  • Scale Factor:
    • [Date 19] 12B5+ [86.8 MeV] from 11B5+ [89 MeV] scale factor = 0.9316/0.90318 = 0.0314
  • Expected calculated rates for tuning (acceptable - ideal):
    • At EXIT Detector: >12000-14000 pps/pnA (midplane slits set to ~+-4 mm, ~3% momentum acceptance).
    • At HELIOS Cross Detector: >5000-6000 pps/pnA (assumes ~40% transmission, maybe on the high side...)
    • At HELIOS Target Detector: >4000-5000 pps/pnA (assumes excellent [80%] transmission through the HELIOS array, maybe on the high side...)
