|
In MUST2 dE-E plot, strong locus for triton E ~ 40 MeV exists.
Kinematics for triton bellow 45 MeV matches the kinematics of triton 40MeV beam proton elastic scattering.
If coincidence of proton required, still exists for some region (proton forward scattering with enough energy to pass through DSSD).
Kinematics for proton matches the kinematics of recoil proton by 40MeV triton beam.
Sum of the proton and triton energy has a peak around 40 MeV.
Locus still exists with TOF gate by CATS1-HF.
Triton energy for (p,t) reaction will be higher than ~ 50 MeV, so can't be a background.
The total number of triton bellow 45 MeV and above DSSD range in run0312 (80 minutes) is ~ 20000 (~ 4 cps for all the telescope). |

Run 326 start: 6h59
Beam: 9C
All Triggers: T1 to T8, CATS1% CATS2% PLASTIC%
Divisions: CATS1, CATS2 3. 10**4 ; Plastic% 10**4
Dead time between 8 and 15%
CATS2 X19 strip not running since Run 322
Total beam I 1.3 to 1.5 10**5 pps in CATS1, CATS2.
CATS2 700V 0.14 ľA.
I ~ 1.8uA to 2.0 ľA primary beam
We asked PCP to reduce to 1.7 ľA in order to avoid CATS1 tripping.
But CATS1 is continuously tripping even when we decrease the HV from 670 V to 660V then to 650V.
2 minutes ok see scalers at 7h18.
At 7h20 we try CATS1 HV 640V. Tripping.
At 8h02 we try again to put ON HV on CATS1. 640V ok, with I ~ 0.04 ľA (low value) for beam around 10**5 on CATS2.
It is running... (see un326_BeamTracksAt8h09.png )
With low efficiency, but at least we can check the beam trajectories. See Run326_BeamTracksAt8h09.png
Trip at 8h13. |

Analyzed run 312 (9C physics run). CATS calibration files with lowered threshold values
(/home/e748/analysis/nptool/Projects/e755/Calibration/cats/CATS1_X.e738.npt, etc.) were used.
Using the total E information from the plastic, tracking efficiencies for each beam species were estimated.
Two different position reconstruction methods (ASECH and CENTROIDE) were also compared.

The peak near 16 MeV was observed in a measurement in the 1960s. The resonance is close to the 3He-d threshold. The narrow width indicates a binary cluster of 3He and d formed in 5Li.
May be interesting to see if the same phenomenon is observed for 6Be. |

9C + liquid H. Probably nobody cares this post right now, but the beam is back.
21h00 the beam back to LISE.
21h03 start. Tune the wien filter 3.0 to 0.0 kV to optimize the transmission from CATS to PLASTIC (with visual scaler). TOF spectrum is the same as before.
21h32 1.7 electric micro A.
22h20 Wien filter 0 to 1.0 kV. Scaler Plastic/CATS2 ratio is the highest (93%) with this setting.
