    keyword=Compton rates

    I did a few tests with the compton :
    -LED at 1600 V , no rate
    -LED with LED trigger at 100 Hz I get the triggers so DAQ is fine

    The fact I saw rate when beams come off made me think that the background might be so high that the gain drops or the signal is a DC level and discrimator does not fire anymore. I managed to get back some rates lowering the HV. I will try to figure the gain with the LED, though maybe we could ask to MCC to tune on the different setting at least to make a relative improvement.
