Shifts
All set for this week
Run plan when MCC sends beam back
- Follow beam restoration procedure to the Hall
- Short run plan
* 10uA beam until next decision to go to a higher beam current (15 uA)
- For higher current up to 50 uA, MCC needs to be notified a few days early
Beam Restoration Procedure
- Use new "cross target" (1x1 mm "+" shape) for beam restoration as described in https://sbs.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/HOW_TOs#Beam_Recovery_Procedure_for_GEp
Beam requirements
- start off at 5 pass beam
- intrinsic beam size (at target): 150–500 µm (<600 µ m is also acceptable)
- raster size: 2 mm X 2 mm
- During kin#3 SBS magnet will be at 1762.23 Amp, the corrector magnets at -80A for all.
- production run @ 5-10 µA for now
- For later
- production beam current : 50 µA
