Spectrometer Optics 2pass 48p8d

Procedure without Sieve-slit

• Time estimate: 1 hour

* Take a run at the following kinematics without the sieve-slit collimator.
* Start with initial right HRS spectrometer tune with the SOS quad in place of right Q1.
* If you need to increase the spectrometer momentum setting, make sure you cycle Q2 and Q3 as per the cycling procedure.
* Electron rates assume 5 carbon foils or 2 Al dummy foils, 5 mSr acceptance, and 8% delta acceptance.
* A GMp expert will check the data quality and decide, if the right HRS tune needs to be adjusted to change the size of the acceptance.
* This process will be repeated until the spectrometer tune is satisfactory.

Procedure with Sieve-slit

• Time estimate: 10 hours

* Trained personnel will be required to install the 1-inch tungsten sieve-slit collimator onto the front face of the HRS.
* Take a sieve slit run with the multi-foil carbon target for the inelastic kinematics in the table.
* If you need to increase the spectrometer momentum setting, make sure you cycle Q2 and Q3 as per the cycling procedure.
* Repeat the above with the beam position shifted so that you see a vertical shift by one row.
* Electron rates assume 5 carbon foils, only 37 out of 155 sieve holes per foil have events (~ 0.4 mSr acceptance), and 8% delta acceptance.
* Electron rates assume 2 aluminum foils, only 43 out of 155 sieve holes per foil have events (~ 0.47 mSr acceptance), and 8% delta acceptance.

Delta Scan with Proton Elastic

• Time estimate: 3-4 hours

* Trained personnel will be required to remove the 1-inch lead sieve-slit collimator onto the front face of the HRS.
* Take a run with the 15 cm liquid hydrogen target for the elastic kinematics in the table.
* There will be a time lapse between settings until the right dipole reaches the desired momentum and is stable.
* If you need to increase the spectrometer momentum setting, make sure you cycle Q2 and Q3 as per the cycling procedure.
* Rate estimates only include elastic electrons and does not include inelastic rate or rate from the target endcaps. 
* The Q2 for these settings is 1.65 GeV2.

For ΔP = -4%, we want the following Q1 currents:

1. -5%: 247.6764 A
2. -4%: 250.2835 A
3. +5%: 273.7476 A

For ΔP = -2%, we want the following Q1 currents:

1. -5%: 243.0224 A
2. -4%: 245.5805 A
3. +5%: 268.6037 A

For ΔP = 0%, we want the following Q1 currents:

1. -5%: 238.1660 A
2. -4%: 240.6730 A
3. +5%: 263.2361 A

For ΔP = +2%, we want the following Q1 currents:

1. -5%: 233.5119 A
2. -4%: 235.9699 A
3. +5%: 258.0921 A

For ΔP = +4%, we want the following Q1 currents:

Hall A Gmp Luminosity Scan

Set Left HRS to P = 1.0 GeV, θ= 25, 2mmx2mm raster. Take 10 minute runs with the targets and beam currents listed below. Set prescale factor to keep livetimes approximately constant for each current with a given target.

Hydrogen Scan	10μA	15μA	20μA	25μA	30μA	35μA	40μA
Run No.

Carbon Scan	10μA	15μA	20μA	25μA	30μA	35μA	40μA
Run No.

Dummy Scan	20μA	25μA	30μA	35μA	40μA

Proton Elastic Run and Dummy Target Runs

• Go back to the ΔP = 0% elastic setting. Make sure the L-HRS P0 = 1.177 GeV and Q1 current = 240.6730 A (-4%)
• Take data with this setting for 1 hour

Ebeam (GeV)	k' (GeV)	θe (deg)	ΔP (%)	Rate [Hz] at 20 μA	minutes for 1M events at 20 μA
2.057	1.177	48.74	0	339	~ 60 mins

• Move the target to "Dummy"
• Take L-HRS run with same setting as previous step. We need at least 200 K events.
