Tune Electron Beam (Time estimate: 15 days)
- Goal: provide a clean electron beam through the center of the beam aperture to the beam dump in the tagger hall with acceptable radiation levels.
- Priority: High
- Link to the accelerator test plan for electron beam commissioning (ATLIS)
- Expected duration:
- Sept 19 - Sept 29: Tune beam to Hall D line dumplette (Tagger Hall can remain open).
- Sept 29 - Oct 3 2014: Tune beam to Tagger Hall D (Tagger Hall and Hall D must be closed).
- Prerequisites:
- Tagger microscope (TAGM) and all the crates with electronics should be removed from Hall D.
- Responsibility: Hall D technical staff/Tom Carstens
- Goniometer in the beam-open position. The goniometer will not be used during the 2014 run
- Amorphous radiator ladder equipped (HARP included) and operational
- Responsibility: Hovanes Egiyan.
- Procedure for radiator harp scans
- Beam lines under vacuum
- Tagger magnet operational
- Shielding walls installed
- Radiation monitors installed and operational
- Primary collimator block in the position between two holes, shielding the central area of the beam pipe. Secondary collimator removed.
- Profiler counter installed in front of the collimator
- Conditions:
- Pulsed beam pulsed beam 4-10 µA (average 60-150 nA) for the beam tune
- CW beam 50-100 nA at the final stage of the procedure
- No radiator
- Hall D quadrupole magnet MQPAD00 turned off
- Hall D/Tagger Hall locked
- No shift workers in Hall D; experts from Hall D are involved with the radiation measurements
- Activities:
- Tune the pulsed beam to the dump, check the beam specifications, send the CW beam (accelerator).
- Check radiation levels in the tagger hall (Hall D/RadCon).
- Check for photons (with the Profiler and Active Collimator) and radiation levels in the collimator cave (Hall D/RadCon).
- Responsibility: Main: Accelerator; support: HallD, RadCon.
