RC: Stepan Stepanyan (757) 575-7540 9 575 7540 from Counting Room PDL: Harut Avagyan Every Shift: Follow run plan as outlined by RC Ask MCC if orbit locks are on, they should be. Keep shift summery up-to-date in HBLOG Document any beam condition change and send scaler GUIs to HBLOG Send "scaler_hps" GUI to logbook at least twice per shift or any time run conditions change Peform 2H02A harp scan ones per shift or when beam conditions changed based on beam monitors (BPMs, halo rates, beam-viewer) Fill out shift checklist in the logbook, HBLOG, using template at least ones per shift or when run conditions change Continuously check quality of data With any issue contact On-Call Experts or RC. SVT Instructions Before sending beam to Faraday cup, verify (and page expert if otherwise): SVT should be open: "Position" at 0.000 mm in scaler GUI SVT HV is off: all red/green indicators RED in SVT bias GUI The first time sending beam to the Faraday cup after the hall is closed, page the SVT expert. Every Run: a b c d MCC Daily Meetings

Run Plan:March 13-14 (morning) Setup Beam to Hall-B Tagger Dump and Studies of Beam Properties. Ask MCC to turn ON tagger magnet Aid MCC to establish physics quality CW 1 pass beam to the Hall-B tagger dump: When reasonable beam spot is achieved on the tagger dump screen perform harp scans, 2C21 and tagger (2C24) harps. Note: harp scans must be performed with 10 nA beam current MCC delivers beam that is optimized for HPS, beam profile should be small at 2C21 (X/Y widths ~50 um) and should be large at tagger (2C24) harp (widths on 45/Y/X ~300 um), see previous harp scans Make sure 2C21 and 2C24 nA BPMs read stable X/Y positions. Postions on both BPMs must be close to zero as much as possible (at least |X/Y|<1). Make sure orbit locks are on and operational Continueosly check beam positions on 2C21 and 2C24 looking strip charts. Oscilations should not be more than +/-0.05mm Continue with tagger (2C24) harp scans at 10 nA to check beam position and width stability for ~ 1h - scans every 15 min with two settings of the harp "Speed during scan" = 0.5 and "Time between scaler reads" = 0.1 "Speed during scan" = 0.1 and "Time between scaler reads" = 0.1 Beam width in any direction should not depend on the harp scan speed, any dependence will indicate beam position oscilation If beam position (mean values of fitted peaks) are stable with <0.1 mm, and the widths are independent of the scan speed, proceed with the program, otherwise work with MCC to stabilize the beam Study beam tails as a function of current - perform tagger harp scans with different harp setting at 10nA, 20nA, 50nA, 100nA: nominal setting - "Speed during scan" = 0.5 and "Time between scaler reads" = 0.07 "Speed during scan" = 0.5 and "Time between scaler reads" = 0.35 "Speed during scan" = 0.25 and "Time between scaler reads" = 0.7 Harp settings can be changed on the GUI by typing new values in the window For harps analysis use upstream left When Rafayel is on shift, after 4pm, perform beam vertical motion during beam trips and recovery - turn off the beam move tagger harp (2C24) motor to ~97 in absolute position using the expert GUI ask MCC to deliver 100 nA beam, make sure rates on Struck from upstream halo counters are on order of few MHz (if needed make slight movements with motor to get desire rates). Rates can be seen not only on Struck scaler but also on Jorger scaler using fwd_scaler.ald) tell MCC that you will study beam motion during trip and recovery, so they should not bring beam back after the trip without your call start "waveform" program, and ask MCC to deliver beam, 100 nA. When beam trips stop the run after couple of minutes call MCC to see if they are ready to send the beam again, if so start the program again and ask for beam repeat this for at least 10 trips and recovery document each run in the logbook, start and end time and any details if necessary. Send HPS scaler GUI to logbook for every run Beam Energy ~2.0 GeV Current < 200.0 nA CW Position X Y ~0 mm ~0 mm Profile X Y < 0.1 mm < 0.1 mm Target #1 0 mm Magnets PS Current 0 A Chicane Dipole #1 0 A Chicane Dipole #2 0 A DAQ Configuration ___________________ Configuration file Prescales Thresholds Events Per Run Dead Time
