TDR for data processing Why TDR?
Rate at target for VEGA running singles.
for 15k rate on Ge centre contacts is:
4 x 4 x 15k = 240k i.e. ave. one g every 4ms.
Recoil-gamma coincidence rate:
CDT dead time is T.O.F ( 1-5ms) (rejected)
or peak+convert+read (12ms) (accepted).
CDT loses data significantly in both cases.
