Entry  Sat May 18 00:37:52 2024, Helmut, Wolfram, Shahab, David, Xinliang, Runs, SIS beam gone 
 
Entry  Tue May 14 23:40:03 2024, Helmut, Sergey, Yury, Accelerator, paper log book IMG_20240514_233830.jpgIMG_20240514_233820.jpg
two pages of log book on paper for teh first setup,
injection into ESR and tuning primary beam 100Mo and fragment 98Mo.

Sergey started with a setting with quadrupoles already changed like in 2021.
Ths was used for the first isochronicity curves.
It also gave soem, however, not good peak shapes with scrapers closed.
Entry  Wed May 15 19:20:32 2024, Helmut Weick, Accelerator, scraper setting IMG_20240515_193017_HDR.jpgIMG_20240515_192644.jpgIMG_20240515_182802.jpg
After the orbit correction on the target straight section the scrapers work better.
One pair of scrapers works best:
GEEXDS2HA (outside straight section =  low Brho side) = -4.0 mm
Entry  Wed May 15 19:45:44 2024, Helmut Weick, Accelerator, Cooler curves after beam shift curce_1.PNGcurce_2.PNGisoc_curves_15052024.xlsx
After the Beam position tuning but before the scraper tuning two more cooler curves were taken.
The first with all scrapers open shows a similar shape to before with the same quadrupole setting.
Afterwards the ESR ebergy was shifted by -0.8 MeV/u to get the beam more on an outer orbit.

until we lost the beam in the night.
Entry  Mon May 20 05:32:17 2024, Gregor, Cagla, Accelerator, Short beam interruption 
We lost the beam for ~2min at (from ~5:28 till ~5:30). Everything seems to be back at the same state.

Entry  Thu May 9 09:12:59 2024, Dounia, Shahab, DAQ, RSA file sync 
RSA file sync with server was up with LXIR131 through to the Lustre.

Entry  Wed May 15 00:26:53 2024, David, Asahi, Shahab, Chris, Ruijiu, Runs, First data file - 00:26 
Centered resonant frequency on 98Mo+42 at the 126 harmonic (243.925 MHz) and 211 harmonic (408.483 MHz).
Recording for 2 seconds (injection start at 10%), injection every 6 seconds. 
Entry  Wed May 15 01:11:45 2024, David, Asahi, Shahab, Chris, Ruijiu, General, Time optimisation 
DAQ stopped at 01:11 to optimise data taking cycle of RSAs. 
Changed data writing time from 2s -> 1.8s.
Entry  Wed May 15 01:27:13 2024, David, Asahi, Shahab, Chris, DAQ, Restarted data taking 
Data taking restarted at 01:27 following re-alignment of the RSAs.

Also reduced number of processing threads to 10.

Entry  Wed May 15 11:45:22 2024, David, Analysis, Lustre Trouble 
Since around 11:30, Lustre is down, therefore in https://sparc-daq-02.gsi.de/, the spectrograms are not being updated. Expected time to recovery > 2 hours.
The data will still be stored on the local hardisk. Whenever Lustre is online, we start file transfer and analysis.
Entry  Wed May 15 06:15:02 2024, Chris, Asahi, DAQ, Data transfer to lustre looks to be stopped Screenshot_2024-05-15_06-18-17.png
File transfer to lustre looks to be stopped at 6:03

File copy program had stopped for some reason. 
Entry  Wed May 15 02:07:02 2024, Chris G, Asahi Y, General, No beam to ESR 2024-05-15_02-08-05-614.png
Injection to ESR stopped around 02:04:45.

Will continue to write data in hope that beam returns shortly.
