Run 10 EEMC Timing Curves

Runs Taken

All of the runs below were taken with ~50k events.  Elog entry here.  Cut & paste from elog below.

General

Run 10364013 - I have taken timing data for the four EMC subsystems
(BTOW/BSMD ETOW/ESMD)

The beam conditions were ZDC ~1.5 KHz. The BSMD had
about 25% dead time at 700 Hz data rate. All runs
were 50K events.

Phase Delays:

10 10/10 100 5 10364014

For the record the FEE configuration files for the ESMD and ETOW during the timing scans were:
/home/online/mapmtConfig/12-26-09_scan
/home/mini/tcl/03.01.09_timescan_v1

After scan the FEEs were reconfigure to the initial run 10 files:
11-27-09_run_10
11.27.2009

Run 9 Results

Results

I have used the old "sum method" for the timing for each individual channel, as well as for the crates.  I also attempted to use Scott's method for slopes for the crates only (stats not good enough for individual channels).  As a reminder, for the sum method, what is posted is counts in some ADC range/total events in the run.

 

Plots below are of Mapmt crates with sum method on left/top and slope method on right/bottom.  When you see a point on the slope plot drop to below 0, it's because it was poorly fit.  Try to ignore it.

 

 

 

 

 

For the tower crates the slope method is doing a terrible job.  Only the sum plot is posted below.
