2. MICE CM Berkeley 9-12 Feb. 05 11 February 2005 Edda Gschwendtner 2 Detector Expert’s Terminology Running conditions  HV, T, P, mixture, alignment, dead channel, (detector configuration). Either: Slow control Come from special analysis from data Special events (calibration events)  Empty events (computing pedestal)  Triggers (Cosmics, sources)  pulsers (auto-induced by DAQ) Pulsing the electronics (e.g. gives gain-curve)  Laser, LED, muons… Monitoring parameters (on-line)  Basic, timing distribution, pulse-height distribution Needs special trigger Not beam related. Beam off, or in-between. Need Slow Control Basic analysis
