RC Meeting Information
RC Daily Meetings are at 4:15 PM, 2nd floor Counting House Meeting Room
Monday 17th Feb. 2020.
General updates
- Late Friday - Early Sunday morning:
- Took carbon optics sieve in data until Saturday morning and production data until downtime for the pass change.
- Opportunistic controlled access during the pass change & escorted access after beam permit for laser work (https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3784881).
- Sunday owl - Monday day:
- Took more carbon optics sieve in data until the target reached polarization ~ 40% (until Monday morning)and production data until 8:30 am on Monday.
Pending problem
- HMS Dipole interlock during Saturday owl shift: reset was successful.
- Fluctuating SHMS Q1 LN2 levels since February 14th: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3785541
- TO of the Sunday owl shift reported an issue with the field correction coil readback which has been causing alarms: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3785664
- Compton ion chamber trip thresholds raised: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3785352
- Fluctuating beam positions: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3785492. Orbit locks are suspended until a certain current value is reached.
- Raster energy alarm, possible cause: it's initialized for 10.43 GeV not 10.383 GeV.
Fixed problem
Recent polarization measurements
- 43.72% longitudinal (https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3785628)
- 49.63% transverse (https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3785781)
Current Run Plan
- Depending on target readiness for production data taking, possible options are Moeller, BCM calibrations and beam energy measurement once we are back in beam permit.
- If beam goes away for more than 2h, or if during the downtime, MCC does operations that may change then beam tuning (except work on transport magnets), then do beam recovery procedure (do YAG viewer part only if you are suspicious of the harp scan results)
- Make sure all the beam specs are followed (e.g. no raster size below 4mm on 3He cell).
- Always take 120Hz of EDTM
- Fill BTA with realistic numbers. You may follow the guidance coming from "load from EPICS", if it does not overestimate the ABU (as it generally does). https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3783171
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! !! !! ATTN: SHIFT LEADERS !! !! Please follow the shift summary template on !! !! the laminated SL instructions. !! !! !! !! ATTN: TARGET OPERATORS !! !! All NMR measurement HCLOG entries should include: !! !! 1) A title that clearly lists polarization !! !! 2) Screenshots of both NMR_FieldSweep and !! !! the polarization fit !! !! !! !! For an example see the following entry: !! !! https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3768696 !! !! !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Future
- General idea: if target polarization is about equal for transverse vs. longitudinal, alternate 4 hours of transverse and 20 hours of longitudinal data taking. Do NMR before and after transverse, and every 5 hours during longitudinal.
- Production at 30 degrees. We may want to start from HMS/SHMS=-2.9/-2.6 momentum setting, complete this and then go back to HMS/SHMS=-3.5/-3.4 momentum.
When there is a down:
Notices in Effect for Shift Crew
- Policy for CANS-related hall status change: Make a logbook entry when the hall goes in, or comes out of laser-controlled access.
- Magnet policies
- Spectrometer GUI (
go_magnets) should always be visible on Shift Leader computer, hcdesk3 - HMS Q1 must be ramped down in 50A steps in all cases
- Do not ramp HMS Q2 to zero, only go to 10A and then switch off power.
- If SHMS dipole trips again, take a screenshot of the PSU window before resetting the interlock and post it to hclog.
- Spectrometer GUI (
- Inform the RC of any access that the Target Team requires. The RC will coordinate with RadCon to make everything run smoothly.
- The operators have been somewhat careful with our beam orbit locks. Please make sure that the orbit locks are enabled and the beam does not drift from its nominal position.
- Ramp rate lock instructions are here and added to checklist[1]
- Temporary Laser instructions can be found here [2]
- Do not change SHMS momentum until we fixed the current lead valve
Planned Accelerator Configuration Changes
- Bluejeans remote connection information:
