22. CAST data taking notes [0/1]   Appendix extended

NOTE: This can't be properly exported to the full thesis in a PDF. The layout is all sorts of broken.

This file contains a run list of all runs taken during the data taking period starting in October 2017.

It lists each run, separated as data or calibration run and includes notes about chip settings etc. (in case there were changes).

  • [ ] HAVE A NOEXPORT SECTION EACH ABOUT:
    • CAST detector documentation
    • Shifter documentation
    • ..?

22.1. Run table

This section contains a table of the different runs, which identifies what type each run is, when it started and ended.

The type column describes the run as either

  • 'd' == data runs
  • 'c' == calibration run
  • 'x' == experimental, related to development, problems etc

NOTE: Run 305 is considered a bad run now! See ./../org/Doc/StatusAndProgress.html for more information. It is not a calibration run. Probably it's just a background run, but the confusion makes me not want to trust it!

y* = located in 2018/BadRuns folder to not mix up with 'good' data X* = X-ray finger run

X-ray finger runs are apparently number 21 (old before data taking??) and then 189 at the end of the 2017/18 data taking in Apr 2018. See ./analysis.html for reference to run 21.

22.1.4. Total run time

After Run 96:

  • Currently 23.85625 days (552.5 hours) of data taking (raw, beginning to end)

22.2. Data runs

This section covers the data runs, which took place.

The runs, unless otherwise stated, are using the FSR files as in the Septem H calibration Git repo in the folder fsrinuse. These are the THL values, which were obtained during calibration, but have THL+50 for chips 1, 2, 5 and 6. The HV values are the ones documented in the detector documentation ./Doc/Detector/CastDetectorDocumentation.html (as of <2017-11-09 Thu 19:05>).

NOTE: this run was stopped early to fix the src/waitconditions.cpp bug, mentioned in the note below. .//ssh:tpc@tpc00:/volume1/cast/data/2017_CAST-Run/DataRuns/Run_85_171109-19-01.tar.gz

NOTE: VERY IMPORTANT In all runs above, there was a bug in src/waitconditions.cpp, which cause the FADC and scintillator values to be written the all subsequent files, from an event in which the FADC triggered until the next (in case of non-subsequent FADC events). Therefore: for analysis, we need to take into account

  • fadcReadout == 1.

Otherwise we read random scintillator trigger values as well as FADC trigger clock cycles.

All runs below are without the aforementioned error.

NOTE: During Run 89 the byobu buffer containing TOS got stuck on <2017-11-12 Sun 19:35> due to <F7> being pressed (which eventually pauses the thread). Was called by Cristian at <2017-11-13 Mon 05:55> roughly. I fixed the issue. Therefore the length given in the table is misleading, as it does not show the actual time of data taking of that run.

NOTE: The following run contains the beginning (and most of it) of the GRID measurement. It only contains a single tracking, that's why the run is so long.

.//ssh:tpc@tpc00:/volume1/cast/data/2017_CAST-Run/DataRuns/Run_95_171119-02-35.tar.gz

NOTE: Regarding Run 97, morning shift on 25/11/17, from the elog: 

Remarks: At approx. 7:02 there was an error message in the Slow
Control program indicating that some file could not be saved because
there was not enough memory. After about a minute, the Slow Control PC
restarted by itself. At about the same time, an error message appeared
in the Tracking program, probably related to the fact that it could
not communicate with the Slow Control program in order to read
proximity sensor data. After the restart of the Slow control PC and
Slow control program, things went back to normal. Because of all that,
we lost first 3-4 minutes of tracking

NOTE: Still need to add links to previous runs (97, 98, 99)

NOTE: Regarding Run 101: Because of pretty bad noise during the run, I decided to play around with the main amplifier of the analogue signal. I changed the settings as followed:

  • Diff: 50 ns -> 20 ns (one to left)
  • Coarse gain: 6x -> 10x (one to right)

this got rid of (almost ?) all of the noise. However, obviously this changes the FADC data completely. The shapes are slightly altered (a little steeper)

NOTE: Regarding Run 109: CRAZY amounts of noise during that run. Interestingly, the only difference between the previous runs from what I can tell (although I wasn't present in the shift), was that the main light in the LHCb part of the hall was turned on. Maybe this causes the electricity circuit to be working under high load, producing a lot more noise? Will keep an eye on this.

