We observed that there was a new channel that had high noise after installation. It was not there during test with the source. Could be dust or a real pin hole

Module fully installed but powered off. Out sensor is ~177cm from the exit window.
Mike setting up electron gun; some tuning is needed on the beam line since last experiment ran at 60MeV instead of 120MeV.

Noise before beam:

10:30
Beam E=119.3MeV, 50pC at gun, 10Hz
Start with 0 foils in order to search for the beam on the insertable phosphor screen.
The Phosphor screen is at ~75cm from exit window.
We use the measured voltage on the toroid located downstream of the spectrometer magnet: "ADC1".
At this point ADC1=0.06V which is ~40pC according to Mike.

10:37
Move in foils one by one and observe beam spot on phosphor screen. Picture and extracted spot size at each thickness can be seen below. The screen is about 75cm downstream of the exit window.

...

10:49
Lower bunch charge.
Insert 6 foils.
Still possible to see the beam on the phosphor screen but barely.
Mike estimates this to be order of 1fC/bunch.

Everything looks ok for 1pC setting.

At 10pC and 500V we observed a channel with x3 higher noise in the "weird" apv chip which looked like a pinhole candidate. However, after cycling the bias it went awayit seem to go away with lower bias voltage.
We observe a previously unseen step in the noise from 30 to 35 ADC in the middle of both working APV25. This step was turning on over a couple of channels. Not sure what this is.

Continue to 100pC and 180V.
Here we see a drastic change and what looks like many shorts has developed across the sensors. We don't see any case where the channel get a larger noise but they all go down to a level of about 20ADC.
The step in noise also become worse.

...

Since we'd like to keep some channels alive we stop at this point.
