Pendinge793s Wed Mar 10 20:36:19 2021 NigelBEAMGeneralCD2Beam centering - MUST2 hit pattern

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).

Ongoinge793s Wed Mar 10 21:09:25 2021 mugast (Adrien, Nigel et co)BEAMGeneral Primary beam issues

The secondary beam intensity has been fluctuating around 4 - 5 x 10**5 Hz most of the evening. 15 mins ago it was realised that it had dropped off to only 1 x 10**5 Hz. As suspected, PCP confirmed that primary beam intensity has dropped off. They are investigating ...

It would be good to have the TI (primary beam intensity) available to monitor here in the daq room.
Fixede793s Wed Mar 10 22:19:22 2021 Adrien, Freddy, Wilton and NigelOFFLINEGeneralCD2Offline analysis of run 51 and 52 using ganil files
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?

Around 11:30 pm FAg value increased from usual 60-70 units to 140 units. It is suspected that MUGAST increased the trigger rate.

Fixede793s Thu Mar 11 02:50:14 2021 Ablaihan, LouisBEAMGeneralCD2VAMOS 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?
Fixede793s Thu Mar 11 03:37:45 2021 LouisOFFLINEGeneralCD2Offline analyis run 53
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

Fixede793s Thu Mar 11 04:34:58 2021 ablaihan, louisCATSHardwareCD2CATS and VAMOS tripped
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%
