Forecast 2019

JAN 2 - JAN 22 (3 week SAD/PSS period) SAD
MUST
SHOULD

  • Implement 1kV anode safe floating bias supply inline with anode-picoammeter
LIKE
FEB 1 - Arne's target date for LERF to be ready
Good photocathode
Gun reaches HV
Laser/DLCP ready to go
Let's work with Chris and Shaun to develop a plan to restore beam through QCM (will be 2K)
No firm Radioisotope run dates yet
JAN 30 - APR 7 (10 week run period)
Similar to this run with A=30, B=polarized, C=50-70uA, D
Hall A run short until MAR 7, then a 3 day PQB tests a 1-pass 70uA
APR 8 - JUN 2 (8 week SAD period)
PQB Studies?
