Things are still progressing well. </div><div class="">The beam has made it to 9R and they believe it is back to the same condition as</div><div class="">when it went off on Mar. 4th. They are currently focussing on increasing the</div><div class="">total power of the beam to 900kW in order to meet the simultaneous Hall-C</div><div class="">and Hall-A needs for the final 2 weeks of the run. They are at about 760kW right</div><div class="">now.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""> Regarding Hall-D, they are still hopeful that they will be able to deliver beam to us</div><div class="">sometime during swing shift, but that will depend very much on their progress</div><div class="">throughout the day today. As such, shifts will remain on stand-by until 4pm.</div><div class="">Shift takers should plan on manning shifts starting at 4pm today. I will contact the</div><div class="">accelerator at 3pm for a status report and evaluate if any change is warranted </div><div class="">at that time.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""> If you have any questions please contact me on the RC phone (757) 383-5542.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Regards,</div><div class="">-David (Acting R.C.)</div><br class=""><div class="">
