Moller Polarimeter meeting, April 20, 2012
-
Moller Polarimeter Status
- Moller polarimeter measures beam polarization;
- Q1 magnet field mapping is done
- Moller quads shift is smaller but not zero.
PREX Quads shift GEANT vs. Measurement (Eb=1.06GeV) (plot)
g2p Quads shift GEANT vs. Measurement (Eb=2.25GeV) (plot)
g2p Quads shift GEANT vs. Measurement (Eb=1.71GeV) (plot)
- Progress with old DAQ upgrade
- FADC data triggers analysis still is not available
- Discrepancy between old and new DAQs (0.1-0.5%) (plot)
and (plot)

12 GeV Upgrade Status and Summer Plans
- Design
- New detector shielding box - design is finished
- Moller beam line - design is finished
- Dipole shielding insertion - design is finished
- New Moller quadrupole magnet - design is finished
- Bench for Q1 and Q2 magnets - design is finished
- Girder (corrector_quad_BPM) - design is finished
- Summer Installation
- Turn off BOPs, Moller crates, unplug Moller target motors (will ask Jack)
- All Moller magnets water cooling test (at high field)
- Do not install Moller detector into the new shielding box
- New quad field mapping is highly desired
- Any (many) pictures of the dipole and shielding insertion will be highly appreciated
-
Future Plans
- High Field Target:
- New field mapper design
- Installation
- Field mapping + power supply commissioning
- Target bench (target now is sitting +3mm upper of the beam line center)
- Alignment
- The aperture detector upgrade + detector installation
- Moller settings function for MCC (0.8 - 11 GeV)
- Upgrade MCC Moller procedure
- New cryoline for the Moller target
- GEANT for the target alignment test with beam and new BPM
- Old DAQ upgrade
- FADC data triggers analysis
- GEANT vs. measurement quads shift discrepancy
