    keyword=BB Cerenkov rates with front added front shielding

    Bottom line: Rates dropped by %20 after the shielding was added to the front (vs. the previous open-front configuration).
    Started 2:35pm, Friday, run 3790
    Beam current: 11.8 uA
    103.    kHz T1 rate
      1.4   kHz T3 rate
      0.051 kHz T5 rate
     22.5   kHz T6 rate
    
    T7 rates w/ all HVs off (ie. EDTM pulser only, same as T2 rate)
            Thresh          Rate (Hz)
            -100            12.48

    ### This is with the 1" of Pb on all sides but that facing the target.
    ### Target side has 2+" of Pb.
    ### 1" thick Al plates are on top and bottom.
    T7 rates w/ HV on 19 on (witness PMT @ 2100V); 11.8 uA beam
            Thresh          Rate (kHz)
            -100             83.0  (~1.5 kHz during trip)
            -300             19.0  (~200  Hz during trip)
            -500              6.2  ( ~40  Hz during trip - 12 Hz EDTM))
            -700              4.2  ( ~30  Hz during trip - 12 Hz EDTM))
            -900              3.0  (  ~4  Hz during trip)
