The SRC Tritium Experiment (E12-14-011) is an (e,e'p) experiment in Hall A, comparing the momentum distribution of protons in tritium and helium-3. These nuclei have a large proton-neutron asymmetry, but are also isospin-mirror nuclei, meaning that the proton distribution in tritium can tell us about the neutron distribution in helium-3.

Important codes

During the experiment

The information that was more relevant for activities during the data-taking period will be moved from this page to the following new page:

Beam Energy Calibration

Done by D. Higinbotham (This is a 'pass-dependent' statement)

For second pass beam, use the Tiefenbach energy multiplied by 1.0025(5)

(That is, replace the value Ebeam in db_run.dat by 1.0025xEbeam)

After this correction, the measured Ebeam (before Eloss corrections) is ~ 4.3255 GeV

check this too

Other information

  • BCM calibration
    • run number: 100172
    • target: carbon foil
    • currents and attenuator values:
      • 3uA ---> 140
      • 7uA ---> 163
      • 12uA ---> 184
      • 18uA ---> 204
      • 22.2uA ---> 214
    • These are nominal values for the beam current. Gotta get the actual values from epics info.
    • See example in the halog, entry number: 3505501
  • Unser calibration
    • run number: 100451
    • target: dummy
    • current values: 0,2,0,3,0,5,0,10,0,25,0,40,0,60,0,80,0,90,0,100,0,2,0,3,0,5,0,10,0 uA
    • Ideally we would have completed two full cycles from 0 to 100 uA, but the beam came back and we decided to go back to production.
    • See example in the halog, entry number: 3499263
