To be learned from the radiation measurements • Radmons - too insensitive (for doses at UA) • TLDs – clear effect of non-shielded ducts (in front of Gen. G/H & N/O) • Visible effect of shielded duct in front of Gen.C – no increased dose • To evaluate TLDs correctly we need to deduce background (x-ray etc.) but we don't have reference measurement. Background estimated to 0.8 mSv. HEH = dose x 2.5e6 so max HEH fluences ~ 6e5 HEH/cm2 (if neglected 2009-2011) • Average fluence probably close to estimated one (1e5 HEH/cm2.year) • Shielding of residual large openings requested
Resonance between GTO stacks without and with damping ferrite tores • Artificially induced resonant ringing between 2 stacks (1 nf in parallel with 1 GTO) – simulating effect of sparking; signal measured on retring pick-ups Cts2 a&b • Resonance at ~ 2 MHz with low damping factor generally observed • Adding of a lossy ferrite in HV path of each GTO stack (tore cutted in two – no need for dissasembly) – reducing resonant frequency to ~ 1 MHz; significant damping and saturation effect (increasing T_threshold and reducing T_rise)
Energy scan without and with FT Increased T_thr without much influence to T_delay = reduced T_rise (~-30 ns)
