Roger & Allena asked whether there was correlation between high rate in the Compton scintillator rate and the signal in background detector MD9. A little tricky since one is an EPICS variable and the other is in our DAQ. The answer last week was "maybe": both of the first two plots, running approximately from 12/5 to 12/12, show reduced background beginning late on Thursday 12/8 (see that day's shift summary). MD9 yield has been constant around 12.2 mV/uA since Dec. 12, at least as presented in the database GUI.
