User Information
The beam is up and we are running smoothly with no
faults thus far with the normal singlet fill pattern and refills taking place
every 12 hours. A few minor operational problems are apparent. The injection efficiency is lower than
normal, so the injections will require more care to ensure that radiation
monitors are not tripped. In addition,
that is an apparent horizontal beam instability, which is showing up at high
current levels. Both of these problems
will be looked into during next Tuesdays studies period. The studies will last for 8 hours starting
at 0800.
