keyword=beam current on dummy
In February the maximum current we could get on the dummy target was something like 15uA. For higher currents the ion chambers would trip the beam off. So we startes with 15uA on the dummy. I called MCC and asked them about the ion chamber status. They were getting 0.1krad/h on one and 1.5krad/h on the other chamber. They called RadCon and were told, that the ion chambers trip at 5krad/h. That means we have some headroom to play with and should be able to take 20-25uA on the dummy targets.
