Silviu's Analysis Work
Beam Studies 1 - Oct 31, 2002

  • beamontarget.ps it shows the temperature sensor that the PID feedback of the HPH is currently regulating on in red, and the power of the HPH One can see that beam on/off was producing temperature excursion of 250mK peak-to-peak, and that the HPH was about 425 W without beam and round 130 W with beam.
  • beamonLH2.ps shows the whole interval of "full" beam on target period, from the HPH point of view.
  • beamcurrent.ps shows the beam current for the time span displayed in beamontarget.ps, the time discrepancy on the horizontal scale si due to the fact that the beam current is archived on the jlab's general database for epics variables, while our target parameters are archived on the target computer, and our archiver has a 1h mismatch with respect to the general jlab archiver.
  • targetscan_30Oct02.ps which shows the results from the target scan in beam,

Target Boiloff incident Nov. 4

  • tgtboiloff_4Nov02.ps displays the pressure and the temperature in the target during the boiloff
  • pump_boiloff_4Nov02.ps displays the pump frequency and the pump head during the same period of time
  • He-H_boiloff_4Nov02.ps displays the differential pressure between H2 and He across the exit window of the He cell during the same period of time
  • boiloff_4Nov02.ps displays the pressure and temperature in the target over the whole time span of about two hours between losing the coolant and the target ready for beam with a full LH2 target. The break in the signal comes from power cycling the IOC (which cleared the faulty behavior of the JT valve software control)

  • elastic_asym.ps Asymmetry over the proton elastic peak. IHWP behaviour separated and combined.
  • inelastic_asym.ps Asymmetry over the proton inelastic peak. IHWP behaviour separated and combined.
  • elastic_corr.ps Elastic asymmetry corrected for background. The correction procedure takes into account the side bands to the elastic peak and makes a linear fit to yield and asymmetry across the elastic peak (see background studies below) timebin by timebin.
  • dilution.ps Dilution factors for the integral of inelastic stuff under the elastic peak.
  • error_elastic.txt Corrected elastic asymmetry error breakdown into contributions from inelastic dilution factor, statistics and inelastic asymmetry.

  • elastic_asym.ps The asymmetry computed over the elastic proton peak in the FR detectors with three methods, counting statistics asymmetry, asymmetry Adet = Sum(Ai*Yi)/Sum(Yi), where Yi = (number_of_quartets)x(normalized_yield)x(charge/MPS), i is the run index and error sigmaAdet = Sqrt{1/Sum[Yi]}, Silviu asymmetry ASdet = Sum[Ai/(sigmaAi)2]/Sum[1/(sigmaAi)2], and error sigmaAdet = Sqrt{Sum[1/(sigmai)2}, and Julie asymmetry, as taken from the db-defined elastic proton peak and summed up as independent measurements over octants in a run and over runs.
  • nullelasticasym.ps The null elastic asymmetry test over the elastic proton peak with the three methods.
  • asymmmetries.txt Summary table with side by side asymmetries and their errors as computed with the two methods. These reflect the sums over the 61 IN and 52 OUT runs with production quality data.
  • bins_cstat.txt Summary of individual quarter ns bins' counting statistics over detectors, in each octant, and over good runs for the elastic proton peak. One can see the differences in systematics in these bins, counting statistics fractions vary by more than 0.1 in the same run for the same proton peak (same detector, same octant - 13Mb file!), which is a significant figure, considering that counting statistics fraction errors are usually less than 0.005 over a run.
