*Now that we know the beam-interaction point, we start looking at the SHMS. Use the Carbon optics target and beam raster pattern as before, and the collimator (no sieve slit needed yet). For SHMS, the point-to-point optics at the focal plane will look skewed as the horizontal bend magnet will ruin the regular symmetry of the spectrometer optics, so x and y will be coupled. Thus, for the SHMS you may have to compare simulated focal plane patterns with measurements to be able to judge if quadrupole fields differ from expected although you can do much with just looking at the focal plane pattern. First verify that we have obtained a point-to-point focus with the extrapolated quadrupole settings, by looking at plots of hsxfp vs. hsyfp. The SHMS should have a “tilted” hour glass pattern for a point target source, with the waist of the hourglass at (0,0). If not, vary the quadrupole settings in small steps (try 0.2, 0.5 or 1% steps. Q2 is most sensitive and 0.2% steps should be sufficient for Q2 – the gradient of motion of the hourglass waist is roughly 2 cm per % Q2 change. For Q1 it is about -0.4 cm per % Q1 change), until the golden tune (this is defined as the SHMS quadrupole settings that most closely reproduces the simulated sieve slit patterns at the focal plane) is obtained. Measure a spectrum with high statistics (>>100K) to use for later off-line checks and to continue the second phase of detector checkout – this is needed before starting the sieve slit runs. Check the time-to-distance maps, align the wire chamber positions in software and enable linked stub fitting, check the detector positions, check the timing and calibration constants (shower counter gains, pedestals, timing offsets, pulse height corrections, attenuation lengths, efficiencies, position dependencies). Optimize tracking properties. Make sure that <math>\Theta</math> and <math>\Phi</math> spectra are wide as expected. Construct <math>x</math>, <math>y</math>, <math>\Theta</math>, and <math>\Phi</math> spectra at the nominal focal plane. Does everything look reasonable? Check tracking with one wire chamber set against tracking with two wire chamber sets. Reconstruct target quantities.

*Use the SHMS sieve slit with the middle vertical column centered in combination with the Carbon optics target. Use a current of less than 20 μA. Preferentially, the fast raster should be off for this series of measurements. However, a small fast raster size of 1 by 1 mm2 should also work. Measure a short Carbon spectrum of perhaps 100K events. Produce an ntuple, and do the following: make a spectrum of x vs y at the nominal focal plane. What you should see is a tilted ``spider" with 9 legs. The center of the spider/hourglass should be at (x,y) = 0 if everything went right. If not, check the beam interaction point and check the quadrupole magnet settings. Because the HB magnet destroys the mid-plane symmetry of the SHMS, you likely will need to compare simulated focal plane patterns with measurements to be able to judge if quadrupole fields are o.k. If you do see a difference you can try to change the quadrupole settings by say 0.1% and measure a new run and produce an ntuple to compare. If the patterns look similar we are done with establishing the Standard SHMS tune beyond the dispersion.

HMS/SHMS Magnet Cycling Procedures

HMS

  • ALWAYS set DIPOLE by NMR coming DOWN from 900 A
  • Set QUADS by initially setting to a current of 200 A above the set currents (or the maximum current of 1100 A for Q1 if set current + 200 > 1100), and then coming DOWN.

SHMS

  • General principal: A magnet will be “on loop” if it has been taken to Imax (11 GeV) and stays on the descending branch of the hysteresis loop. Otherwise it is "off loop"
  • Cycle procedure: Go to Imax and descend to target current.
  • Action logic table
Status/Action Magnet status is “on loop” Magnet status is “off loop”
Increasing abs(p) at this polarity Descend to target current Cycle
Decreasing abs(p) at this polarity Cycle Cycle
Changing polarity Set to 0 current, switch polarity, cycle Set to 0 current, switch polarity, cycle

HMS/SHMS collimator: PION/SIEVE , COLLIMATOR/CENTERED SIEVE

HMS angle/momentum 27.5 deg, -3.609 GeV/c

  • We will take a set of 1H(e,e’p) measurements to check the angle and dp/p offsets for the spectrometers. Use a current of 50 μA if possible. Rotate both HMS and SHMS to -27.5° again (or keep them there if already at that angle). Keep both HMS and SHMS at a central momentum of -3.609 GeV/c. First use the sieve slit on the SHMS side and the central Carbon optics target. Use the Particle Id. trigger, and measure about 2K singles in SHMS (that should take about one hour). Now install the 10 cm hydrogen target and measure about 2K singles in SHMS (that is again about one hour). Now take a coincidence spectrum in the same situation, again a measurement of about one hour. Remove the sieve slit on the SHMS side and use the large collimator. Measure a coincidence spectrum for one hour (rate should be 4 Hz, so this will get >10K statistics). Now install the sieve slit on the HMS side and measure another coincidence spectrum for a few hours (a few K statistics).

  • Take runs to acquire roughly 10K events for HMS (use the large pion collimator!) at angles of 27.5°, 28.8°, 30.1°, 24.9°, and 26.2°. For SHMS at identical angles but also at angles of 31.8°, 33.5°, 35.2° and 23.2°. Roughly, at the central setting you need 45 minutes to acquire 10K statistics, and less at the lower angles, but perhaps 1.5 hour at 30.1°, and up to 5 hours at the largest SHMS angle of 35.2°.
