How-to's

Magnets

  • Magnet screen is brought up on any hcdesk machine using
 % go_magnets
  • For the Fall 2017 run, the SHMS magnets can be set by current from the desired momentum in [GeV]. From any computer, run:

% ./getSHMS P

where P is the desired momentum in [GeV]. The formulas and program should be kept in sync with the repository. For optimal stability, all magnets should be put "on loop". This is done by first setting the polarity, then setting the magnet to a maximum current, and then ramping down to the desired current. The maximum currents for putting a magnet on loop are shown below:

SHMS Magnet Max current [A]
HB 3600
Q1 2400
Q2 3660
Q3 2480
Dipole 3450
