[Rgc] [EXTERNAL] Target Change Tomorrow (Sunday)?

[Akbar, Zulkaida (za2hd)]

Dear Sebastian,

You are right, the first 4 hours were wonderful (Run 17118 collected 100 M events in less than 4 hours) but now the beam has been off since 9.15. So, we will run CH2 IN until tomorrow around noon and then flip to OUT and run OUT configuration until Monday morning. And yes, let's discuss about what target to switch to on Monday and whether we should flip the solenoid polarity.

Hi Zulkaida,

as far as I can tell, over the last 6 hours (since beam finally came back) we have taken 120 M events corresponding to 0.09 mC integrated charge. To get the desired quota on CH2, we would need nearly 8x as much - so it looks to me like tomorrow will be too early to switch targets. I would propose we keep running with CH2 until Monday morning. Meanwhile, we can use this thread to discuss what we should  do on Monday - what target to switch to, and whether to flip the solenoid polarity.

More tomorrow - Sebastian

Dear All,

I am sorry to make a new email thread. But there is good news. We got the beam, and it has been stable. In 4 hours, we collected ~100 M events (Run 17118). If the beam keeps stable, We will have ~ 400 M events (200 M HWP In + 200 M HWP Out) by tomorrow morning. So, should we change the target tomorrow during the day shift? What kind of target? Let's have a discussion and decision here.


Best Regards,

Zulkaida Akbar
