Subject: Run 11 - beam on target overlap 

14:30

Run 11 started. D+ beam in the ring at 1.5 MeV.

No target at the moment. Valves to the interaction chamber will soon be opened.

Stats and histograms zero'd, monitoring code reset.

All checks and temps OK

Leakage currents OK

ADC data items statistics - attachment 1

Beam in ring ~30s and manipulation ~2s

Beam intensity ~ 5.7E7

 

16:40

System check OK

Temperature OK

Statistics same as before

Merger and server OK

Leakage currents OK

Beam in the ring

Waiting for target , Hydrogen green

 

18:50

System OK

Temperature OK

Statistics same as before

Merger and server OK

Leakage currents OK

Beam ~4x10^7

Target tuning ongoing

 

22:05

System OK

Temperature OK

Statistics same as before

Merger and server OK

Leakage currents OK

Currently no beam -> asked operator to check source

Target tuning ongoing

 

23:22

System OK

Temperature OK

Statistics same as before

Merger and server OK

Leakage currents OK

Currently no beam -> operators are optimizing the intensity of the beam

Optimizing target density as well

 

00:55

The overlaping test started by moving the beam only in the y axis.

 

02:00

Overlap test is over and was found that the optimal position for the horizontal axis is 8mm. Beam on target.

Observation of an increase the 1.5 MeV peak in the CARME monitoring code when overlap with the target is found. Attachment 4.

Drop in the beam lifetime is also observed when overlapped with the target.

System OK

Temperature OK

Statistics same as before

Merger and server OK

Leakage currents OK

 

02:48

CRYRING measurement cycle has been made shorter (from 5 to 3 repetitions) to match it with the decreased beam life time due to optimed overlap with target.

 

04:37

System OK

Temperature OK

Statistics same as before

Merger and server OK

Leakage currents OK
