Target coil rotation planned for March 13--20
- Nominal 1-week downtime in Hall C to rotate target coils, install new cell, and transition to d2n program
Punchlist (updated regularly)
This work is for planned for Sunday day shift.
Need to confirm arrival time with RadCon and Techs - Confirm what access mode with the Hall be in. - Best case is to be in standard mode with laser fibers locked out. (All people working on pivot should add their lock.)
Techs w/ RadCon [Todd (or designate) for cooling jets]
- Turn on turbos for downstream beamline
- Turn on turbos for SHMS and HMS spectrometer vacuums
- Remove the guards on the SHMS and HMS entrance windows
- Remove the guards on the both upstream and downstream beamline windows
- RadCon will remove the bag on the upstream window
- Ensure the beamline window cooling jets are in position and on
- Ensure the target window cooling jets are in position and on
- Install the target enclosure panels
- ??
Miscellaneous
- [Gaskell] Beamline checklist
- [OPS, Jay] Schedule hot checkout of Hall C arc magnets/power-supplies
- [OPS, Jay] Verify all relevant FSDs that may have been masked for the down are known about and ready to unmasked when appropriate
- [Lassiter] Enable all spectrometer magnet supplies (if not ready now?)
- [Brad] Double check that rotation is enabled in the GUIs for both spectrometers (should be)
- [Brad] Ramp all SHMS and HMS magnets to something modest (quick check), or to first kinematic. For example:
- SHMS: 11.0deg, 7.5 GeV/c
- HMS: 13.5deg, 4.2 GeV/c
- NOTE: Coordinate with the target group on the appropriate HB setting so we don't interfere with any target pumping.
- [Techs, Brad?] Do a final check to ensure that there are no potential issues with remote spectrometer rotation
- Restart main alarm handler (resets masked channels)
- ??
Target Group
- The camera in the laser box needs to be realigned
- The rotating motor controller not fully working.
- Needs Ethan’s help at some point to look into it
- Transverse laser spectra-analyzer signal currently is not separate from longitudinal. We had it disconnected to avoid interference. May need to find a way to get separate signal.

Misc Questions / Comments
- Locate collimator for 1-pass running (RadCon?)
- Repair/Replace failed laser from Saturday [1]
- Does the nitrogen gas panel on upstream of target have enough play to rotate? (Jack, Andy?)
- Only clean the enclosure panels with isopropyl -- do not use Spray-9 (it leaves a residue that prevents the tape from sticking)
- Make sure the spectrometers can rotate
- S & A needs the SHMS to be at 30 degrees for their initial setup
- Keep the SHMS beam-left side fairly clear to allow S & A to access their floor targets
- May impact where the parasitic test stand goes
- Interlock switches and cables are in the CH (Brad)
- Develop a plan with RadCon for working in around the target enclosure (contamination risks)
- Find our good label maker and pre-make labels for cables that we know we will have to disconnect (Arun, Junhao, Bill?)
- Any special pNMR, EPR commissioning plans (JP, Todd?)
- Field and compass measurement plan (Wolfgang, Murchhana)
- Follow up on Hall C slit study and impact when we get to operations [2]
Notes
- Leave window nitrogen jets on until ready to remove the beamline spools
- Concensus was to have radcon put a guard on the windows, then pull a bag over them filled with N2 and taped around the beamline.
- RadCon has bagged them in past accesses to mitigate potential contamination. There is no point in blowing nitrogen onto the bagged windows.
- Could be very tight for coils to clear the flange on the upstream beamline (after beam window spool is off)
- Will need to drill and tap new holes on the Al baseplate on the target
- The baseplate rotates under the posts supporting the vertical correction coils, new holes needed to bolt the posts to in new orientation
- Use black marker to ensure that the vertical correction coils go back where they were
- Start work days at 8am (incl. weekend days)
Target Group Plan
ATLis / CLists
- Beamline window removal/installation (ATLis)

- Parasitic Cerenkov test installation/checkout
- MCC/OPS: Revert Hall C to 4m dispersion optics [3] when beam returns
- Can this be setup to the dumplette next week? (Jay, Whit)
Bullet point Plan
Very high-level outline from Bert (Most of this would start on Saturday)
- remove 6 helmholtz coil covers and 2 beampipes
- sharpie mark corrector coil location and rotations (so they go back in the same way)
- remove 4 corrector coil stands let corrector coils rest on bottom
- tape measure locate 4 new 3/8-16 tapped holes for the corrector coil stands
- check for items that will affect coil rotation
- rotate helmholtz coils ccw 45 degrees (to zero)
- survey helmholtz coils to zero degrees
- install covers and new beampipes
- check jet nozzles did not get disturbed for the beampipes
Friday, March 13
- It would be useful for Ethan, Bert, and the Techs to get in in the morning (after panels are off) and talk through the job
- Techs load up hardware for Hall in ESB in the morning
- Locate the extra beamline windows (found: in the big white box in ESB -- BDS)
