Latest revision as of 16:13, 23 January 2020
- Once the target cool down started and D. Meekins gives "Go", start ramping up HRS magnets
- Start with all detector HVs off
- Start a new fresh slug for the production to separate the data from the previous target
Beam Restoration
- Do injector match check before restoring the beam
- Target at Home position
- Establish tune beam and low current CW beam in the hall (straight through, empty target)
- Design match to hall expected as part of original configuration
- Verify spot size at the target from harp trace
- Once the low current beam is established, check target alignment Before the ion chamber calibration
- -> Go to Low current checkout #1
- May have new target lock positions from the target alignment check
- Establish 30uA to dump, ion chamber calibrations to 30uA on Ca40, Carbon, Ca48.
- Establish high current beam to dump with Carbon 1%
- Ramp current in steps to 150uA on Ca40, check if the trip point makes sense
- this involves target burn-off
- If Yves is available, tune beam through Compton chicane
- Do PQB check when we have beam in the hall
Low current checkout
Bob, Chandan, Devi, Silviu,
1. Target verification and raster check:
- Verify cold target positions and raster size
- Carbon hole, 1-2uA, 4x4 raster, turn ON S0 HVs
- Take spot runs, verify the hole and 2x2 raster size (Carbon hole radius :2mm)
- Compare with the previous C-hole center position.
- If don't find the carbon hole, adjust BPM positions and raster size
- Move to Ca40, 4x4 raster, find the target center position (move beam to see the edge and estimate the center). Log it.
- Center beam to colimator center, 2x2 raster, verify nothing hitting edges, uniform distribution from spot runs
- Move to Ca48, 4x4 raster, find the target center position. Log it.
- Center beam to collimator center, 2x2 raster, verify nothing hitting edges, uniform distributions from spot runs
- Adjust the target ladder to match the horizontal center to the collimator center (consult with Silviu, need to update encorder table before any further target movement)
- Provide the target positions to Yves, establish the new target lock positions if needed
2. Detector alignment check: Devi, Ryan
- US and DS detectors to counting mode (done)
3. Q2 measurement:
- Check magnet setting is right
- Make sure VDC HVs OFF
- Beam centered at collimator (if there is new target lock position use that), 2x2 raster
- Ask <1uA, adjust current to have S0 trigger rate ~100kHz to turn on VDC HVs
- Take 3M events
- Take escorted access to switch the detector mode before going to high current checkout
- Turn off all HVs, make sure to adjust the quartz HVs for integrating mode
High current checkout
1. Low current BMW safety check: Ye (Victorian if it happens during owl)
- 10-15uA
2. Target burn-off: Shifter, Cameron (Silviu)
During this procedure,
- Verify the data while taking each run
- Check if the ion chamber trip point is sensible
- Monitor the target!
- Insert Ca40 target
- 2x2 raster, run in steps of 30uA (each step for 1h)
- Monitor detector yields and asym width
- Insert Ca48 target
- 2x2 raster, run in steps of 30uA (each step for 1h)
- Monitor detector yields and asym width
