=== Regular Trainings: ===
 
 
The trainings that we need are:
 
* SAF110T - Tritium Training
 
* SAF116kd - Physics Division Work Governance
 
* SAF103 - ODH Training (Short quiz at the end)
 
* SAF100 - EH&S Orientation
 
* SAF801 - Radiation Worker Training
 
** If you do it for the first time you need to do a quiz at a JLab computer and a practical test. Afterwards you get your personal dosimeter
 
** If you renew your Radiation Worker training you only need to do the quiz.
 
* SAF110 - After you did all of the above you need the Hall A walkthrough.

The SRC Tritium Experiment (E12-14-011) is an (e,e'p) experiment in Hall A, comparing the momentum distribution of protons in tritium and helium-3. These nuclei have a large proton-neutron asymmetry, but are also isospin-mirror nuclei, meaning that the proton distribution in tritium can tell us about the neutron distribution in helium-3.

During the experiment

The information that was more relevant for activities during the data-taking period will be moved from this page to the following new page:

Other information

Kinematics LHRS momentum [GeV] LHRS angle [deg] RHRS momentum [GeV] RHRS angle [deg]
Fast 3.543 20.88 1.4805 48.80
Slow 3.543 20.88 1.246 58.50
Parallel (Hydrogen) 3.543 17.80 1.4805 48.80
  • BCM calibration
    • run number: 100172
    • target: carbon foil
    • currents and attenuator values:
      • 3uA ---> 140
      • 7uA ---> 163
      • 12uA ---> 184
      • 18uA ---> 204
      • 22.2uA ---> 214
    • These are nominal values for the beam current. Gotta get the actual values from epics info.
    • See example in the halog, entry number: 3505501
  • Unser calibration
    • run number: 100451
    • target: dummy
    • current values: 0,2,0,3,0,5,0,10,0,25,0,40,0,60,0,80,0,90,0,100,0,2,0,3,0,5,0,10,0 uA
    • Ideally we would have completed two full cycles from 0 to 100 uA, but the beam came back and we decided to go back to production.
    • See example in the halog, entry number: 3499263
