====== BLM ====== Beam loss monitoring system (BLM) is used to monitor the beam losses. If beam interacts with the inner side of a beam tube, the lost particles hit the walls and create secondary particle showers, which can be observed and measured outside of the beam tube * plastic scintillators are very fast and suitable for all types of losses * the usage is recommended for loss rates up to few 10^7 counts per second * each detector has the same response function {{::blm1.png?direct&200|}} {{:blm2.png?direct&200|}} * based on plastic scintillator * 16 (18) locations along the HADES beamline * stand alone solution for LASSIE Data Acquisition System (HHT Dach) * fully FAIR compatible System {{::blm3.png?direct&200|}} ===== BLM Locations ===== {{::blm_locations.png?direct&800|}} |1 |GS06DL5I |in front of magnetic Septum | |2 |GS06DL5A |behind magnetic Septum | |3 |GTE1DL1 |behind TE1QD12 | |4 |GTS1DL1 |behind TS1MU1 | |5 |GTE2DL1 |behind TE2QT13 | |6 |GTE3DL1 |behind TE3MU1 | |7 |GTH1DL1 |behind TH1QD12 | |8 |GHHTDL1 |behind HHTMU1 | |9 |GTH2DL1 |behind TH2QD11 | |10 |GTH2DL3 |behind TH2QD12 | |11 |GTH2DL4 |behind TH2QD21 | |12 |GTH2DL5 |in front of TH3MU1 | |13 |GTH3DL1 |behind TH3MU1 | |14 |GHADDL1 |in front of HADQD11 | |15 |GHADDL2 |behind HADQD11 | |16 |GHADDL3 |behind HADQD12 | |17 |GHADDL4 |in front of HADQD41 | |18 |GHADDL5 |behind HADQD42 | {{::th2dl3.jpg?direct&400|}} {{::th3dl3.jpg?direct&300|}} ===== BLM DAQ and GUI ===== {{::blm_daq.png?direct&300|}} {{::gui1.png?direct&600|}} {{::gui2.png?direct&600|}}
