Absolute best-case scenario:

• Monday 09-27-2010: DAY shift
  • start cooling magnets
• Monday 09-27-2010: SWING (or late-Day)
  • lockup
  • hot checkout (MCC)
  • start threading beam to the Hall
• Tuesday 09-28-2010: OWL
  • start commissioning

Beam without any cryo and no target

We will start with a 5 passes beam.

1. Getting beam threaded down to the dump for the first time
2. Beam quality optimization study

Goal: optimize beam quality to limit noise in calorimeter

Need: working Compton photon detector with appropriate HV and threshold settings, working Compton DAQ that can provide scaler data to the appropriate EPICS channel (contact: Eric Fuchey for Compton, Jay, MCC support for beam manipulation)

1. BCM calibration

Goal: calibrate BCM readings between 0 and 20 uA, with special care to readings between 2 and 7 uA
Need: to follow MCC procedure (MCC-PR-04-008), Hall DAQ working with some random counts (check conditions) Contact: J. Roche

1. BPM calibration

Goal: check response of the BPMs to know motion of the beam Need: Harps working
