Summary of Optics Plan
Define the following jobs: A. Acceptance calibration, sieve out, rasters on and off (large C12, no LHe) B. Delta scan, (sieve in, C12, no LHe) C. Beam position scan (Sieve in, large C12, no LHe, 8 points on x,y axis and 4 additional points at corner) D. Pointing (Sieve in, CH2, need to refill LHe)
1. 0T @ 2.257:
Do A, move sieve in, do B and C(12 points), refill LHe do D. At the end take elastic NH3 data to check NH3 thickness. When finish: move sieve out; Ramp field up to 2.5T; Drain LHe
2. 2.5T, 90deg @ 2.257:
Do A, move sieve in, do B and C(12 points), refill LHe do D. When finish: Ramp field up to 2.5T; Drain LHe out
3. 5.01T, 6deg @ 2.257:
Do B and C(8 points), refill LHe do D.
4. 2.5T, 90deg @ 1.706:
Do A, move sieve in, do B and C(8 points), refill LHe do D. When finish: Rotate target field to 6 deg; Ramp up to 5.01T; Darin LHe out
5. 5.01T, 6deg @ 1.706 GeV:
Here is the optics plan for gep at 1.706 GeV: P0=1.691 Sieve IN: target config number of events or beam time C12 Sieve IN, No rasters 2 x 1M (10 minutes) C12 Sieve IN, Both rasters 2 x 1M (10 min) NH3 Sieve IN, Both rasters 3 x 7M (about 1 hours, which will give about 400 events when cut to 1x1 beam size) **Escorted access to move sieve out (30 min) C12 Sieve out, both rasters 30 minutes(about 10 M events for each arm, good for dilution) In total 2.5 ABU, 3 hours were allocated.
6. 5.01T, 90deg @ 2.257:
Do A, move sieve in, do B and C(8 points), refill LHe do D. When finish: Turn off target field; Drain LHe, move sieve out.
7. 5T 0deg @ 2.254 GeV:
Here is the optics plan for 2.254GeV with 5T and 0 deg target field. Before doing optics, beam center and slow raster size have to be determined.
0. With LHe in, C12, sieve in , no raster 2 runs (2Mx2) (double statistics)
Drain out LHe, LHRS starts at 0% and right HRS start at 4%: 1. Delta scan: C12, sieve in , no raster (3 hours) Left HRS: -4%, -3%, -2%, -1%, 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% Right HRS: 4% (Right septum I<=920A, so can only go to 4%.) (-4%, -1% and +3% can be ignored if running out of time) NOTE: if possible, do 3% for right arm, which is 930A.
Left HRS: move target to CH2, do pointing at -2%, 0%, 2% (2Mx2 for each setting) **Ramp left dipoles back to 0% when finish. (10 minutes) 2. Beam position scan: C12, delta=0; sieve in, slow raster only, (40 minutes) Config the slow raster to jump in the following way: 1)between (x=-5, y=-5) and (5,5) 2)between x=0, y=+/-5 3)between x=+/-5, y=0 3. Acceptance calibration, part 1: C12, sieve in, delta=0 (10 minutes) 1) both rasters on 4. (done with delta scan, 3 points)Pointing: CH2, sieve in ,delta=0, no rasters (30 minutes) Take data till the H peak of a normal sieve hole can be fit. **Escorted access to move sieve out when finish (30 minutes) 5. Acceptance calibration, part2: C12, sieve out, delta=0 (20 minutes) 1) no rasters Move to CH2 to do a run for pointing cross check 2) both rasters Estimated time: 6 hours At the end of the optics, refill LHe, change to the 1st production point, start dilution runs then polarize NH3 target.
8. 2.5T, 90deg @ 1.159:
Do A, move sieve in, do B and C(8 points), refill LHe do D. When finish: Ramp field up to 5.01T; Drain LHe out Here is the optics plan for 1.1GeV with 2.5T at 90 degrees target field. Before doing optics, beam center and slow raster size have to be determined. No LHe, LHRS starts at -4% and right HRS start at -3.5%: 1. Delta scan: C12, sieve in , no raster (4 hours) Left HRS: -4%, -3%, -2%, -1%, 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% Right HRS: -3.5% -2%, 0%, 2%, 3.5% NOTE: if running out of time, we will skip 3.5% in right arm and 1%, 3% at left arm. This can save about 1 hours. **Ramp dipoles back to 0% when finish. (40 minutes) 2. Beam position scan: C12, delta=0; sieve in, slow raster only, (40 minutes) Config the slow raster to jump in the following way: 1)between (x=-5, y=-5) and (5,5) 2)between x=0, y=+/-5 3)between x=+/-5, y=0 3. Acceptance calibration, part 1: C12, sieve in, delta=0 (10 minutes) 1) both rasters on 4. Pointing: CH2, sieve in ,delta=0, no rasters (30 minutes) Take data till the H peak of a normal sieve hole can be fit. **Escorted access to move sieve out when finish (30 minutes) 5. Acceptance calibration, part2: C12, sieve out, delta=0 (20 minutes) 1) no rasters 2) both rasters Estimated time: 7 hours At the end of the optics, refill LHe, change to the 1st production point, start dilution runs then polarize NH3 target.
