During Run 368, we note at 21h30 that now CATS2 has continuously a 0.1 ľA current. Maybe there are some microtrips on some central part of the detector.
The counter also shows strong fluctuations of CATS2 counting rate between 80 and 40kcps down to 0 then up again.
Concerning the raw charges on CATS, the situation is similar since the beginning of the runs in the afternoon, 7th July.

After strong instabilities the beam intensity is better and we have recovered nearly 93kcps on CATS2 as during the beginning
of run 368 at 16h30. Cf scalers below at 22h35, and the picture of the primary beam intensity.

Sili 1/T5 has tripped (again) around 23h45.

4h25 if there is any need to enter the room, the PCP would like to re-tune the beam because it is shifting all the time
As it is not yet mandatory, we choose to keep it like that

Caviar has tripped during the night (before 4a.m.)
We have put the bias again but we could not reach the nominal value of 1040V. We have set the bias at 950V.
If we increase the bias, then the current rises strongly and reaches the 2uA limit.

Caviar is back with the same efficiency as CATS, but the detector may be damaged.


6h04 SiLi T5 has tripped, switch on again
7h25 SiLi T5 tripped; switched on I=19,8uA

At ~21:00 we called PCP: They adjusted the DC41VE steerer to center vertically the beam on our target.
See attached plot.

This has no impact on the counting rates in our detectors.

Counting rates keep decreasing though the primary is still ~4.5 uAe and the beam is centered on our target.
We called François de Oliveira who helped us to print the parameters of the line. We go to the PCP with the print.
