Total 20.55 1.06 2.39


  1. Accelerator Status over the last 24 hrs
  2. Hall-D/GlueX items
    • In the last 24 hours:
      • Production data taken after 10:30 AM Weds.
      • Long mode run
      • Black spots on diamonds
      • Total triggers collected during last period: 3099M
      • Run Statistics Spread Sheet
      • Current Total: 40.05B
  3. Issues
    • Problems with FCAL crate 9
    • FCAL red light issue
    • TRD gas issue
    • DAQ issues:
      • 5:42 - The DAQ keeps giving us "SEBO: Client has not reported for xx sec." errors, but then recovers after a minute. This happens every ~20mins or so. We will restart the DAQ again after the current run finishes.
      • ~22:00 - Monitoring stops working, have to start/stop runs several times to get events flowing through secondary ET
  4. Monitoring
  5. Run Plan
    • Production
    • Triggers: In-time random? Min-bias? FCAL+BCAL+ST?
  6. Offline Analysis
    • TAC runs?
