Mott beam setup and checkout

13 hours 50 minutes ago
Log Number: 4468988Logbook(s): Entry Makers: brukerkachwalasuleimanBody: 

Starting from Ops setup, but with HWien=0, VWien=90 (nominal), flipper +/-.

Opened Mott valve (unmasked).
Unmasked FSD bit for IBC0L02 to trip above 5 uA CW (calibrated by reading counts in expert screen; trip limit at 3500 counts).
Set up beam to Mott target, p=5.5 MeV/c, booster crested.
Allsave #26568.

Ali is running CODA from my account on another machine to learn the steps.

1L23 Dropping out of HV

15 hours 27 minutes ago
Log Number: 4468966Logbook(s): Entry Makers: bjacobBody: 

Every source of information I can find indicates that we can turn this zone on (SRM, ATLis 118909, RF HCO Spreadsheet, and so on), AND we have turned this zone on an ramped it up in this start up period already (see attached ELog). It was off when I came in this morning so, with all those checks bolstering my confidence I attempted to turn it back on. However, it tripped out of HV almost immediately afterwards.

It looks like earlier this week cav 3 was unbypassed due to its Sorenson being replaced. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with it tripping out of HV.

Masked VBV3D00A and VBV5D00

17 hours 18 minutes ago
Log Number: 4468962Logbook(s): Entry Makers: bjacobBody: 

We will not be sending beam down either of these lines for today's beam studies. Additionally, VBV0L01B is on another unmasked channel so we will still be alerted if this valve closes.

Making this log because, while we have standing orders indicating that masking VBV3D00 is okay, I couldn't find any documentation on VBV5D00. According to the Injector Quick reference doc, VBV5D00 is disconnected at this time. As such, it may make sense to add VBV5D00 to ABIL.

1L02 Gradient recovery, part 2

21 hours 13 minutes ago
Log Number: 4468952Logbook(s): Entry Makers: kpriceBody: 

Picking up from last night to push gradient in the last two cavities of 1L02. Also looks like there might be some room to keep pushing cavity 4 if I take it slow. LEM req heat is set per hypothetical LEM at 990 MeV.

Took a break from ramping gradient to try tuning this zone after finding cavity 8 quench limited to ~9 MV/m. Cavity 1 seems to be driving the slightly elevated beamline vacuum for this zone, along with having a worrisome constant KRRP of ~0.12.

Pushed cavity 4 to 7.6 MV/m (quench limited). Got cavity 7 to its ODVH but only managed 9.1 MV/m in cavity 8 in the end.
