New in 2024: The software was adapted for migration to the latest version of the developer tools and then modified to support the upgraded Facility hardware. While all this is a major undertaking, the user interface remains unchanged, except for some minor details.
New in 2024: Beam-energy degraders were installed on the K150 beam line. The software was modified to support that addition.
New in 2022: Data from the most-recently finished run are now available in JSON format in file Run_Data.json. The file is located in the Seuss program folder.
New in 2022: In Set Options the Low flux warning level is re-purposed and renamed to Background flux level. The new parameter has the same effect as the old one did. However, if the flux measured within one of the regular one-second intervals during a run is below the background level, one second will added to total dead time while the live time will not incremented.
New in 2022: In Set Run Parameters the Current run number window is replaced with the Next run number window.
New in 2021: A pdf tutorial for new users is now available (see above).
New in 2021: The list of K500 beams in the Select Beam window has been updated and made consistent with the list of K500 beams available for radiation testing. A separate list of K150 beams in the Select Beam window, consistent with the list of K150 heavy-ion beams available for radiation testing, is now presented when K150 cyclotron is selected. (Change Setup window can be used to choose between the K500 and the K150 cyclotron).
New in 2021: Atomic mass numbers of the beams on the menu in the Select Beam window are now indicated on the labels. Atomic mass number of the beam is now a part of the beam name displayed in the Current settings.
New in 2020: For the standard TAMU ion beams propagating in aluminum, aramica, air, and the most common substrates, the LET and range calculations performed by SeussW have been updated. The results now agree with those obtained using the SR.exe program distributed in 2019. (The file date is 2012-10-16.). The supported substrates include Si, GaAs, GaN, SiC, SiGe, InP, and NaI. Others can be added on request. An option is available to run these calculations in the legacy mode.
New in 2020: The range table is more refined and more precise. The first row of the table reflects the actual setting. The table caption contains the Bragg-peak parameters.
New in 2020: The message box on run pause also specifies the accumulated dose in rad.
New in 2020: The run number increment can be set to an arbitrary positive integer.
New in 2015: Support for the K150 cyclotron Radiation Testing Beamline has been added
New in 2014: 24.8 MeV/u Ag has been added to the list of routinely available beams
New in 2010: 15.0 MeV/u He, 15.0 MeV/u N, 24.8 MeV/u He, 24.8 MeV/u N, and 40.0 MeV/u N have been added to the list of routinely available beams
New in 2010: Number of supported layers has been increased from 10 (0-9) to 100 (0-99)
New in 2008: Computerized roll angle control for in-air setup
