  11   Tue May 14 23:22:55 2024 Helmut WeickAcceleratorisochronicity curves
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.
But after a failure only a new setting of quads could revover the peaks.

Then more cooler curves were measured and found to have quite a slope.
Changing ESR energy does not change the curves much, but changing the quads does.
With the stronger variation of quads (+1.65% on two quadrupole families) the curve tilts to opposite side.

All curves in EXCEL.
Cooler voltage converted to Brho with gamma ~ 1.4 and curves in relative frequency spread shifted on top of each other.
In new injections the quads are set new, which causes a frequency jump. Pasted parts of curves to remove jump.

  33   Wed May 15 19:20:32 2024 Helmut WeickAcceleratorscraper setting
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
GE02DS3HG (outside arc              = high Brho side) = -71.4 mm
All other scrapers are open (finished playing with scrapers ~18:20)
When one side is opened more one can cut more on the other.
We can attack the beam from both sides.
With scrapers good resolution, David already posts lifetimes of the isomer.
Details in paper log book.

  34   Wed May 15 19:45:44 2024 Helmut WeickAcceleratorCooler curves after beam shift
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.
The curve then is shifted and has a bit less acceptance.

We lost the beam for ~2min at (from ~5:28 till ~5:30). Everything seems to be back at the same state.

  17   Wed May 15 01:11:45 2024 David, Asahi, Shahab, Chris, RuijiuGeneralTime optimisation
DAQ stopped at 01:11 to optimise data taking cycle of RSAs. 
Changed data writing time from 2s -> 1.8s.
  18   Wed May 15 01:27:13 2024 David, Asahi, Shahab, ChrisDAQRestarted data taking
Data taking restarted at 01:27 following re-alignment of the RSAs.

Also reduced number of processing threads to 10.

  24   Wed May 15 11:45:22 2024 DavidAnalysisLustre 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.

Attached can be found an information email sent:
-------------------
Dear Lustre-users,

the main metadata server of the Lustre file system shows repeated errors that break I/O on at least
some clients.

We will have to restart the server, which will cause a downtime of min. 2 hours.

  21   Wed May 15 06:15:02 2024 Chris, AsahiDAQData transfer to lustre looks to be stopped
File transfer to lustre looks to be stopped at 6:03

File copy program had stopped for some reason. 
After figuring out what the problem was, we have restarted the file copy and everything seems to be catching up.

  19   Wed May 15 02:07:02 2024 Chris G, Asahi YGeneralNo beam to ESR
Injection to ESR stopped around 02:04:45.

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