Current Status

  • Accelerator status:
    • Accelerator has only reliably been able to deliver 43uA of beam over the long weekend
    • Will limp along long like this until tomorrow
    • Maintenance day scheduled tomorrow - will hopefully improve things
      • No beam from 07:45
  • Experiment status:
    • Over the weekend, eventually finished data taking for the Q2=6.00, W=2.40, x=0.55, high ϵ settings
      • LD2+ right setting was skipped due to time constraints
    • Currently running Q2=6.00, W=3.19, x=0.39, high ϵ data taking, centre setting - Pion form factor point
    • Progress is slow, ~500 pions an hour (53k target)
    • Rotation to right setting (5.65 degrees) requires an access
      • Can go to left setting first if timing for this is not favourable

Current Run Plan

Notices in Effect for Shift Crew

  • Please pro-rate ABU for max current limit in run plan (uA) in beam time accounting. For example, if we receive 15 uA instead of the max_current_limit in the run plan, then the ABU should be: ABU_prorated = 15/(max current limit) * ABU
  • Check the HMS/SHMS rates for when production starts, since for Heep coin. production SHMS saw higher rates. Make sure shift crew takes snapshot of scalers at every setting
  • When analysing LD2 or Al dummy or LH2, please leave the target_mass_amu in the standard.kinematics as that of the proton, but when analysing the data with the pionLT script, specify the target used, as different targets will have different ranges in the cuts when integrating the missing mass peak. Refer to log entry: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4005387 These instructions are given in the pionLT run plan.
  • Keep an eye on HMS DC chamber wire maps.

Current Issues

Planned Accesses to the Hall

Planned Accelerator Configuration Changes

Special Requests

  • We should consider a BCM calibration soon, even if we don't get high currents
    • Dave M reminds me that we could lose the accelerator tomorrow, so we should try and get at least something done on this
  • Reset laptop in HMS hut - https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4010673
  • Rotation to right setting (5.65 degrees) requires an access
    • Can go to left setting first if timing for this is not favourable
