that for large emission angle (around 90 deg) accuracy is even better. But let us stay with 1 %.
