15:45 Right now, we are waiting for stable conditions again. There are problems with both the ion source and the accumulation in SIS.
16:20 SIS and source look better now, but now ESR makes trouble. The stacking looks off and after deceleration and cooling barely any Th-ions are stored. |

7:30 There is a short in the ion source and it needs to be changed. Expected down time about 2h
10:30 Ion source was successfully changed, but while ramping up the source a power supply failed. Next on-call service is on their way to GSI.

15:30 We have a break due to an issue at UNILAC (quadrupole failed). Also radiation safety interlock was triggered at the fragment separator. This also
pushed a faradaycup into the ESR (GE01DC3VP).
Just before the issue during the last bunching, the peak was misaligned to the marker in the Schottky. The marker was sitting on the right flank. So the |

We cross-checked the timing. Laser pulse is detected at bins 136 (PD-North) and 171 (PD-south), respectively. Therefore, the laser puls is in the electron
cooler at 153.5. The revolution period corresponds to 3e8Hz / 1.54315MHz = 194.
The ion bunch must travel 2.5m more than the half of the circumference (108.3m). Taking this into account, the ion bunch must be detected (0.5 + 2.5 / |

We cross-checked the laser-ion superposition by using the T-scrapers. We did it only after the scans in order to do not change the duty cycle by much. Attachements
are in the order of the measurements compiled in the table.

After the scan at 22:04 teh FCU new was new calibrated. For this MEdusa was stopped and reopened in the laser lab. This stops the Labview server, and as
a consequence the the connection to the MBS was lsot. Then, MBS needs to be restarted and the online data is cleared. Such an intervention should avoided
as good as possible.

|
In position North there is still the "old" 9423B PMT that draws quite some current.
On this detector threre is also some quite substantial noise. Very likely the base is not ok any more. Noise was much lesss for the other two PMTs.
Since position NORTH is the position with the largest sold angle, if there is another break from the accelerator we should exchange it against SOUTH.
