> If it doesn't break anything, we should take some data at higher intensities, even if we have to prescale the trigger. I propose running two or three more points up to 700 nA on this diamond. This 700uA comes from the original design intensity for GlueX which was 1e8 photons per second on the target in the range 8.4 - 9.0 GeV (or 8.2 - 8.8 GeV with the present endpoint).<br>
><br>

><br>
> I realize that this 5e-4 radlen in the spreadsheet for this diamond is just a placeholder, but that value should be closer to 3e-4. Radiation length is not really a valid metric for a coherent bremsstrahlung spectrum, but in the low-energy tail it is valid, where the radiation length of diamond is close to 15um as long as you stay away from the channeling condition. To get this, you cannot just take amorphous carbon and rescale it by the density, of course, as the crystal structure modifies the radiation length at all orientations.<br>
><br>
> I agree the diamond radiation length is a bit of a fudge, but it actually cancels in my calculation of the expected run time. The only thing I use is the total trigger rate for the nominal intensity (~45 kHz for diamond) and scale by the current to get the time required.<br>

There are two sheets at this link: RunPeriod-2018-08 (the proposal for this week) and RunPeriod-2018-01 (the data we've collected previously). As a reminder, in Spring 2018 we did not have any high-statistics intensity scan with the final Tungsten foil installed in the beamline.<br>
><br>
> The proposal covers the same range of intensity (Beam current x RL) as we had in Spring 2018, with 100M events at each setting (aside from the very low intensity, where the rate is too low). As Sergey requested, this also includes a raw mode run at each setting of 1M events, assumed to run at ~3 kHz. The goal is to have a complete set of intensity scan data for efficiency studies with this Fall 2018 data.<br>
><br>
> The estimated beam time required for this proposal is ~28 hours at 100% efficiency, so it would likely take at least 2 days of calendar time to complete.<br>
