Huge 60 Hz + 75 Hz noise at 1E01, Huge vertical 60 Hz at 4E01

The double peak frequency of oscillation at is very consistent in fig 1 at 1E01, the first single pass SEE BPM past the NL. The injector SEE BPM's sample rate is a little bit to high to see 60 Hz, So I can't differentiate between north linac and injector as the source. at 4E01, the 60 Hz vertical oscillation amplitude grows to a whopping 1.5 mm (fig 2).

Tuned 1L03-2

Zeroed the detune angle for this one. Didn't cure the flickery GMES, but brought CRFP down from ~2.5 to ~2.1, and GASK down from ~2.6 to 2.4.

Didn't need to zero the detune angle, it looks like maybe I just put the tuner in a better spot. No change to CRFP; GASK is lower and quieter and GMES isn't flickering anymore.

NLSB MO Line lacking insulation

1 day 6 hours ago
Log Number: 4485842Logbook(s): Entry Makers: alexsBody: 

So far, the indicator most correlated with drifts in the north linac gang phase has been the Zone 1 temperature in the service building (Figure 1. Second chart with negative zone temperature to better show correlation). I took a walk out to visually inspect that area (Figure 2), and found that the MO line behind 1L02 has a lot of insulation peeled off with a decent chunk of the MO exposed (Figures 3-5) compared to the same area in the south linac (figure 6). Bundling this section back up might not be a bad idea.

Looking into harp beam jitter in 3C line

1 day 6 hours ago
Log Number: 4485832Logbook(s): Entry Makers: deirBody: 

Figs 1&2: Comparison of main machine harp velocities vs. Hall C. Additionally, the 3C07A/B, 3C12A/B, and 3C17A/B harps all have x,y,x wires.

On the 3C07A/B harps, there's not a lot of motion on either the x or y wires for these swipes. Judging by the Hall C Steer Up screen and the BPM screen, this is not a particularly dispersive region.

On the 3C12A/B harps, interestingly enough, there's almost no motion on the y wires but the x wires show heavy beam jitter.
