Information for Expert Shift Workers

Below is a checklist of responsibilities for g2p student shift workers.

Here is the expert shift schedule

Student shift run sheets

Blank run sheets

Run Information

  • CHECK THAT 3rd SHIFT WORKER IS FILLING OUT RUN SHEETS FOR EVERY RUN!
  • Monitor deadtime, check that prescale values are appropriate
  • Monitor edtm scalers
  • Check that correct CODA configuration is being used
    • LHRS: LHRS
    • RHRS: RHRS
  • Check HRS and septum currents for consistency.
  • Check BPM Strip chart for stable beam positions (BPMs are locked by MCC)

Beamline

  • Check beam charge asymmetry
    • Check beam charge asymmetry for one run every 3~4 hours: type "asym L" or "asym R" or "asym TA" in adaq account, halog the result!
    • Check charge asymmetry strip chart
  • check BPM: type "spot++" or "spot_L" or "spot_R" in adaq account
  • Monitor bleedthrough current

Target

  • Monitor target polarization
    • Check that TO is actively adjusting nmr to maximize polarization.
    • Check that target is moved to 2nd cup/annealed when polarization drops too low

Replay

  • Do full replay for every run (front room will only replay 20,000 events)
  • Check that all ROCs are getting gates

Third Arm

  • Check the start-of-run and end-of-run information in the halog. If they are not right, stop the run and restart CODA.
  • Do full replay for every run
