Back to [Winter2016 DVCS run plan]


Need to remove the plastic shield.
Calorimeter-Target distance =6.2m
LH2 target, unrastered beam (which means beam current at less than 5 uA).
LHRS in positive polarity.
Open LHRS collimator
DAQ: DVCS config, trigger is S0+S2, autovalidation.
angleLHRS= 38.04 [deg]
momentum LHRS= 2.127 GeV
beam energy= 4.5 GeV

We will take about 1 hour beam with three calorimeter angles: 26.5, 25 and 23.5 deg.

We are going to move the calorimeter and leave the HRS fixed but we could have done the contrary (see table below).
