Hi All,<br>
<br>
We plan on having an NMR probe (actually 2). The power supply will be
stable to 10ppm. I spoke with Stepan from Hall B and they are not using
feedback and have not had the need. They have a 0.1% energy resolution
requirement.They periodically look at the Hall probe data and have not
seen any changes that would affect their resolution.<br>
Shall we get rid of our feedback/control requirement?<br>

Hall B lived without a field probe for a long time, just trusting the
current setting procedure and monitoring the current -- seemed to be
consistent to much better than 10^-3. Eventually (in 2004) a Hall probe
was installed, but I think it is just read out into the data base, not
used for feedback. If the current regulation is good, then I don't
think field feedback is necessary, unless new operating experience
tells us otherwise.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
Do you know whether the Hall-B used a feedback in their magnet ?
Is it a temperature variation in the magnet that leads to the
field variation for the constant current/voltage (I would talk to the
magnet experts and try to find out the magnitude of the field
instability) ? ( would Paul Brindza be the right person to discuss ? )
Cheers,
Alex
P.S. On the other hand $20k is not an extreme amount.
Perhaps it's better to have the feedback system...

<pre wrap="">Hi Gents,
Have we decided whether or not we can live without an NMR controller on the
tagger magnet power supply? I know we want to know the field with the probes
but do we need to have the feedback to automatically adjust? This may
determine whether or not we can get a rebuilt controller from JLAB for about
$20K.