NOTE: Regarding Run 111: Was stopped early, because I tried to debug the noise and in doing so burned a fuse in the gas interlock box by connecting the NIM crate to a wrong power cable. -> no shift on 6/12/17, background data being taken again since <2017-12-06 Wed 14:55>.

NOTE: Regarding Run 112: Another change of FADC settings due to crazy amounts of noise. Changed integration time from:

  • 50ns -> 100ns

gets rid of all noise for now. However, shapes are much smoother than before, might make differentiation much harder later. This was done at around <2017-12-07 Thu 08:00> Also: The power cable from the main amplifier to the pre amplifier was not properly inserted. Did that before changing the settings, seeemed to help, but noise eventually returned.

NOTE: Regarding Run 112 and previous note: Turned down integration time from 100ns to 50ns again at around <2017-12-08 Fri 17:50>.

NOTE: Regarding Run 112: Run is so long, because after problems with fuse, had quench on <2017-12-07 Thu 18:31>.

NOTE: Regarding Run 121: Jochen set the FADC main amplifier integration time from 50 to 100 ns again. Happened at around <2017-12-15 Fri 10:20>. Maybe 5 min later.

22.2.1. Notes 2018

After Run 137 (first run of 2018) I did a calibration run only to notice that we didn't recover 220 electrons anymore, but rather 110. THLscan revealed that indeed the THL values of the central chips (and potentially all others) changed.

Previously we used: Chip #: 3 THL: 450

Now a value of: THL: 400

produces no noise, if run without source on 2.4s frames, and recovers all electrons again, it seems.

  • Calibration Run 138 uses THL 450
  • Calibration Run 139 uses THL 400

Change is reflected in CAST calibration Git repository, in fsrasused folder!

22.2.1.1. Power Problem

Problem due to power supply, causing what looked like changes to the thresholds of all chips.

See the following mail for a short explanation: ./Mails/cast_power_supply_problem_thlshift/power_supply_problem.html

22.2.1.2. Run 297 and 298

There was some pretty crazy noise in run 297 (see Sergios video on WhatsApp), so I disabled the FADC on <2018-12-13 Thu 18:40> for Run 298, since I'm heading down to CERN on <2018-12-14 Fri>.

22.4. Automatically generated run list

The following run list is created by the writeRunList tool: ./../CastData/ExternCode/TimepixAnalysis/Tools/writeRunList/writeRunList.nim based on the tracking logs.

22.5. Automatically calculated total run times

Run period 2 (= 2017/18): 

Type: rtBackground
         trackingDuration: 4 days, 10 hours, and 20 seconds
         nonTrackingDuration: 14 weeks, 2 days, 1 hour, 23 minutes, and 18 seconds
Type: rtCalibration
         trackingDuration: 0 nanoseconds
         nonTrackingDuration: 4 days, 11 hours, 25 minutes, and 20 seconds

Which amounts to: Calibration data: 107.42 h Background data: 2401.40 h Tracking data: 106 h

Run period 3 (= Oct-Dec 2018): 

Type: rtBackground
         trackingDuration: 3 days, 2 hours, 17 minutes, and 53 seconds
         nonTrackingDuration: 6 weeks, 4 days, 20 hours, 54 minutes, and 29 seconds
Type: rtCalibration
         trackingDuration: 0 nanoseconds
         nonTrackingDuration: 3 days, 15 hours, 3 minutes, and 45 seconds

Which amounts to: Calibration data: 87.05 h Background data: 1124.9 h Tracking data: 74.29 h

So in total: Calibration data: 194.47 h Background data: 3526.3 h Tracking data: 180.29 h

22.6. InGrid temperature from shift forms

Due to the bug in TOS that caused the temperature log files to be placed in ./TOS/log/ instead of the respective run folders, the files were overwritten periodically it seems.

The only temperature information we still have from it thus is the shift forms.

There are also pictures of every shift form in my googlo photos.
