Stability Test Results

  • Recent “stability” analysis of PDS calibration data performed by Chris, Dante, Niccolo
  • See for example talks presented here

https://indico.fnal.gov/event/20968/

  • These stability results showed the following
  • the amount of detected light consistently went down on the beam drift side as a

function of time (over past six months or so)

  • the amount of detected light stayed stable on the non-beam side
  • In the following slides we show an explanation for the observed effects

Stability Test Info

  • Used DCM Runs:
  • Jan/Feb: 6015 (double pulses), 6620 (single pulses), 6659 (single pulses)
  • Mar/Apr: 7363, 7445, 7473 (all single pulse runs)
  • June 25: 8507
  • Pulse amplitude: UV LED bias = 30V -> “0x00040FFF” for all runs
  • Pulse width: 30 ns -> “0x9” for all runs
  • Integrate the waveform peak area for each channel

Stability Test Results

  • Make the following plot for each channel, fit the line and check the spread
  • example: ARAPUCA 1 channel 143
  • example: ARAPUCA 2 channel 275

Test of Numerical Sum of Single DCM Channel Runs

  • Sum of 4 single channel (ie single diffusers) DCM runs compared to two available

“all” diffuser runs

  • Scale blue data-ONLY down by 22.5%

(blue dots on previous slides = CENTRAL DIFFUSER only) => MAKING NEW DATA MATCHING THE OLD DATA

Matching Old data (red) vs New data (black)

⇒ Provides a strong evidence that the “CENTER” calibration channel’s light yield has been decreasing

Summary

  • Recent “stability” analysis of PDS calibration data performed by Chris, Dante, Niccolo
  • See for example talks presented here

https://indico.fnal.gov/event/20968/

  • These stability results showed the following
  • the amount of detected light consistently went down on the beam drift (aka “rack”) side

as a function of time (over past six months or so)

  • the amount of detected light stayed stable on the non-beam (aka “DAQ”) side
  • We provided a strong evidence that the “CENTER” calibration channel’s light yield has

been decreasing, to explain the PDS collection stability (as decreasing) on tack side

  • These finding are suggesting that the DCM calibration runs are valuable tool to monitor

the light yield stability but on rack side the analysis has to use individual calibration channels (aka “single diffusers”) other than the “CENTER” channel
