Thursday, Mar. 21 at 08:45

  1. Past 24 hours:
    • RF recovery during the day shift
    • Beam recovery delayed due to (1) issue in the injector, resolved by evening, then (2) UPS battery needs replacement in the north linac.
  2. Issues
  3. Reports
  4. Today:
    • Production: 200nA, Al 10-4
  5. Run Plan
    • Production running: when beam returns, check beam conditions as follows:
      1. do harp scans, both accelerator and Hall D radiator
      2. check radiation monitor rates in tagger hall and Hall D
      3. verify transmission in PSC and PS coincidence rates @ 200nA, 1e-4 radiator
    • Beam studies planned for day shift on Monday
    • RF Recovery scheduled for Tuesday

  1. Past 24 hours:
    • beam recovery, conditions checked, running resumed.
  2. Issues
  3. Reports
  4. Today:
    • Production: 200nA, Al 10-4
  5. Run Plan
    • Production running continues
    • Beam studies planned for day shift on Monday
    • RF Recovery scheduled for Tuesday

Monday, Mar. 25 at 08:45

  1. Past 72 hours:
    • production running on He target until Sunday 5:30pm
    • continued running on empty target through Monday 8:30am
    • now in controlled access, RF recovery underway
  2. Issues
  3. Reports
    • Several reference plots for monitoring histograms out of date (logbook entry 3671340)
    • Active collimator lock is mostly working, sometimes fights to keep up (logbook entry 3671214)
    • Accelerator using machine development time to investigate this effect in Hall D
  4. Today:
    • work on solenoid during 9:00am - 12:00pm, warm-up to begin (logbook entry 3670889)
    • accelerator plans to work on Hall D line optics during second half of day shift
  5. Run Plan
    • Production running continues
    • Beam studies planned for day shift on Monday
    • RF Recovery scheduled for Tuesday

Tuesday, Mar. 26 at 08:45

  1. Past 24 hours:
    • access day shift on Monday, out at 3:00pm
    • beam restored by
    • empty-target running continues
  2. Issues
    • Ongoing problems with dropped communication to CDC HV crate (logbook entry 3671943, crate rebooted)
    • Reboot of CompCal HV crate failed to restore comms, crate is replaced (logbook entry 3671980)
    • Accelerator switched to manual current adjustment overnight, attenuator problems (logbook entry 3672307)
    • Ongoing DAQ issues (logbook entry 3672178)
    • Advice to shift crew
      1. shift summaries are great for overview of what happened during a shift
      2. this summary is NOT a replacement for separate logbook entries related to exceptional conditions or events
      3. PLEASE make separate logbook entries to report ANY SIGNIFICANT ISSUES that come up!
  3. Reports
  4. Today:
    • machine rf recovery during day shift
    • accelerator
  5. Run Plan
    • Production running continues
    • Beam studies planned for day shift on Monday
    • RF Recovery scheduled for Tuesday
