Entry  Fri May 21 19:20:54 2021, Laszlo, General, misalignment in the pattern, 2021 
for some reason the event number of the target ON and OFF was misaligned with the pattern.
This means that the last few runs (run53, run52...) measured not in the target on phase but one before (at 10 instead of 11). Therefore, with these 
runs we measured the TargetOFF phase instead TargetON (that is why the pg peak seem to disappear...)
Entry  Sat May 22 14:53:34 2021, Beatriz et al., General, DSSD Movement, 2021 
DSSSD moved to the most in position in order to try to scrape the beam with the scraper.
Entry  Sat May 22 16:28:10 2021, Laszlo, General, DSSSD movement, 2021 
The DSSSD is moved back to its measurement position(-25mm).
Entry  Sat May 22 16:29:07 2021, Laszlo et al., General, coolers are back, 2021 
we can measure again.

(please write a detailed description if needed)
Entry  Sat May 22 17:15:26 2021, Laszlo, General, Scraper position, 2021 
We found the beam axis with the scraper to be -17.5 mm.
The Scraper position set to +12.5 mm, 30 mm relative from the beam.
Entry  Sat May 22 20:46:19 2021, Laszlo, Pierre.Michel, Enis, General, new scraper position, 2021 
The scraper was moved into 2.5mm in absolute which corresponds to 20mm away from the beam axis.

Entry  Sat May 22 22:29:48 2021, Laszlo, Pierre.Michel, Enis, General, new scraper position, 2021 
The scraper was moved into 7.5 mm in absolute which corresponds to 25 mm away from the beam axis.

Entry  Sun May 23 02:16:47 2021, Laszlo, General, quick comparison between different scraping positions, 2021 scraping_30.pngscraping_25.pngscraping_20.png
So far we did 3 scraping positions:
- 30mm away from beam axis (lmd72-75)
- 25mm away from beam axis (lmd78-80)
- 20mm away from beam axis (lmd76-77)

below one can see the comparison of the scrapings for the DSSSD spectrum. Please mind the different amount of data collected
Entry  Sun May 23 15:36:10 2021, Rui-Jiu Chen& Alex, General, All shifts until Monday morning (24th May) have been cancelled. , 2021 
All shifts until Monday morning (24th May) have been cancelled. 
Next update on further situation (in particular concerning the morning shift on Monday) will be given tonight .

Entry  Tue May 25 08:36:15 2021, Jan, General, lessons learned, 2021 
1. before using stoch. cooling in ESR, boot and update the windows PC
2. better diagnostics for low energy/intensity beam-target overlapp in ESR is needed (either a clever analysis or a new detector)
more to come
Entry  Tue May 25 13:49:51 2021, Oliver, Diego, Jan, General, No Beam, 2021 
No beam from 13:49:00 until 
Entry  Wed May 26 15:30:03 2021, Ragan, Thanassis, General, Changing the beam energy , 2021 
The ESR team is changing the beam energy to 6 MeV/u.
Entry  Wed May 26 18:37:34 2021, Ragan, Thanassis, General, Optimization target bump/overlapp, 2021 
| bump position | X ray bdt ON | Si rate ON |
---------------------------------------------
| -11.5         | 120          | 4-5        |
| -10.5         | 100          | 5          |
| -9.5          | 85           | 5          |
| -12.5         | 100          | 6          |

-11.5 bump position is taken for the data taking.
Entry  Wed May 26 19:08:17 2021, Ragan, Thanassis, General, Cooler down, 2021 
We stopped data taking as the electron cooler is down.
Entry  Thu May 27 08:26:15 2021, Yuri, Beatriz, General, Optimisation beam position on target and scraper position, 2021 
Optimised overlap with the target by shifting the beam from -11.5 to 12.8 mm. This lead to an increase of the DSSSD rate of a factor between 2.5 or 3.
Adjusted scraper position  by looking at x-ray rate and move it from +1 to +2.

Entry  Sat May 29 23:05:52 2021, Oliver, Diego, General, No Beam, 2021 
Due to a radioprotection issue in CaveA there is no beam. We wait for the radioprotection shift to arrive...

Beam back at 23:18
Entry  Sun May 30 00:14:58 2021, Oliver, Diego, General, SIS Pattern changed, 2021 
The pattern in SIS was changed so that we get more injections into ESR. Before HTD had 9 seconds which resulted in a timeout in the ESR. Now HTD has 10 seconds which improved a lot...
