Calibration of ICARUS Detector Walls at Fermilab

In the summer of 2021, Fermilab had the mission of calibrating their new ICARUS detector with their new liquid argon time projection chamber. The detector's purpose is to shield noise and cosmic rays from interfering with data taken from~detectors and the possible discovery of the fourth neutrino. My job was to analyze the first results recorded, when investigating the different data sets taken from the detectors, we examined a variety of variables. This includes the different plots created: gain, pedestals, spectra, and linear fits. When~improving statistics of the peak finding algorithm used, we halved the bin numbers on the histograms and ran the machine for longer periods of time, which improved the gaussian fits and further improved the pedestal fits captured. We studied the different working thresholds that the detector would operate in. It was found that threshold 280 Analog to digital conversion, was the most apt for our purpose. On top of that it discovered that the best section of the detector that we were analyzing was the center section of both the east and west. These results have aided the team at Fermilab in calibrating the ICARUS detector.
