Fixed, e768s, Sat Jul 20 19:21:56 2019, Marlene, Nicolas, Christian, Fairouz, OFFLINE, General, , Trying to understand AGATA g-ray yields 
goal: we want to check whether the yields of the 1297.7 keV (from 19Ne 1536, 3/2+, l=1 state) and 1340 keV (from 19Ne 1615, 3/2-, l=2 state) g-ray lines is compatible with what we expect from x-sec calculations

conditions: we consider runs 112, 115 and 116

observations:
N(1297) = 17 g-rays
N(1340) = 23 g-rays

remarks:
Given x-sec from mirror nucleus (Francois 15N(7Limt) paper) we expect N(1340) >~ N(1297)

ingredients:
1. beam normalization
We use the TAC_FPMW_HF as a proxy. During the same time we integrate the prompt peak and compare the integrated OR VAMOS scaler, we find Scaler(OR VAMOS)/N(TAC) = 193.
We use the comparison of the OR VAMOS (pps) and the beam profiler (pps), we find profiler/OR VAMOS = 1e4
We obtain (2.17e5 + 6.44e4 + 3.52e5)*193*1e4 = 1.2 e12 15O incident particles (at profiler position!)

2. target thickness -> known to be 1.25 mg/cm2 of LiF (RBS measurement)
N(Li) = 1.25e-3 / (19+7) * 6.02e23 at/cm2

3.efficiencies
AGATA @ 1.3 MeV -> 7.5 %
VAMOS intrinsic -> 67 % (Eff_Check.C macro applied to run 116)
MUGAST -> 50 % (lab, geometry), needed because MUGAST is the main trigger

4. 19Ne charge state
we assume 40 % for 9+

5. g-ray branching ratio -> taken from NNDC

6. cross-section
we calculate differential cross section for the 1536-keV 19Ne state (FRESCO, FR-DWBA)
-> at 0 deg, ds/dW =
-> integrated x-sec in VAMOS acceptance (4 deg (lab) -> 20 deg (cm)) = 445 micro barn (C2Sa = 1)
-> taking into account know spectroscopic factor form analog state -> 89 micro barn

Conclusion:
for the 1536-keV 19Ne state we obtain 30 g-rays, instead of 17.

Discussion:
This factor of two could be well within the mirror symmetry assumption. However it seems it is also the case for the 1615-keV 19Ne state, so would not it be a systematic error with a factor of two missing somewhere (beam transmission between the profiler and the target? deficiencies?)?

RUN 27 on 14th of feb.
3 alpha source (one in front of trap., one in front of square detectors)

MG10, MG4, MG7 and MG5 are OK.
MG1 shows alpha but at lower energy and with bad resolution (particularly on X). We suspect it is not well depleted. We tried to increase the bias up to 200V but did not see any change.
It is due to a non working SA/SL external cable that produces this error (we tested it with several detectors, we also tried to change the MUVI channel and it still does the same)

Conclusion :
We have tested all trapezoid detectors (MG1, MG3, MG4, MG5, MG7) the annular (MG11) and the thin square (MG10) they are all OK

Problem with the annular MG11 -> no current when bias is put... --> to be checked

Problem with the insertion of the target holder --> solved

I also checked again MG9 (still noisy)
and MG10 with 140V I=0,52uA and counting rate is the same order of magnitude as trapezoid. Spectra are OK (not saved).
