Summary Plot of NPS Moller Measurements
Moller measurement summaries
Note that this is the first experiment to use the new cryogen-free superconducting target magnet.

- IHWP IN: P = -80.06 +/- 0.54 %
- IHWP OUT: P = 80.55 +/- 0.58 %
- Tune up at 5 pass. Had a hard time seeing scintillators - thought they were gain matched ok (but maybe they weren't), so thought there might be problems with DAQ.
- Q1 = 126.86 A
- Q2/Q3 = -1318.0 A
- Final collimator settings: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4185462, NOTE: these are wrong - chose wrong collimator 3 setting!
- 1/2 = -0.60/-0.60
- 3/4 = -1.80/-2.40
- 5=0.0
- 6/7=-2.90/-2.80
- Summary log entry: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4185474
- Runs on 9/22/2023 (QE=0.3215%)

- IHWP IN: P = -81.03 +/- 0.54 %
- IHWP OUT: P = 81.21 +/- 0.57 %
- Attempted to improve gain matching scintillators. Performed short Q2/Q3 scan (rates). Accidentally used wrong collimator positions:
- 1/2=-1.7 cm
- 3/4=-2.5 cm
- 7/8=-2.4 cm

- IHWP IN: P = -80.34 +/- 0.52 %
- IHWP OUT: P = 80.92 +/- 0.53 %
- Had HV troubles at beginning - had to load in backup from A1n. Found the scintillators had been set at very voltages. Finally saw good tune plot.
- Did another collimator scan
