Friday July 8 - Sunday July 10

Past 72 hours

  • 6B events on lead have been collected
  • FMWPC 1 noise level increased yesterday evening [1],

Beni noticed the chamber HV might be OFF [2]

past distributions for comparison:

Shift reports

Reports

  • New high voltages were loaded for FCAL [13]
  • Hovanes has updated AMO radiator position [14]

Issues

  • Tagger NMR communication will be worked out this week (Tim) [15]
  • Beam instability in y Beni

Plans

  • Continue production on lead
  • unmask FCAL modules in the trigger


Thursday July 7

Past 24 hours

  • harp scans were done during short beam on period during day-time, some distributions show 1/100 peak/shoulders ratio others 1/10,000 [16] [17]
  • Dominion Power's work required a voltage reduction so we had tagger, PS and sweep magnets off for a couple of hours
  • collected cosmics and LED runs during daytime, and production on lead (about 8 hrs) during night time
  • Beni: beam was quite stable overnight [18]

Shift reports

Reports

  • Sasha checked FCAL trigger rate without masking inner layers. Preliminary result for the rate was 14kHz [19]
  • Hovanes pointed out, that we don't observe 60Hz oscillations now [20]

Issues

  • Problems with running at 30nA on AMO, radiator thickness was reduced to 3*10^-4 this night,

as 4.5*10^-4 was causing IOC trips [21] [22]

  • Alexandre just noticed that Tagger magnet NMR communication is down again [23]
  • DIRC major alarm has been acknowledged [24], Mark may need to investigate this issue more
  • Dave has noticed we have a higher radiation level values now, about factor of 1.5 [25], [26]
  • Hydra alarm on fa125_itrig [27]
  • daq livetime is uneven from time to time [28]

Plans

  • Continue production on lead
  • find out the way to unmask FCAL modules

Wednesday, July 6

Past 24 hours

  • Malte and Mark worked on FCAL bases replacement [29]
  • One of the RF crates had been disconnected, Beni fixed it [30]
  • Bobby and others worked in the tagger hall during the day. At 3:30 pm Bobby noticed that the IOC for the NMR was not responding properly. MCC rebooted the IOC crate. Afterward, it was still locked on zero and there was still a Comm Status error [31]
  • Beni found that the solenoid controls hung, and restarted the ramping, which was helpful.
  • Had minor issues with DAQ at 7.00 pm: ROCFDC11 error: timeout error on FA125, every 3 seconds. (fADC125 in fdc11 slot 3 was replaced during daytime [32]) Sergei worked out the DAQ issue at 7.50 pm
  • Established operating field of the solenoid at 8:30 pm.
  • harp scans are ongoing now

Shift reports

Reports

  • Sergey and Lubomir worked in the Hall this night from 10 pm to 11:30 pm [33]
  • Hovanes reported his study of the coherent peak position drifts observed on the 4th of July [34]
  • Still have 60Hz structure [35]. The situation is improved according to MCC experts.
  • CDC HV and TAGM alarms are more frequent now
  • CDC gas flow increased [36]

Issues

  • Hovanes pointed out that something strange happened during solenoid ramping up [37] [38]

Plans

  • Continue production on lead
  • Unmasking FCAL central modules from the trigger needs to be done unless it increases rate too high
