Revision as of 15:12, 6 December 2021

Monday, December 6, 2021

  • Last 24 hours
    • Production running on Sn target
      • Established 90 nA for production, limited by region 3 DC current and occupancy
      • Gas alarm on FMT caused HV to shut down. [1] This wasn't noticed until 11 PM, i.e., runs 15320 to 15324 are missing the FMT.
      • Overnight BOM trips caused frequent FSD
    • This morning began switching to Ca-48 target
      • Went to restricted access at 7:30 AM
      • Work is still underway
      • Dan updated FTOF HV Settings
      • BOM repairs are complete
  • Issues
    • DC Occupancies [2]
    • SVT / MVT / BMT Occupancies
    • Writing to tape
  • Upcoming Plan
    • This evening, we will begin production on Ca-48
      • Re-establish beam, retune 2H01
      • Luminosity scan to establish production current
      • Any other calibrations?
  • Analysis
    • 2.0 GeV vs. 1.6 GeV for BAND calibrations

Friday, December 3, 2021

  • Last 24 hours
    • Mostly good beam, production running on C
    • Orbit Lock changed to 2H01 yesterday at 3PM
    • Low current run (20 nA), Run 15285, yesterday evening
    • Resumed 90 nA production running on C at the end of Swing
    • More DAQ issues resurfaced over night
      • Led to many short runs, which DO have good data and should be analyzed
  • Issues
    • More DAQ trouble
      • Sergey switched the DAQ configuration to PROD66_noVTPread
    • Torus cryo alarm at 9:45 PM
  • Upcoming Plan
    • Sunday, 12/5, 8AM, Switch from C to Sn
      • This time works for Eugene.
      • Eugene's help will be needed to recenter the beam on target
    • Monday, 12/6, Switch from Sn to Ca
      • Hall will go to restricted access from approx 7:30 AM to 5PM for target change work.
      • Denny is coordinating with MCC / RadCon to support this access.
    • Weekend meetings
      • RC/PD meetings scheduled for 9AM over the weekend on the usual BJ.
      • No daily RC Meeting over the weekend, but I will send an RC e-mail update.
      • Are analysis meetings needed?
  • Analysis Meeting to Follow

Thursday, December 2, 2021

  • Last 24 hours
    • RF Recovery Day
    • 20:30 Began restablishing beam to the Hall
    • 10:45 Resumed production Running
    • Overnight DAQ issues
    • 04:00 - 08:00 Beam down due to blown fuse (Logbook entry)
    • More DAQ Issues in the morning
    • 11:10 Stable running again
  • Updated monitoring reference run to 15283 (from today)
  • DAQ Issues
  • MVT Trips Example
  • Question of DC Sector 1 Occupancies before Wednesday
  • Short-term plan
    • As of yesterday, plan was to switch to Sn on Friday afternoon, Ca on Monday.
      • Denny Insley plans to call for restricted access at 7:30 AM (Mon. 12/6), with goal to start work by 8:15 AM, finish by around the end of the day shift.
    • Any changes to this plan?
    • Any calibrations still needed on C (low current runs, etc.)?
  • Analysis Meeting to follow

Wednesday, December 1, 2021

  • RC Change-over
  • Re-establishing beam this afternoon/evening
  • Short-term run plan
