Before we use the Left HRS to commission HCAL, we need to spend some time checking the HRS itself.
 
Most checks of detector and the DAQ can be done with cosmics or with pulsers, but the two topics
 
where we need beam are:  1) Check the HV on the Cherenkov detectors (particles need to go in the right
 
direction, and 2) Check the magnetic optics (we can start with an optics database from the Tritium era.
 
 
Initially we'll have the HRS at about 90 degrees. We can run with beam and check detectors and look
 
at reconstructed angles at the target.  We can do this parasitically or late at night when nobody
 
is in the hall. (We need the beam on target.).  For the reconstructed angles, all is well if the
 
acceptance looks about right (a familiar rectangle) and we can compare to Monte Carlo.  Later, when
 
we remove Bigbite, we can put in the sieve slits and check more carefully the optics.  If the optics
 
are really bad (blurry hole pattern) we can do an optics calibration run plan.  However, I doubt that
 
this is necessary.

4.4 GeV is not very practical.
 
Note, the sieve slit will cut the rate by a factor of 200.

The Left HRS will be used during the SBS era for calibrating HCAL and possibly for a hypernuclear experiment. Here's a talk about it: http://userweb.jlab.org/~rom/LHRS_BobM_17May21.pdf
