Python scripts to analyze data from breakdown tests with high-voltage test setup at TRIUMF
Add run data and run file paths to the run list in breakdown.py, then run python breakdown.py.
The script will load the data from the run files, partition it into ramps, and then detect breakdowns by comparing the voltage-current curves of each ramp with a designated reference ramp in vacuum. All ramps will be plotted to PDF files.
If RGA scans during any ramps are found in the subfolder RGAdata the script will generate additional PDF plots with the RGA data.
Finally, all breakdown voltages and pressures are plotted into Paschen.pdf
Required Python libraries:
- pandas
- matplotlib
- scipy
