</style>Hi BTeamers,<br>
<br>
Here are the notes from last Thursday's meeting. Note that the next
BTeam meeting will<br>
be tomorrow, 18 Oct, 11:00-12:00. Per one of these TODO items,
please send me items<br>
that you deem to be important to study during the upcoming year and
whether they are<br>
primarily to benefit the 6 GeV program or 12 GeV recommissioning.
Cheers!<br>
<br>
-Todd<br>

<ul>
<li>The <a

restoration calendar</a> is linked from the <a
href="https://devweb.acc.jlab.org/twiki/bin/view/BTeam/6MSadFiles">BTeam
wiki</a><br>
<ul>
<li>Restoration calendar color coding: green is access, red
is power/beam permit<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Send relevant ATLis items for linkage to Arne; he will post
instructions later<br>
<ul>
<li>Please update/create <a

items</a> for planned CASA support/BTeam beam items<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We are on schedule and some things going well – the plan is
being realized!<br>
</li>
<li>We expect to send beam to the 45 MeV dump this weekend for
injector setup<br>
</li>
<li>System checkout will start for real the week of 17 Oct<br>
</li>
<li>There is a real possibility of spinning up beam through
CEBAF weekend of 22 Oct<br>
<ul>
<li>Will discuss early week if/who optics support is needed
that weekend<br>
</li>
<li><span class="todo">TODO</span> Yves/Vasily may be
interested in 45 MeV decoupling 19-21 Oct swing/owl<br>

<li>Randy Michaud becomes PD Mon AM 17 Oct<br>
<ul>
<li>White board becomes "official" daily calendar: Randy
will update from restoration calendar<br>
</li>
<li>Mon AM 17 Oct 07:45/08:00 meetings transition to ops
daily meetings<br>
</li>
</ul>

<li>Weekly status meetings will start just before start of
physics<br>

meeting until then<br>

<h2 id="sec-3">2 BTeam wiki/web page</h2>
<ul>
<li>The <a
href="https://devweb.acc.jlab.org/twiki/bin/view/BTeam/WebHome">BTeam
Wiki</a> has been resurrected (using the devweb <a
href="https://devweb.acc.jlab.org/twiki/bin/view">Twiki</a>).<br>
<ul>
<li>Todd is the primary keeper: see him if you want write
access<br>
</li>
<li>The wiki will hold dynamic links and procedures, action
items, collaborative work areas<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>There is a new <a
href="http://www.jlab.org/accel/bteam/bteam.html">BTeam web
page</a><br>
<ul>
<li>Mike McCaughan is the primary keeper: see him if you
want write access<br>
</li>
<li>Mike will be sending out a request for comments to the
BTeam list soon<br>
</li>
<li>The web page will hold relatively static information
(e.g. searchable meeting minutes)<br>
</li>
<li>Mike is also migrating old BTeam minutes to the web page<br>

<h2 id="sec-4">3 BTeam meeting schedule</h2>
<ul>
<li>BTeam meetings will take place Tues 11:00 starting 18 Oct in
the MCC meeting room<br>
</li>
<li>Moved earlier than Wed 13:30 weekly status meeting to
provide input to that meeting<br>

<h2 id="sec-5">4 Beam study scheduling</h2>
<ul>
<li>Experiment schedule is very aggressive for this year,
particularly QWeak<br>
<ul>
<li>Need over 75% total efficiency to accomplish physics
program goals<br>
</li>
<li>We should optimize our beam studies, e.g. one 12h
session/week to minimize end effects<br>
</li>
<li>Be honest about accounting: do beam studies on study
time, tuning on scheduled tune time<br>
<ul>
<li>This will improve realism of our statistics<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We will likely shift to having beam studies 1/wk rather than
2/wk<br>
</li>
<li>Will also involve optics on call to have strong role in
study restoration<br>
<ul>
<li><span class="todo">TODO</span> Complete document to make
Optics On Call role recommendations (Todd/Alicia/MikeMc)<br>
</li>
<li><span class="todo">TODO</span> Develop a post-studies
restoration checklist, including projected high current<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Will gather, document, and prioritize beam studies for this
run<br>
<ul>
<li>There are objectives both for this run and to prepare
for 12 GeV recommissioning<br>
</li>
<li><span class="todo">TODO</span> Make list of beam physics
campaigns that are critical path for this run

physics, beam studies<br>
</li>
<li>CASA are also providing operations support for various
projects during startup<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Optics On Call will have a stronger role in weekly beam
study restoration<br>
