        Note: Right arm thresholds are determined using June 09 RHRS test run results (run #22524 on 6/16, p0=-2.63 GeV/c, Eb=6.064GeV): high -105mV, medium -20mV, low -15mV.  ADC channel cuts are roughly: 1) in TS high cut: 2000*TScut(in mV)/90 on SH, and 1000*TScut(in mV)/90 in PS; 2) in PS: 350*PScut(in mV)/20; For other settings, scale each by the momentum.  For low threshold (pions), may need -20mV or higher.

In PAC days:

Total DIS, 5-pass: 580+5 hours on LD2, 10 hours on Al dummy.
Total resonance, 5-pass: 12 hours on LD2.
Total resonance, 4-pass: 54 hours on LD2.

The following are in calendar days or hours:

Total 46 days (excluding commissioning):

Total DIS, 5-pass: 967+8.3 hours on LD2, 16.7 hours on Al dummy.
Total resonance, 5-pass: 20 hours on LD2.
Total resonance, 4-pass: 90 hours on LD2.


Production Plan:
  1. Start with #1 on the left, #2 on the right. 
  2. After #1 is finished (approximately 19 days), take #2 on both arms until 5 days towards beam down). 
  3. Then, take 20 hours at #7 on left arm. 
  4. Pass change to 4.8 GeV, assuming 8 hours.
  5. Spend the rest on resonance running #3, #4, #5, #6. Starting with #3 and #4 on the left and #5 and #6 on the right, then switch left arm also to #5 and #6.
