Revision as of 15:46, 6 October 2014

For the Fall of 2014 assume:

  • max 20 uA but for short times it can go higher for boiling studies and BCM calibration.
  • 7.3 GeV @ 4 pass, 5.5GeV @ 3 Pass and 3.7 GeV @ 2 pass. No five pass beam in the Fall of 2014.

Pre-beam Checklist

Trigger Checkout (Experts)

* Checkout trigger timing
* Checkout of EDTM (Barak Schmookler)
* Think about adding 60, 100, 150, and 200 ns wide electronic deadtime scalers.
  This has been found to be a robust method for determining electronic deadtime in Hall C and we should think about adding something similar for GMP.
