  71   Sat Apr 2 22:43:36 2022 Carsten Ring set-up for 229/89+, scraped and bunched, Iel=500mA at injection and 100mA during measurment
The ring SIS/ESR were set up for 229/89+. Pölease note that this not only 1e- Th but ponteially also the isobars of Ac (0e-1)/Pa(2e-, strongest) and U(3e-).
SIS eenrgy plus 3.5 MeV/u w.r.t. to the 238U92+ settings. We nearly don't see any of the primary beam in the ring
Cooling energy is 208998 KeV (read from the ESR multimeter).
The positioning of the scrapers is automatized but needs to be checked again tomorrow.
In order to allow for a longer measurment time, the electron curent is 500mA only during injection but is decreased to 100mA during measurement (=> longer beam lifetime).

 
 
  72   Sat Apr 2 23:16:55 2022 Carsten Cu mirror and CsI moved in and out of the ring
Ken tested the Cu-mirror and CsI disk Detector. They move without a problem and don't scrape the ion beam.
  73   Sun Apr 3 00:41:45 2022 Ken Ueberholz  Xuv-Detektor Signale
The Xuv-detector cabel channels seem to be 
wrongly labeled in the Messhütte (see 
picture) and are propably also wrongly 
connected. Need to be relabeled and reconnected either in the 
messhütte or in the laserlab. I will look for the best 
solution tomorrow morning.

I co controlled all detector signals and 
adjusted the threshold to be just above 
the noise. I will double check this when 
the detector can be moved in and we have a 
beam. 
  126   Thu Apr 7 04:48:58 2022   ToDo's for 07.04.
Some ToDo's for the next shift:
- Work on  Laser stabilisation 2nd stage in the ESR
- Mesytec power supply of the xuv-detector crashed and needs to be restarted in the ESR. Simply turning it the crate off and on again)!!
- Fix wavemeter fluctuates
- Compare MBS event size of DAQ 1 ("by laser group") and DAQ 2 ("by Carsten"), DAQ 1 data size was ~2 times larger than DAQ 2 data size.
- Use lmd-files measured last night to test Go4-Analysis.
- Practice measurement procedure with beam, see Message ID: 124.

We were searching for a difference of a factor of twoin both DAQs. It turns out that the default value for the MBSstream server task is scale=2. In the main task this value is explicately set to scale=1. we will now (starting with filenumber: 0078) restart the 2nd DAQ with set stream_serv scale=1.

Also TDC is disabled.
From file number 0076 in DAQ2 : ADC thresholds:

Before the next scan, we realized, that the laser destabilized. For the rest of the shift we tried to get laser back online (see ID:149).

We crosschecked the last measurements from the nightshift for reference measurements.
Now the ESR group start switching to 1 bunch.
