MULTIPAC testbench

This library is designed to post-treat the data from the MULTIPAC multipactor test bench at LPSC, Grenoble, France.

Installation

Users

  1. Create a dedicated Python environment, activate it.
  2. Run pip install multipac_testbench

[!NOTE] If you are completely new to Python and these instructions are unclear, check this tutorial. In particular, you will want to:

  1. Install Python 3.11 or higher.
  2. Learn to use Python environments, pipenv or virtualenv.
  3. Install a Python IDE such as Spyder or VSCode.

Developers

  1. Clone the repository: git clone git@github.com:AdrienPlacais/multipac_testbench.git
  2. Create a dedicated Python environment, activate it.
  3. Navigate to the main multipac_testbench folder and install the library with all dependencies: pip install -e .

Note that you will need Python 3.11 or higher to use the library.

If you want to use conda, you must manually install the required packages defined in pyproject.toml. Then, add multipac_testbench.src to your $PYTHONPATH environment variable.

Project info

Future updates

  • [x] Calibration of new field probes.
  • [x] Implementation of Retarding Field Analyzer.
    • [x] RPA grid in V instead of kV.
  • [ ] sweet_plot updates for better RPA treatment:
    • [ ] Allow for head argument, working similarly to tail.
    • [x] Argument to plot increasing and decreasing values differently. Useful when plotting RPA current against RPA grid voltage.
  • [ ] Option to plot maximum of a signal per power cycle.
  • [x] Bug fix: Upper threshold is given even when we did not exit the multipactor zone.
  • [x] Adding a post-treater to Power instruments should be reflected in SWR and ReflectionCoefficient calculations.
  • [x] Add notebook execution to normal test workflow.
    • [x] Add jupyter installation to pip deps for test

Labviewer to-do

  • [x] Automatic export binary -> xlsx or csv
  • [x] Automatic export of individual power step files
  • [ ] Allow to take last value from individual power step file rather than highest
  • [ ] Fix synchro of dBm column
