[Sbs_gems] [EXTERNAL] Fwd: Fwd: GEM HV scan with new resistors

Sat Nov 20 16:23:12 EST 2021

Hi Kondo,

Sorry I just sent some preliminarily stuff out on slack before fixing it
up. Here are the proper hit map plots for that cosmic run. We see that UV
layer 0 has lost a new sector in my plot "cosmic_data". This data was taken
on Nov 18th. However I do not see any increase in the current readback of
the detector. Therefore I am hopeful that this is a sector that is
temporarily dead, like we have seen before, and it may come back in a few
days. I checked the production data from Nov 17th, the day before
("Production_data") but there are not enough events to see if the sector is
there. I will replay more of that production run to fill out the plots and
see when the sector went away. We cannot tell from any of the 50k replays.

Best,
Sean
