Entry  Wed May 12 10:15:47 2021, Volker Hannen, DAQ, Unplugged TDC inputs for MCP front and back 
To reduce the load on the VUPROM TDC, we unplugged the TDC inputs for the front and back signals of the MCP of the XUV detector.
The Anode signal is still plugged in and should be sufficient for the analysis.
Entry  Fri May 14 04:50:46 2021, Team #Night, General, Scraper Tests Ion / Laser Beam 
laser is 4-6mm below the ion beam.
It could be that the interaction between both beams came only from the interaction between the laser halo with the ion beam ?!

Entry  Fri May 14 01:34:44 2021, Team, General, strange XUV Anode signal Screenshot_(68).png
We see a strange behavior of the anode signal when we bunch the ion beam and electron cooler is on.
