    keyword=Shift Summary

    Continuing with Q2 = 45 fm-2, He3 running

    Raster change: 25% increase in x direction and 20% decrease in y direction to match raster running conditions of previous Forward kinematic runs. (New raster size starts with run 3461)

    17:10 MCC informs us that dump ion chamber limits permit us now to run at higher current (we were running at ~ 85 uA). Requested 105 uA.

    18:00 MCC: beam off for approx 15-30 min for beam dispersion measurent for hall B.
    18:20 beam back
    18:50 MCC cannot give more current than 100 uA. Gun is beginning to
    lose efficiency. They may have to do a spot change.
    20:37 MCC takes beam away to fix frequent beam trip problem
    20:46 beam back

    Smooth running for the majority of this shift
