Particle Counters, PDC

(return)

PDCs are a combination of Secondary Emission detectors, scintillators and Ionisation Chambers installed on a movable insert. The variable name in Lassi-spill is: GHTPDI1I (for ionization chamber), GHTPDI1P (scintillator) and GHTPDI1S (SEM detector).

Here is a list of all HEST PDCs used for transmission measurements:

The data - number of counts - are available in FESA under Acquisition:integral (type double). Acquisition:rawData_status provides information if the data is within the detector range.

On November 26th, 2018 a calibration of the HADES PDCs against scintillators was done by Plamen. The calibration factors should be applied to number of particles. Here are there results:
