MCC whiteboard

Hall D counting room white board

Thursday June 9

  1. Last 24h:
    • Ion Chamber calibration
    • Radiation levels checks done (levels are very good).
  2. Reports
  3. Plans

Wednesday June 8

  1. Last 24h:
    • Ops is tuning the beam and asked Hall D to be ready by 11am-noon for physics beam. We restored shift starting at noon. But beam is coming only just now (7am-8am, Thursday 9th). Doing Ion Chamber calibration
      • Lost a few hours because of repair work done on a fan dropped a zone (miscommunication with Facility).
      • Struggled to tune Hall C and this put Hall D tune on backburner. Wasted 8-10h (whole night) trying to tune Hall C with two magnets off, which is not possible. DC power group is e-assessing their HCO procedure.
      • One of the quadrupole (MQP5C09) on Hall D line tripped on overtemperature. Probably due to clogged cooling line. Needed to investigate so brought down North Linac and ramped down our tagger magnet. This quad. is now off and will (tentatively) be repaired at next maintenance day. CASA devised a tune for us that does not use this quads.
    • Yesterday MCC safety minute: The PD saw a water mocassin eating a bullfrog in his pound => watch for snakes.
  2. Reports
    • A. Somov replaced two boards during late afternoon (rapid access).
    • If you need access, put your name on Hall D white board (access list) and let RC know.
  3. Issues
    • Maybe problem with 2-spot beam (two beams differing in energy by 10^-3). Not clear if this is present with CW beam. If it is, fixinf this may delay the program: fixing this is of the highest priority for Ops.
    • While walking to MCC yesterday (Wed. June 8th) afternoon, I passed a snake that was basking in the sidewalk gutter => watch for snakes.
  4. Plans
    • Ops still have some work to do: Establish high current in Hall C. Start Hall B (tomorrow?).
    • Assess beam quality, optimize beam transmission, checkout/calibrate systems.
