Cryo-target wall contamination
From Hall A Wiki
The normalized yield is equal to Ngood/Q/density. Here I neglected the density of the 3He gas.
Kinematic 5.2
Target | window thickness | Total charge | # of good evts | |
---|---|---|---|---|
upstream | downstream | |||
He3 | 0.0274 cm | 0.0328 cm | 6.92E+8 | 253254 |
Dummy | 0.1581 cm | 0.1585 cm | 2.16E+8 | 3588 |
Result: An estimate of 2186 events wall events remains within the cut ==> Contamination is less than 1%.
Kinematic 6.5
Target | window thickness | Total charge | # of good evts | |
---|---|---|---|---|
upstream | downstream | |||
He3 | 0.0274 cm | 0.0328 cm | 1.045E+9 | 110050 |
Dummy | 0.1581 cm | 0.1585 cm | 1.316E+7 | 294 |
Result: An estimate of 4439 events wall events remains within the cut ==> Contamination is 4%.
- With the full statistic collected till run 4039 (the last plot has the dummy histo multiply by 30) and the following cuts were applied to 3He and dummy runs:
- sprintf(cutnom,"L.tr.n==1 && DBB.edtpr[0]==0 && (DBB.evtypebits>>3)&1"); - sprintf(cutdum_y,"abs(L.tr.tg_y-0.0025)<0.030"); or sprintf(cuthe_y,"abs(L.tr.tg_y)<0.030"); - sprintf(cutphi,"abs(L.tr.tg_ph)<0.020"); - sprintf(cuttheta,"abs(L.tr.tg_th)<0.040"); - sprintf(cutcer,"L.cer.asum_c>300 && L.cer.asum_c<8000"); - sprintf(cutcalo,"(L.prl1.asum_c+L.prl2.asum_c)>1000"); - sprintf(cutdum_all,"%s && %s && %s && %s && %s && %s", cutnom, cutdum_y, cutphi, cuttheta, cutcer, cutcalo); or sprintf(cuthe_all,"%s && %s && %s && %s && %s && %s", cutnom, cuthe_y, cutphi, cuttheta, cutcer, cutcalo);
