keyword=high counting rates in small french detectors
We took 1 run (14181) for which we swapped the det 1 between octant 1 and 8.
Results can be seen on the figure (all counting rates are normalized with octant 7):
-Octant 1 : red points, the det 1 pass through the NA electronics
green points, the det 1 pass through the FR electronics, counting rates are much higher.
-Octant 8 :red points, the det1 pass through the FR electronics, large counting rates observed.
:green points,the det 1 pass through the NA electronics, counting rates are the same than the NA (value around 1).
so large counting rates in small FR detectors are due to electronics (splitter or CFD)
investigation continue...
