Entry  Wed Apr 6 21:03:25 2022, Ken Ueberholz , Detectors, Xuv-Detektor, further information  xuv_detektor.pdf
Some further information regarding the 
xuv-detector and its components.

The UV-LED of Münster was connected over 
channel 8 to the Messhütte. 6V are 
supplied by the power supply (picture 2). 
Entry  Wed Apr 6 18:51:33 2022, Danyal & Carsten, Accelerator, target bump 
This afternoon, we found out that Sergey has also implemented a "target bump". 
Although we do not use a target, this bump is still convenient because 
we can move the ion beam such that is passes perfectly through the Cu mirror.

Entry  Wed Apr 6 15:19:29 2022, Svea, Shahab, Accelerator, 5s delay implemented before injection 
Operators have informed us that for better stability and operation (and cooperation with HHT), and after discussing with Sergey, they have introduced 5s
delay "Wartezeit RESET" before every injection.

We are T-scraping the ion beam.

Entry  Wed Apr 6 09:30:53 2022, Danyal, Accelerator, ESR is blue again - errors are fixed 
The ESR is "blue" again. 

The errors (scu related) have been fixed. 
Entry  Wed Apr 6 08:31:54 2022, Danyal & Regina, General, ESR had some errors 
Regina noticed that the ESR was "red" 

This means that there are some errors. 
Entry  Wed Apr 6 08:06:02 2022, Danyal, DAQ, stopped NTCAP data acquisition 
I stopped the NTCAP data acquisition at 8 AM.

Let's hope that the file contains good data.

Entry  Tue Apr 5 23:07:34 2022, Carsten, Accelerator, 229Th89+ identification after re-tuning of the ESR 
The ESR was retuned this aftenoon since the it was unclear if we still sit the 229Th89+ line.
This lead to new ring settings (data with all the settings will be put in tomorrow).

Electronic for the timing of the laser puls optimized. The problem with the broad photodiode histograms is solved.
The photo of the oscilloscope picture shows in magenta the pulses from the (discriminated RF)/2, in yellow the pulses that are generated to open the Q-Switch.
The latter are generated by the coincidence of the 30-Hz trigger (2 microsec long) to 
Entry  Tue Apr 5 20:16:13 2022, Rodolfo, Laser, Discriminator for HF reference signal CFD_für_HFSignal.jpgDisc_HFSignal_05-04-2022.PNG
For the laser trigger we need to generate a few ns NIM-puls from the HF reference signal. Therefore we (Wilfried, Konstantin and me) have changed the constant
fraction descriminator (CFD) to generate this kind of pulse. 
Entry  Tue Apr 5 15:25:47 2022, Sebastian, Kristian, Pierre-Michel, DAQ, Go4 Conditions for "TDC_stacked_Sig/Ref" histogram 
First version of TDC_stacked histograms implemented.

Under folder "Conditions" you can now integrate over user defined Limits (Xmin and Xmax).
Entry  Tue Apr 5 14:51:51 2022, Kristian, DAQ, dark counts 
We shielded the PMTs, i.e., the N2 tube, which improved the Cu PMT background rate.

Occasionally, we noticed a spike in the PMT signal. No ions in the ring and at PMT Cu was not even supplied with HV. Has to be some electronic pickup
Entry  Tue Apr 5 13:24:40 2022, Kristian, Detectors, PMT Cu 
HV cable was in wrong channel in power supply. Now it is back to the correct position. Checked connection at the PMT.
