Beam and Hall configuration
- Beam energy expected:
- 11.630 GeV (10 MeV less than value for Fall 2016 to Fall 2018 up Nov. 15th, due to imbalanced linac setting).

- 250 MHz frequency.

- Radiators:
- Goniometer radiators:
- Diamond JD70-104 (17 μm - 1.4·10-4 R.L., 7×7 mm²) - wider rocking curve - Tested in Spring 2018 and used at the beginning of Fall 2018. Probably has some radiation degradation.
- Diamond JD70-105 (47 μm - 3.9·10-4 R.L., 7×7 mm²) - Used for the second part of GlueX's Fall 2018 run. Good performance.
- 40 μm Al radiator (44.9·10-5 R.L.)
- V-wire (for TAC run).
- Amorphous
- 1.64 µm Al (1.86·10-5 R.L., see study)

- Be target 18 mm, 5·10-4 R.L. </font>
- Miscellaneous:
- CPP (Charged pion polarizability) tests
- To be set-up and done during the last day of DIRC allocated commissioning time.
- Use LH2 target, keep solenoid on at nominal field, DIRC stays in nominal position.
- Move downstream platform downstream
- Install passive shielding in front of TOF.
- Tests (to be done at various positions of passive shielding).
- End of test: remove shielding, ramp down solenoid.
- Transition Radiation Detector in the Hall
- Parasitic
- CPP (Charged pion polarizability) tests
General Information
This document describes the run plan for the Hall D Spring 2019 run.
- Schedule for the run:
- Jan. 22nd - 29th: Electron beam restoration
- Jan. 30th - Feb. 12th: 2-weeks DIRC Commissioning (Solenoid at nominal field. LH2 target))
- Feb. 12th: 1 day of CPP test?? (Solenoid at nominal field. LH2 target))
- Feb. 12th - Apr. 7th: 8.5-weeks PrimEx-eta run (Solenoid off. No target, then Be then 4He target ).
- Nominally, every Mondays: 12h of beam study. Every Tuesdays, if necessary: 8h of RF recovery.
- Accelerator overall plan and priorities:
- Deliver physics beam to 4 halls. (Hall A stop early, on March. 10th. Halls B and or C will always be at 5th pass, so Hall D beam will always be RF-separated.)
