Folks,
Let's meet next Friday, January 30th at 1:30pm EST in TL-2236. Some topics are listed below.
In the meantime, the Run 1 wiki has been updated run a chronology of events/logbook entries and the final on-line spreadsheet of runs and on-line results: https://wiki.jlab.org/ciswiki/index.php/Run1_-_January_2015

Lessons learned from Run 1
- Small aperture mouts may be impractical. Thin foils on backing on larger aperture mount seemed okay.
- Replace viewer with either gridded chromox or YAG crystal, and learn how to use video and image tools
- Make measurement, analysis, data logging as automatic and convenient as possible: Media:DataAnaScreen.pdf Media:DataAnaScreen.pptx
- Improve or standardize our capability for beam characterization (emittance, momentum, energy spread, bunch length)
Sibling thickness measurement status
- FESEM measurements
- profile of each target to sample thickness
- profiles of 2-3 targets multiple foil locations (tests uniformity + preparation technique)
- Sibling list
::0.050 um, 6809-B (done)
- 0.225 um, 7029-B
- 0.350 um, 5613-D (changed from A)
- 0.500 um, 5275-C
- 0.625 um, 7028-B
::0.750 um, 5134-B (done)
- 0.870 um, 3057-C
- 1.000 um, 5385-B
- Notes
- FESEM resolution is about 1.5 nm @ 15keV (l=h/p)
- Sibling list of foils used (note, 0.05um foil 12 does not have sibling and both 0.35um foils 8 and 14 have same sibling)
- Images saved as TIFF (highest quality of TIFF, BMP, JPEG)
- ImageJ is free image analysis software hosted by NIH
- Rough first analysis of two foils
Divvy-up analysis and summary writing

- Energy and Time Cuts
- Suggestion described here File:ETCut.pdf and take from Grames thesis, pp.56-73
- Low and High Threshold
- Polarimeter Systematics using "nominal" beam
- Deadtime
- Beam current
- Target position
- Beam position : 0.22um(1) and 1um(15)
- Dump dipole
- Polariimeter Systematics using "off-nominal" beam
- PITA
- Spin Dance
- Spot size
- Cavity phase

Goals/plans for beam test opportunity : Monday Feb 9 + Tuesday Feb 10
- Test hardware TOF veto at 31MHz and 62MHz (6 hours)
- Test FADC without TDC (2 hours)
- Test FADC delayed operation (2 hours)
- Measure emittance with Run 1 conditions (3 hours)
