Procedure without Sieve-slit

  • Kinematics need to be updated!
  • Time estimate: 1-2 hours
* Take a run at the following kinematics without the sieve-slit collimator.
* Start with initial HRS spectrometer tunes for the left and right arms with the new quads in place of Q1s.
* If you need to increase the spectrometer momentum setting, make sure you cycle Q2 and Q3 as per the cycling procedure.
* Electron rates assume 9 carbon foils, 5 mSr acceptance, and 8% delta acceptance.
* A GMp expert will check the data quality and decide, if the HRS tunes need to be adjusted to change the size of the acceptance.
* This process will be repeated until the spectrometer tune is satisfactory.
  • Right-HRS Kinematics: 1st Pass (Ebeam = 2.2 GeV)
Ebeam [GeV] P0 [GeV/c] θe [deg] Q2 [GeV2] W [GeV] Rate [Hz] at 20 μA minutes for 71k events at 20 μA
2.217 0.85 48.75 1.28 1.47 119 10

We want to take runs with the following Q1 currents:

  1. 0%: 173.825 A
  2. -10%: 156.443 A
  3. -5%: 165.134 A
  4. -2%: 170.349 A
  5. +2%: 177.302 A
  6. +5%: 182.516 A
  7. +10%: 191.208 A
  • Left-HRS Kinematics: 1st Pass (Ebeam = 2.2 GeV)
Ebeam [GeV] P0 [GeV/c] θe [deg] Q2 [GeV2] W [GeV] Rate [Hz] at 20 μA minutes for 2M events at 20 μA
2.217 1.0 17.5 0.20 1.72 9800 (3260 Hz with ps = 3) 10

We want to take runs with the following Q1 currents:

  1. 0%: 204.5 A
  2. -10%: 184.05 A
  3. -5%: 194.275 A
  4. -2%: 200.41 A
  5. +2%: 208.59 A
  6. +5%: 214.725 A
  7. +10%: 224.95 A
