SYNCHRONIZATION • Problems: • All the UA9’s devices are logged in differentways: • Differentacquisitiontime. • Loggingofmachineparametercompletelyuncorrelatedfromallotheracquisitions. • Solution: • Take all the differentfiles and makelike a “tetris”: • Choose the timerange in whichall the fileshave data. • Synchronizationof the all data by Unix Timestamp.

SYNCHRONIZATION File 1 12:40:00 12:40:01 12:40:03 File 2 12:40:01 12:40:02 12:40:03 • What the synchronizationprogramdoes: • Startsfrom the higherinitialTimestamp. • Writeseveryparameter in a ROOT file everysecond. • When data are notpresent, they are replacedwith the • previousacquisition. • Stops at the lowerfinalTimestamp.

CONCLUSIONS • Withthissynchronizationprogram, wehave the complete pictureofwhathappen • during the run, secondbysecond. • The alignment procedure iscrucial and challenging: wedevelopedtwomethods • (with or withoutLHC-Collimator) toalign the deviceswith a goodprecision in every • condition. • First qualitative analysisof the dispersive area scans, showsthatwithcrystal • collimationweseemshave a more clean and definite beam, withrespectto • amorphous collimation. • For the future: • Do an online synchronizationduring data taking. • Collect more dispersive area scans, alsowith a largerrange. • Do a FLUKA simulationfor dispersive area scans.

ALIGNMENT Twodifferentprocedures due to the presence or notof the LHC-Collimator. Samepicture on Medipix Samedistancefromclosedorbit WithoutLHC-Collimator: Closebothsides (one at time) of the Roman Pot. Close the absorberofchanneledbeam. Open both Roman Potsides. Absorberstays in the same position. Approach the beamwithone mobile device. Retract the device. Repeatpoints 4 & 5 foreach mobile device. See the shadow on Medipix Cross the absorbershadow Locallossesincrease • Basicconfigurationafter the alignment: • Insertcrystal 1mm inside respect the alignment position. • Retractabsorberofchanneledbeamof 2mm respect the alignment position.
