# Analysis Assumptions
- We consider standard analysis scenarios, i.e., all signals can be queried. If a signal is missing, an analysis can raise a warning and continue or an error and abort the analysis.
- It is recommended to execute each cell one after another. However, since the signals are queried prior to analysis, any order of execution is allowed. In case an analysis cell is aborted, the following ones may not be executed (e.g. I\_MEAS not present).
# Plot Convention
- Scales are labeled with signal name followed by a comma and a unit in square brackets, e.g., I_MEAS, [A].
- If a reference signal is present, it is represented with a dashed line.
- If the main current is present, its axis is on the left. Remaining signals are attached to the axis on the right. The legend of these signals is located on the lower left and upper right, respectively.
- The grid comes from the left axis.
- The title contains timestamp, circuit name, and signal name allowing to re-access the signal.
- The plots assigned to the left scale have colors: blue (C0) and orange (C1). Plots presented on the right have colors red (C2) and green (C3).
- Each plot has an individual time-synchronization mentioned explicitly in the description.
- If an axis has a single signal, then the color of the label matches the signal's color. Otherwise, the label color is black.
In order to perform the analysis of a FPA in an RB circuit please:
1. Select circuit name (e.g., RB.A12)
2. Choose start and end time
3. Choose analysis mode (Automatic by default)
Once these inputs are provided, click 'Find FGC PM entries' button. This will trigger a search of the PM database in order to provide a list of timestamps of FGC events associated with the selected circuit name for the provided period of time. Select one timestamp from the 'FGC PM Entries' list to be processed by the following cells.
**Note that 24 hours is the maximum duration of a single PM query for an event. To avoid delays in querying events, please restrict your query duration as much as possible.**
Table below provides timestamps ordered achronologically and represents the sequence of events that occurred in the analyzed circuit. Only the first PIC timestamp is reported. Note that for iQPS and nQPS only the first timestamp is reported. Tables with all iQPS and NQPS timestamps are presented in the section dedicated to magnet and quench protection analysis. The table also contains time difference in milliseconds from the first event and from the FGC event.
In short, the following criteria should be kept:
- The PC timestamp (51_self) is QPS time stamp +/-20 ms.
- Time stamp difference between FGC and EE at an odd (RR or UJ) point: 290±50 ms
After YETS 2017/8 the EE timestamp odd has been reduced and should now be 100+-50 ms after the FGC time stamp
- Time stamp difference between FGC and EE at an even (UA) point: 600±50 ms
warnings.warn(f"The time difference between PIC and EE ODD is not within the given range_value {value_range_ee_odd}.PIC :{min(timestamp_pic)} and EE_ODD {timestamp_ee_odd}")
warnings.warn(f"The time difference between PIC and EE EVEN is not within the given range_value {value_range_ee_even}.PIC :{min(timestamp_pic)} and EE_EVEN {timestamp_ee_even}")

# 6. Power Converter
## 6.1. Analysis of the Power Converter Main Current
This analysis module displays the main current of the power converter (I_MEAS) compared to the one obtained from the reference FPA (HWC PNO.b2 test with opening of EE systems and without magnet quench).
*ANALYSIS*:
- The evolution of the characteristic time $\tau$ of an exponential decay $f(t)$ is obtained as
Naturally, this formula only applies to exponential decayed characterised by a time constant. Nonetheless, for pseudo-exponential decays, this formula gives a notion of the change of the characteristic time $\tilde{\tau}$. For a circuit we compute the time-varying characteristic time as
- Characteristic time of pseudo-exponential decay of I_MEAS from t=1 to 120 s: 90 s< Tau <110 s
*PLOT*:
- The main power converter current (analyzed and reference) on the left axis, I_MEAS
- The characteristic time calculated for the main current (reference and actual) on the right axis, -I_MEAS/dI_MEAS_dt
The actual characteristic time contains steps, which indicate a quenching magnet (decrease of circuit inductance); note that for the reference one the steps are not present. Timing of PIC abort, FGC timestamp, and the maximum current are reported next to the graph.
- t = 0 s corresponds to the respective (analyzed and reference) FGC timestamps.

The signals in the 2 classes are identical, only the sampling rate differs. The data with the slow sampling rate is no longer generated as they can be found in the logging database. The recording of data is usually triggered during a FPA, depending on current in circuit, and always when a symmetric quench occurs. The PM buffers are only sent if the DQAMGNS crate trips (what ever the reason).|

## 8.3. Analysis of Quench Detection Voltage and Logic Signals for Quenched Magnets

*ANALYSIS*:
- finds the first timestamp, t_st_magnet_ok, for which the ST_MAGNET_OK signal is False indicating that the quench detection signal U_QS0 is outside of the +/- 100 mV threshold.
- for t > t_st_magnet_ok, finds the first timestamp, t_st_nqd0 for which the ST_NQD0 signal is Fals indicating that the U_QS0 signal is outside of the +/- 100 mV threshold for more than the 10 ms discrimination time. This signifies quench detection and results in triggering quench heaters.
- finds U_QS0 value at the moment of quench detection, u_ST_NQD0 = U_QS0(t=t_st_nqd0)
- if the minimum value of the absolute value of U_QS0 is above greater than 100 ms, then find the start time of a quench, t_start_quench, as a moment at which U_QS0 value is 10 mV greater than its initial value. Otherwise, the start time of a quench is set to 0 s.
- finds U_QS0 value, u_start_quench, at the moment of quench start as u_start_quench = U_QS0(t=t_start_quench)
- the slope of the quench detection signals is calculated as du_dt = (u_ST_NQD0 - u_start_quench) / (t_st_nqd0 - t_start_quench)
- the quench detection signal polarity is taken as the sign of its slope
- the delay of the quench heaters triggering, t_delay_qh_trigger, is assumed to be the negative value of t_st_magnet_ok, t_delay_qh_trigger = -t_st_magnet_ok
Determine source of QH trigger for nQPS signals in PM:
- calculates nQPS differences for the symmetric quench detection
- selects only the differences that involve the quenched magnet and exclude already quenched magnets in the cell
- for t in [-0.2 s, t_st_magnet_ok] take the maximum value of voltage difference
- if the maximum is above 1V (considering sun glasses active from t = 0 s) and the time of maximum is less than t_st_magnet_ok, than the QH system was triggered by nQPS, otherwise iQPS
- it is assumed that the first training quench was detected by iQPS
*PLOT*:
