Fixed, e793s, Fri Mar 5 17:01:27 2021, mugast, S1, Hardware, N/A, Giving up on S1 
We mounted the new S1 detector from Surrey with a new custom cable on several MUFEE cards using the CsI ASICs.
We managed to put voltage on it and get decent leakage current.
We modified the DAS parameters from CsI values to Si values (gain, shaping time, etc).

However as soon as we enable a S1 channel, we get a very large increase of trigger rate (ORD of several 10000) creating huge dead time. Nothing apart pedestal is visible on the energy spectra.
After investigation with Charles and Fred we believe that there is a noise (detector/cable, maybe at high frequency) that goes on the decision chain in the asic (with fast shaper) but that this noise is filtered on the energy coding chain (by the slow shaper) and thus invisible after the ASIC (even with the scope on the analog using the inspection lines).

We give up on S1 and proceed only with 6 working trapezoids and 5 MUST2.

Here is a todo list for today:

Data conversion:
  • Raw run files are located in /data/mugastX/mugast/acquisition/run/
  • Converting FSC run: 622 to 629 : run_0630.dat.06-03-21_13h15m06s
  • Converting alpha run: 630. warning: there is 3 files for this run :run_0630.dat.06-03-21_13h15m06s and run_0630.dat.06-03-21_13h15m06s.1 and run_0630.dat.06-03-21_13h15m06s.2

Extract histogram for calibration: each macro need to be run twice, once for MUGAST and once for MUST2 if I remember correctly.
  • Extract histograms for FSC run with the macro located : /home/mugast/analysis/nptool/Projects/calibration/Time/ExtractRawHisto_T.C
  • Extract histograms for alpha run with the macro located : /home/mugast/analysis/nptool/Projects/calibration/Energy/ExtractRawHisto_E.C

Analysed the extracted histograms to calibrate: change the appropriate field in the macro before running
  • FSC: /home/mugast/analysis/nptool/Projects/calibration/Time/TimeCalibrator.C
  • alpha: /home/mugast/analysis/nptool/Projects/calibration/Energy/EnergyCalibrator.C

Prepare the calibration file to be used for the online/offline analysis:
  • List all the file you just generated in /home/mugast/analysis/nptool/Projects/MUGAST/Calibration.txt
  • Do some cleanup in the file so it is more readable.
  • Check for missing/noisy strips and adjust config file in /home/mugast/analysis/nptool/Projects/MUGAST/configs

Analysed the calibration run with the new calibration:
  • check T:strip and E:strip
  • Post a summary of the resolution for each detector

Time calibrator on all tac
  • Check the range of each tac
  • wired the start/stop to the TAC inputs
  • do an acquisition with enough statitics
  • analyse it and put the calibration file in Calibration.txt
