Pedestals of MG3_X have changed yesterday, they are back to about 8200 as they should be --> saved in ped_muvi2sec2_22072019_new
We are using wrong pedestals (of about 9600) --> the pedestals are saved under mugast account as ped_muvi2_sec2_22072019_sameas_1807219

We kept the same pedestals but we reduced the pedestal suppression to 0 - 6800 in order not to suppress the data of one other 2 mates.
The attached spectrum shows that all the X of MG3 are recovered (although the impact matrix still does not work)

Fixede768s Mon Jul 22 16:54:33 2019 Marlène, Franck, François & NicolasBEAMGeneral Cheking beam transmission from G1 profiler to VAMOS
Goal:
Estimate beam transmission from profiler to VAMOS (FP)

Method:
1. Beam intensity is reduced with the pepper pot 1/9 and by closing slits after the 15O target production and the accelerators so that the beam quality (emittance, etc...) is not affected.
2. VAMOS plate is removed to allow the direct beam detection
3. LiF (1.25 mg/cm2, number 1) is in position

Results:
1. beam intensity at G1 profiler ~ 4e4 pps
2. VAMOS FP ~ 2e4 pps

Discussion:
1. There is a factor of two loss between the profiler and VAMOS. Taken this factor into account in the g-ray yield estimate (see post ..) the numbers of 1297- and 1340-keV g-rays is in line with what is expected from cross-section calculation.
2. Loosing a factor of two means a substantial amount of 15O is implanted in the pipe/target frame/MUST2 masks. A dedicated AGATA activation measurement could be performed to cross-check this factor of two.
Fixede768s Mon Jul 22 17:07:39 2019 Marlène, Franck, François & NicolasBEAMGeneral Profiler conditions for measuring beam intensity
We checked that the measured beam intensity (present case 1.5e7 pps) is independent on the voltage on the profiler. Values from 93 V up to 177 V gave similar results.

1) Beam velocity from VAMOS for AGATA doppler correction. Beta is understandable for the three main charge states seen (with Q9 and Q10 as the transfer states, and centroid shifted higher for Q10 state, possibly because of reduced acceptance for the very high-lying states.

2) Entire doppler corrected gamma-ray spectrum. Blue is transfer (Q9), red is fusion evaporation (Q8). 1880 keV line only seen in fusion evaporation as expected, 13/2+ state.

3) Zoom at the region around 2.5 MeV. Note that
