    1 2009-08-04 Tue 07:22 Updated startup schedule

Reminder there will not be a BTeam meeting this week. We will meet next 
week. At Steve's Monday 1:30 meeting the remaining SAD work was 
discussed. There are a few tasks that have an impact on Beam activities, 
specifically C50-9 installation. As such here is the new schedule.

    * Startup items
          o C50-9 work implies the NL will be in restricted access
            during weekdays up to Aug 13th. This will constrained the
            Inj work to either 500keV or Swing/Owl shifts.
          o Make sure Yves has enough time to perform measurements,
            analysis and configuration changes.
          o Tief needs a shift of RF on (no beam) to move the MO around
            to examine the range of the tuners (12 GeV test)
          o Emax's need to be determined for NL05, NL10, SL17, SL18
          o NL05, NL10, SL17 & SL18 need to have parasitic Q
            measurements performed once Emax's have been determined and
            RF is stable.
          o Once tune beam is in the BSY, BSY harps need to be checked
          o tune beam to BSY, and BSY harps work: Perform BSY ?, TWISS
            measurements and matching

    2 2009-07-29 Wed Agenda--Notes

    * Close out of the Summer Sad
          o Gun status SOURCE
                + Inverted gun is producing electrons!!!
                + Conditioned to 110kV without any problems
                + Presently operating at 100kV
                + Preliminary lifetime of 70C!!!!
                + Preliminary injector setup by Reza -- found bumps in
                  0L04 and 0R03? regions. These are not new, but what is
                  the cause? Some of these bumps are 4mm!
          o HKS status Spata
            Mike is at the beach for the remainder of the week. HKS
            installation is nearing the end. Lots of work on the
            diagnostics, final hookups and checkout. Should be able to
            complete the work as per the schedule.
          o Hardware Status Lauze
            Ron is also on vacation.

                  start machine setup.
          o Machine Restoration All
                + Other items
                      # Before beam is restored, but after EES has RF
                        up, Tief needs an eight period to perform some
                        studies on how far the Master Oscillator can be
                        changed and keep the cavities under control.
                + 7.5% unbalanced
                  A discussion as to the best approach to get to the
                  desired setup of 5.76 GeV with a 7.5% unbalanced
                  configuration.
                      # Plan A
                            * JB has created a high energy MST file from
                              the 6.07 GeV test in June.
                            * Use this file to scale to 5.76 GeV, balanced.
                            * Spin up 5.76 balanced and check out systems
                            * Go unbalanced from here
                      # Plan B
                            * Restore 5.97 GeV configuration from June09
                            * Check out the hardware
                            * Scale down to the 5.76 GeV 7.5% unbalance
                              configuration
                      # Decision
                        Plan B
                + Strawman, all dates tentative
                      # 2009-08-10 Mon RECO starts (the SAD calendar has
                        Aug-12, but it should start earlier so that it
                        is completed by Friday.
                      # 2009-08-10 Mon OPS 24-7

                        Yan with assistance from Jay and everyone else
                        will construct the startup plan (plan B).
                      # Q measurements
                        Some zones were cycled during the down. These
                        zones should have Q measurements performed
                        during the week 2009-08-10 Mon-- 2009-08-14 Fri
                      # C50-9 commissioning
                        Time for C50-9 to start commissioning should be
                        carved out if restoration goes smoothly and the
                        halls are late.
                      # Optics on Call
                        JB will has populated the schedule. Please
                        confirm that you are available during the week
                        assigned.
                      # No meeting next week.
