Useful Links

Instruction for RCs

  • Half-wave plate change
    • Follow the instructions in the link above whenever the HWP is changed flipped.
  • There was discussion of a heat and reactivation in the 08:00 meeting on 07/11/23.
    • If this happens, will need another Moeller measurement.

Past 24 hours

  • Moeller measurement, took a bit longer than planned. An access was required, see Dave Gaskell's summary here.
  • Back to production running after the Moeller measurement.

Issues:

RC Summary

Today's update is here.

Current Status

  • Running production on KinC_x50_4' after.
  • Access to investigate block 497.

Near Future Plan

In the near term future:

  • Keep running the current setting.
  • Wednesday Owl, beam studies from 05:00-07:45
    • We will do a cosmics run of ~2 hours with the sweeper on followed by another ~2 hour run with the sweeper off.
  • On Wednesday, we will have ~8 hours or so to access the Hall during the maintenance downtime. Planned activities -
    • Heidi wants to take a look at the SHMS door after the issue on Wednesday.
    • Noisy block in Column 8, Row 22 - Take a look at if it still looks odd.
    • Wait to see if amplifiers will survive before replacing more bases.
    • Remove more bases - take another column out.
      • One column takes ~1-2 hours (to remove).
      • May have time to remove 2?
    • Measure B field at location of bases?
      • Gain vs x dependence.
      • Does sweep magnet have to be off to get near the NPS?
      • Need to confirm access restrictions ASAP.
      • Carry out measurement after work to remove column 1 and NPS moved back to 3m.
  • Asked MCC for a controlled access ASAP on Wednesday.
    • Radcon has us in the queue, the NL, SL and injector are all going to controlled so will have priority.
    • My suspicion is that we'll be swept around 09:00 with access possible 09:30-10:00.

Special Studies

  • Cosmics with sweeper on vs off - Owl Wednesday
    • 05:00 - Sweeper OFF, target out. 2 hour cosmic run.
    • 07:00 - Sweeper ON, target out. 2+ hour cosmic run.
  • Elastics on Saturday.
    • Arrange movement of NPS to 9m between 10:00-14:00 Saturday.

Standing Issues

Planned Accesses to the Hall Today

  • None

Planned Accelerator Configuration Changes

  • Pass change on the 13th of November (13/11/23).

Special Requests
