Revision as of 14:06, 16 September 2014
For the 12 GeV DVCS experiment, go to [DVCS3 wiki ].
Assume:
- longitudinally polarized beam
- max 20 uA but for short times when it can go higher
- 7.3 GeV-4 pass and 5.5GeV-3Pass and possibly 9.10 GeV-5Pass later on

Commissioning/ Calibration
Beam instruments
BPM/Raster checks/Beam centering
- Send unrastered beam to the four corners of a 2*2 mm square around assumed (0,0) position (as defined by RAD reading in beam dump). At each position compare harps against BPMs reading.
- JR: How to decide on beam centering beyond the RAD readings in the beam dump? Do we need to even go further than that?
- Check size raster using the spot++ tool. Pending target boiling studies result, we will use a 2*2 mm2 raster. (3*3??)
BCMs
Use the procedure that is under .....
Need: To insure that minimal beam lost in the machine can be measured, beam that would go up to about 100 uA. We also need to be the only hall receiving beam.
JR: Do we want to calibrate against the Unser monitor? Is the Unser operational? Do we know its calibration constant
Polarization measurement
Goal : ΔP/P~2%
We have to be mindful of the issue of the intrinsic polarization and the issue of its direction.
JR: How often do we want to measure the polarization?
For this fall:
At this time, we are hoping to be able to use the Compton only as a beam quality monitor (pending there is actually a photon detector in place). We could use the Mott polarimeter as a monitor of the intrinsic polarization and something in the Hall as a quick check of the direction of the polarization.
Energy measurement
Goal: Δ E/E ~ 0.5 %
Luminosity
Target Boiling
Check that the Carbon target doesn't boil. In similar conditions check if th hydrogen target does boil.
Deadtime check
The plan is to have multiple trigger that would let us check the deadtime. The cabling of these is yet to be defined.
HRS
Measure efficiencies S2m, Cerenkov and wire chamber
The DVCS trigger module can be triggered on any-two combination of s0, s1, s2 and the cerenkov. We should use this capability to measure the efficiency of the s2 and the cerenkov. We should double the study with using the MLU from the HRS.
Optics
The resolution of the calorimeter (about 3.5% in energy and 2mrad in angles) dominates the resolution of our experiment. So our optics needs are quite limited. In a first attempt we believe that it will be sufficient for our purpose to check that the target foils are reconstructed with about sigma=1.2mm/sin(spectro angle). We might also want to measure an elastic point detecting electrons in the HRS and no detection in the calorimeter.
Calorimeter
DC readings
ARS calibration
For this we need to switch the HRS polarity to positive to detect proton in the HRS and electrons in the calorimeter
