We are currently working on the EX reconstruction which is off for detector 1, 3 and 7... One of our guess might be that there is an issue with the position of the detectors which gives error in theta... As the energy calibration is ok. Joined are :

- the Excitation energy for good detectors compared to all detectors,
- the theoretical kinematic line for the 3.57 state for each detectors,
- the excitation energy as a function of the laboratory angle (for this last spectra a clear dependency is visible for telescopes 1,3 and 7)
- the 3D view, which doesn't show clear problem in position...


Testing changing the beam impact :

-Kine for beam impact = (0,0,0) for reference
-Kine for beam impact = (0,0,-5mm)
-Kine for beam impact = (0,0,+5mm)

-Ex vs ThetaLab for beam impact = (0,0,0) for reference
-Ex vs ThetaLab for beam impact = (0,0,-5mm)
-Ex vs ThetaLab for beam impact = (0,0,+5mm)
Red lines corresponds to Ex = 3.570 MeV and Ex = 4.070 MeV

To try to correct the problem i also offseted the beam in X and Y, but this doesn't solve the problem quite the opposite as it make the result worse for other detectors also... The fact that it is better at lower angle and worse at higher angle might mean that the detectors angles are tilted compared to the
surveyors measurments... I also tried to use the CAO positions for MG3 (see Detectors/mugast.detector) but it didn't solve the problem.

In black the Kinematical line for states known to be populated strongly in 47Ti(d,p).
In blue range of the states of interrest.

The contamination is in a different region and should not cause any issue.

We made a quick check of the beam centering by inspecting the MUST2 (forward angles) hit pattern (plot attached). It appears that the beam is probably somewhat off centre in the horizontal direction.

It has been decided to run overnight like this and then see with Bertrand if the centering can be improved (will need to send hit pattern spectrum to PCP in order for Bertam to do this).

Fixed, e793s, Wed Mar 10 22:19:22 2021, Adrien, Freddy, Wilton and Nigel, OFFLINE, General, CD2, Offline analysis of run 51 and 52 using ganil files RUN5152_ELabThethaLab.png
We noted that the gamma ray efficiency calculated from file converted from AGATA was close 100%. We concluded that the conversion program was reauiring a gamma ray to be present.

This is confirm by analysis of the ganil dta file that show 10 time more count that the agata one.

Here is a kinematical plot of the run 51 and 52 analysised from ganil file.

There is a 1.5MeV state present that disappear in the agata coincidence. This is to be investigated with more data. Is it an isomer state? from 48K? 48Ti?

Fixed, e793s, Thu Mar 11 02:50:14 2021, Ablaihan, Louis, BEAM, General, CD2, VAMOS transmition  
at 2h50 beam intensity reached 1.1x10^6 pps in CATS for 6.5x10^5 pps in VAMOS. The transmition decreased to 60% without any shift of the beam position. Does it come from a loss of efficiency of VAMOS at high counting rate?

1) Some angular distribution were extracted (without any efficiency corrections) with gate on Ex btw 0 and 2 MeV (where p orbitals are populated) and btw 2 and 4 MeV (where f orbitals are populated). More counts are observed btw 110 and 120 degrees in Lab angle with the 0-2MeV gate compared to the 2-4MeV gate which is expected from the AWBA calculus. Kinematic cuts the large angles at high excitation energies. Geometrical efficiency is needed to compare this angular range. Looks like we well distinguish L=1 and L=3 transfers.

2) Some gamma spectra obtained with Ex gate btw -1 and 1, 1 and 3, 3 and 5 MeV.

3) Some strange horizontal lines are observed in the E-TOF id in MUST2. The spectra was obtained with gate on the promt signal in vamos so it can not be the beam intercepting directly must2...

4) the Ex vs Eg matrix
Fixed, e793s, Thu Mar 11 04:34:58 2021, ablaihan, louis, CATS, Hardware, CD2, CATS and VAMOS tripped Scaler_run53_4h30.png
at 4h15 CATS and VAMOS tripped probably due to too high beam intensity (~1.2x10^6 pps). We switched them on again at 4h30. All the 6 CATS in Board2 in HV by 525 V instead of 530 V.

We did not stop the run to not risk to crash the RCC. Events btw 4h15 and 4h30 will therefore have no time.

Beam stopped 4h30 due to a equipment tripped in CSS1. They are going to fix it. Estimated timing of the intervention ~10/20min.
Beam went back at 4h52 at 3.5x10^5 pps in CATS and 3.0x10^5 pps in VAMOS. transmision ~ 85%
