50/50 gas, 2100V (left column(s)) 2090 (right column(s))

        • Caveat: LHS data were with preamp underpowered, 2.65V on preamp card; RHS data were with 3.0V @ preamp card****

Run numbers are 31757 (horiz) and 31765 (tilt 45deg) at 2.65V, 2.1kV; 31809 (horiz) and 31810 (45 deg) at 3.0V, 2.09kV

Pedestal stability

Pedestal height
No tilt, LV 2.7V, HV 2100V
45 degrees, LV 2.7V, HV 2100V
No tilt, LV 3.0V, HV 2090V
45 degrees, LV 3.0V, HV 2090V
Pedestal width (std dev of first 100 samples in each event)
No tilt, LV 2.7V, HV 2100V
45 degrees, LV 2.7V, HV 2100V
No tilt, LV 3.0V, HV 2090V
45 degrees, LV 3.0V, HV 2090V


Try to calculate dE/dx

integration from low threshold crossing for next 700ns / track length
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees

The ratio of tilted to horizontal integration means is 1.24 whereas the ratio of track length is ~ 1.4.


Track length is calculated in the plane parallel to the endplates (no z information) so I scaled it by the tilt of the prototype for the 45 degree data, the upper cosmic trigger scintillator is high up enough that the cosmics are ~ vertical

height of first maximum in signal amplitude / track length
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees


signal integrated from low threshold crossing to position of first maximum in signal amplitude / track length
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees


Look at time over threshold...

Peak duration is # samples after the lower threshold crossing until the ADC value decreases by 2sigma over 2 samples, this is a measure of time over threshold in units of 8ns


Peak duration
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees


Peak duration / track length
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees
Peak duration vs track length
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees


Peak length vs first maximum in signal amplitude
No tilt
Tilted at 45 degrees
