LAT Instrument Analysis Meeting – July 14, 2006
From Previous Efficiency Trending
•
•
Some layers (Bay 3 Y6, Bay 5 X14, Bay 5 Y12, Bay 6 Y3, Bay 7 Y16,
Bay 8 X11, Bay 8 X7) showed non-negligible efficiency drop.
– No apparent cause (dead, disconnected or hot strips, noise flare).
Add more runs between 77005000 and 77006000.
– Lower minimum duration limit to 500 seconds.

When efficiency drop started?
•
Efficiency drop started between run# 77005444 (5/29)
and 77005454 (6/1).
– Common cause?
– Vibe Z axis performed on 5/31.
• Michael Kuss found no issue with
TKR tower internal alignment.
– No change in TKR related register values

TKR Muon Peak Trending
• Charge scale: muon peak normalized to expected MIP peak.
– Requires 4 hours of muon data.
• Mean value of muon peak has been drifting since last TOT
calibration performed on 4/19.
• Spread of muon peak is also increasing.
• Requested new TOT calibration.
