<- Back to Run Coordination Meetings:Fall2017 Spring2018 Run

Thursday, February 1

1. Notes from the previous 24 hours:
   • After empty target run, beam intermittent. Trouble setting up V-wire TAC run, due to lock on Active Collimator not providing consistent TAC rate.
   • 8 PM start production TAC run with lock on Beam Profiler. TAC rate initially at ~200 kHz, but dropped to 100 kHz overnight.
   • 5:30 AM stopped the TAC run and switch to production: target filled, beamline back in production configuration and production run started.
   •  ? hours of CW beam. BAU: ? hrs (?+?+?), BANU: ? hrs (?+?+?)
   • Spreadsheet: number of triggers.
   • Low level monitoring
2. Issues:
   • Missing BCAL LED triggers and Random pulser (Run 41172)
   • TAC setup
   • TPOL dead channel.
3. Run plan for this week:
   • Low intensity runs planned for tonight: what is the status of min-bias triggers?
4. Today's run plan:
   • At 9 AM (or after run production run 41172):
     • Harp scans by MCC and Hall D (Hovanes on shift)
   • Production running the rest of the day
5. Reports:
   • Preliminary PS acceptance
   • Statistics from RCDB
6. Standing issues:
   • Rate evolution: Work ongoing to compare rho yields to PS flux before and after "step" in PS rate.
   • Polarization status? Came up at MCC meeting, Eugene suggested to report next week.
