- PS test area (tests will be performed in parallel with GlueX data taking):
General Information
This document describes the run plan for the Hall D Spring 2025 run.
- Schedule for the run (see 2025 official schedule (draft)):
- January TBD: Electron beam restoration.
- January 24th - July 20th: 26 weeks for upgraded ECal commissioning and GlueX-II/JEF.
- Accelerator overall plan and priorities: Deliver physics beam to 4 halls
- Anything special for other hall runs?
- Hall D plan summary:
- Beam and detector check-out: 50 - 300 nA. ~ a day.
- Commission the upgraded ECal (~ a month. 150 nA)
- Diamond alignment: Stable (no frequent trip) 20 nA without FSD for 2-3 shifts.
- Experiment: GlueX-II/JEF E12-12-002
- TBD TAC runs. ~nA or less. The bleedthrough should be small compare to it.
- High luminosity runs: up to 1 week at 650nA, and up to 1 day at 1 uA.
- Empty target runs: TBD (300 nA).
- Straight track run: 2 shifts (50% efficiency: one shift of good data) (50 nA).
- Opportunistic tests?.

Live Camera Feeds from the Four Counting Houses
- These feeds SHOULD be open and visible at all times from one of the monitors in each of the counting houses. (currently this is not working; we should post instructions how to establish this connection. J.R.)
- Management cautions AGAINST opening them from other locations or offsite, out of concern for available bandwidth.
