Cosmic Rays and Noise Counts from Internal Counters. M3R4-173

Cosmic Rays and Noise Counts from Internal Counters. M3R4-173

Table presents counting rates (counts per 100 sec) averaged over 24 pads in bi-gap AB or in bi-gap CD measured with Thr=16fC in all channels applying HV=2550V at one of the gaps (A,B,C,D) while the other gaps are at HV=0. Also presented are the noise rates (counts per 1 sec) averaged over 48 pads (in bi-gap AB and in bi-gap CD) measured at HV=0 in all gaps with Thr=8.5fC and with Thr=10fC in all channels. The thresholds were set individually for each channel according to the relation:
Thr(reg.units)= Thr(fC)*S(reg.un/fC)-OFFSet(reg.un)+Thr_Max(reg.un). Here,
Thr_Max is the threshold at Maximum of noise rate;
OFFSet=17 reg.units (corresponding to 40mV);
S=3.40 reg.units/fC is the charge sensitivity (corresponding to Sens=7.5mv/fC accepted for M3R4 chambers);

Thresholds Scan. M3R4-173

Thresholds Scan. M3R4-173

Tables below present:
- Thr_Max(r.u.), Thresholds in register units at Maximum of noise rate;
- N_Max, Noise rate at Thr_Max in counts/sec;
- D_100 = Thr_100(r.u.) - Thr_Max(r.u.) where Thr_100(r.u.) is the threshold in register units at noise rate = 100/s.
The following expression relates the real threshold (measured from the base-line of physical signals) with the thresholds determined by the register units:
Thr(fC)*S(r.u./fC) = Thr(r.u.) - Thr_Max(r.u.)+ OFFSet(r.u.).
Here, OFFSet=17 register units;
S=3.40 r.u./fC is the charge sensitivity corresponding to S=8mV/fC taken for M3R4 chambers;
(Note, that 1 register unit = 2.35 mV)
