Entry  Wed Jun 30 14:48:54 2021, Oliver, General, Data taking - and not... 
We just started data taking. But a few minutes later the main experiment needed to do some adjustements to the beam. This interrupts us for a couple of minutes...

Entry  Fri May 7 01:49:03 2021, Rui-Jiu Chen, DAQ, Comparison of I_Raw/Q_Raw between different reference level  20210501_NTCAPPreparation.png
This is a comparison of I_Raw/Q_Raw between different reference level. The range of NTCAP ADC is only 2^15 bit. So signals (I_Raw and Q_Raw) should 
not be outside ADC range. It is clear that there is not point outside the ADC range when using reference level -30dBm.
Entry  Sun May 9 20:34:47 2021, Rui-Jiu Chen, Analysis, Comparison of frequency spectrum between 72Ge and other isotope 6x
This some preliminary analysis results by using  NTCAP data.   The IQ rate of NTCAP is 20 MSamples/seconds. I analyzed data files recorded from May 7 
17:39 to May 8 2:20.  The frequency of 72Ge is bended by 4kHz at the beginning of some injections.  In order to check whether this frequency bending is 
due to isomer or unstable magnetic field. I compare the 72Ge with other isotopes. The similar bending was observed for other isotope in each 
corresponding injections. It seems that bend is due to unstable magnetic field.

Following Xiangcheng Chen's analysis, I analysed 11 ms time slices separated by 25 ms to see the evolution of the potential isomer across the injection.

Attachment 1: Data from May 7th 19h-20h. -t 11ms progression from -s=5 to -s=5.175
Attachment 2: Data from May 8th 21h-22h. -t 11ms progression from -s=5 to -s=5.175

The extra resolution gained on the 8th (and potentially other settings too) make the isomer visible where it wasn't present on the 7th.

Same as before for 5-6 am.
Peak still there, maybe a bit less than before.

Same as before, but for 410 MHz detectors.
Peaks visible in the 3rd-5th slice.

Hi, attached is the sum of all spectra from 1-2am on May 10th, on the 245 MHz detector. Takes me forever to download everything...
I used the same parameters as Guy and Xiancheng: LFRAMES = 512 (in analyzer); -t 0.011 (= 11 ms) -s 5 ... 5.175 s.

Resolution looks good... :-)
Entry  Sat Jul 3 06:48:38 2021, The remote Canadian eager beavers (Guy & Iris), Analysis, Closer potential isomer tracks 70Se_close_pot_isomers.png
After looking through >800 shots from Jul 2nd 21h to Jul 3rd 05h, we couldn't find a single example of a "smoking gun" isomer decay. I.e. I'm talking about the examples Liliana posted earlier. We did find many examples (roughly 10%) where the ion track spontaneously 
disappeared, but this shouldn't be the isomer as there was no frequency shift.

We did, as Iris mentioned, observe some line "in-between" the broad peak unique to the 410MHz, and listed them here (https://triumfoffice365-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/dillmann_triumf_ca/EdKsMfSC3AlHopA36PdLBlsBE2MCSY0hh5qIsuau5HFBmg?rtime=Z2os4J492Ug).
I then proceeded to sum these files to see if they lined up. The result it attached, with the previous total sum from 21-00h Jul 2nd at the bottom for comparison. It seems the 70Se line has shifted, this is observed in the other shots too. However, despite the low 
statistics, these other shots don't line up with the broad peak identified before, although they don't line up well with each other individually either.
In either case, we think these files might be worth offline analysis as they're the only possible hint of the 70Se isomer so far.

Here's a list of the spectra to look at for the potential isomer, taken btw 21:00 on July 2nd and 6:30 on July 3rd. Two examples attached.
