Friday, November 14: SWING Shift

Go back to Daily Run Plan Daily Run Plans

• General considerations
  • Rakitha Beminiwattha is the current Run Coordinator. Please contact me directly via RC phone 757-876-1787
  • Follow the generic Instructions for shift takers
  • Shift leaders: Please make sure to fill out the beam time accounting form and write a "Shift Summary" log entry at the end of your shift
  • In general, technical staff should not be contacted by the shift crew - please call the RC first.
  • If the run plan calls for some significant period of beam at 10 uA or greater please call Mahmoud Ahmad, who would like to perform a parasitic beam diagnostic test (no impact to us). His contact information will be written on the white board in the Counting House.

• Instructions for this shift
  • The hall may be in Restricted Access at the beginning of shift. Once the target cooldown and other work in the hall is complete, we will return to Beam Permit.
  • The first task will be completion of the Dump Ion Calibration test plan (this is driven by MCC).
  • After completion of the Dump Ion Chamber Test plan, execute steps following steps of the "Beamline" run plan here.
    • Initial BPM/Raster checks/Beam centering
    • BPM Calibrations (Bullseye Scan) [1-2 hours]
    • Superharp Scan with Raster off/on
    • Note that we will NOT be going through the Compton chicane.
  • If time remains, start spectrometer checkout and begin looking for HRS-calorimeter coincidences. For this part of the plan - contact Carlos (contact info on the white board). The calorimeter HV will need to be turned on and put in the correct position - this will be done by Carlos or his assigned substitute.
  • Kinematics, DVCS Kin1: Ebeam = 7.3 GeV, PLHRS=2.71 GeV Theta_HRS=22.83 Theta_calo=12.35
  • Make sure to use the DVCS configuration for all runs.
