Entry  Sat Jun 15 03:46:34 2024, Night shift, Accelerator, GSI down 
All quadrupole and dipole magnets at SIS and ESR are out of order. Repairs can be expected earliest tomorrow evening. No shifts will take place before 6pm.
Have a look at your mails for details.

Pizza shift

[B]the scan direction is from higher wavelength to lower wavelength, even though it is noted otherwise here in the software.
Entry  Fri Jun 14 13:14:29 2024, Konstantin, Bernhard, Peter, Lukas, General, DAQ crashes at :10 
10 Minutes past a full hour (XX:10) the windows PCs (sometimes) loose connection.
This causes the labview server & the laser remote ctrl  to crash.

Cooling Time in SC7 increased from 9s to 12s

Very successful shift, no crashes until 11:10
Previous night shift had problems with the pulse laser starting around 3am.
Something was loose at the FCU. Rodolfo was called in and was able to fix it.
Entry  Thu Jun 13 22:08:07 2024, Dayshift, Accelerator, Problems with Accelerator? IMG_6064.jpgIMG_6065.jpgIMG_6066.jpg
It seems to be that there are some problems with the injections in the ESR.
The last 2 accumulation cycles showed that wheter only a small amount of ions are injected into the ESR or the injection is missing.

Entry  Thu Jun 13 18:38:24 2024, Rodolfo Sanchez, Julian Palmes, Sebastian Klammes, Laser, Laser Dye change - new MRC settings - scraper checks of laser beam MRC-settings-13-06-2024-after-dye-change-at-3pm.JPG
We changed the dye at ~3pm.

After some fine adjustements of the laser we had to change the MRC settings, because the laser position changed.
Entry  Thu Jun 13 18:23:46 2024, Julian, Laser, Restarting the laser controller 
If the laser controller is locked up again, the little display will show an error message after an attempted medusa scan.
To restart it, follow these steps:
1.) Unlock the beam stabilization.

Entry  Thu Jun 13 12:05:31 2024, Konstantin, Peter, Jonas, Accelerator, RF-amplitude Bunching80mA_BucketFill_10.pngBunching80mA_BucketFill_08.png
To realize the shortest bunches possible, we check the bunch length as a function of two different bunching amplitudes. With the bucket fill set to 1.0
we observe the spectra compiled in attachment 1. The second attachment is recorded with a bucket fill 0f 0.2.
Entry  Thu Jun 13 10:42:02 2024, Danyal, General, Question 
What is the ion beam lifetime, according to the DCCT and Schottky? 
Can somebody measure it, please? 
Yesterday we could not see a fast drop in the "main" beam. 
Entry  Thu Jun 13 10:32:29 2024, Konstantin, Accelerator, (Proper) Cooler settings 
We change the acceleration voltage of the electron cooler and observe the platform high voltage and the count rate at the particle detector south.
Cooler current at 100mA.
