This is the check list for experts on transversity data checker shift.

Notice : Please add items of your specialty field, so every one will do the check

Beamline, beam charge, beam polarization, Luminosity monitors

  1. Intrinsic beam size. Harp scan once in a week.
  2. Happex charge feed back is On ?
  3. Beam charge asymmetry is below 100 ppm ? (Check end-of-run, and run Happex replay)
  4. Lumi signals and replay OK ?, no saturation ?.
  5. Beam charge at end-of-run make sense ?

Run information

  1. Check scaler rate screen, pre-scale factors agree with earlier runs.
  2. Check online CODA rate and CODA dead time. (Run scaler script, verify deadtime)
  3. Check start-of-run input. Target type, beam half wave plate, etc.
  4. Happex run start ahead of transversity run ? (Happex run ends every four hours or so ?)
  5. Look at shift worker's run-sheet records.
  6. Confirm CODA not crashed, check DAQ-configuration: twoarm_RICH.
  7. Check Halog entries.
  8. Check if spin-flip is ON. Check target polarization history.
  9. Check all HV on. BB chamber HV on before run starts.

Replay

Run show_all(<run number>) script after shift worker finish a replay. It will pop up a set of plots for expert, which would take ~10min to check through.

A list of minimum check items : (Item / related online plots)

  1. Check left-HRS VDC efficiency / online("detectorL",run#)
  2. Check BB chamber wire map / online("detectorBB",run#)
  3. Check BB shower vs preshower ADC plot, threshold not changed / online("physics",run#)
  4. Check scaler consistency / online("scalar",run#)
  5. Spot++, BPM A and B (x,) positions / online("detectorL",run#)

A list of known problems / possible bad runs

  1. BB chamber HV not on all the time.
  2. Left-arm VDC gas problem, low efficiency.
