1) Over night the source was conservated. It is being restarted now.
2) The approximated amount of Gas in this bottle shall allow for running until tomorrow morning (~24 h). There is still another bottle in reserve (1 l) and one reserve from GANIL (0.5 l).
3) Beam-time coordinator suggests to run until the gas is over, i.e., up into the weekend. |
Wed Jun 30 13:57:14 2021, Yuri, Sergey, Accelerator, sextupoles + scraper positions
|
After setting up on 70Se
Sextupoles were adjusted to optimize the resolution of the 70Se peak. Set values are in the ESR logbook.
The SIS energy was shifted up to increase the number of 70Se.
Esis original = 445.68 MeV/u
Esis now = 451.68 MeV/u (+6 MeV/u)
See attached pictures
scrapers:
GE01DS_HI = -58mm
GE01DS_HA = +130mm (fully open)
GEEXDD2_S = -0.5mm
GEEXDS2HA = -11.2mm |
Thu Jul 1 07:28:55 2021, Jan, Akash, Accelerator, Beam intensity
|
Intensity went up from 5e8 to 1e9 extracted particles from SIS. |
Thu Jul 1 14:47:15 2021, Yury, Helmut, Accelerator, added high Brho scrapers
|
So far only scrapers for low Brho were used:
GE01DS_HI = -58mm (arc from inside) and
GEEXDS2HA = -11.2 (straight from outside)
We also want a cut on high Brho to avoid possible strange lines.
GE01DS_HA is limited in motion, at the maximum inside position (0.0 mm) there is no effect.
Next EEXDS1HG (aperture for ToF-detctor) in mm
120 - completely out
60 - no effect full beam
45 - "
30 - "
20 - "
10 - very little beam remaining
5 - gone
12 - little beam
14 - narow but little
16 - narrow with small tail in left side
20 - again like full
100 - full (as reference for the eye)
Then similar with E02DSHG in arc dipole in mm
-130 - full
-60 - full
-40 - gone
-45 - very tiny
-55 - full
-50 - less beam
-52 - similar
-53 - no difference
-58 - looks like full
Now add EEXDS1HG again with -16mm, no difference, so keep both in.
==> we cut in arc from both sides and on straight secton from both sides
Intensity does not look different to scrapers out.
It looks like a bit less 70Se in ESR then 1h before, but maybe other reason. |
Fri Jul 2 11:44:25 2021, Helmut, Yuri, Accelerator, move scrapers to see effect on unknown lines
|
We close the arc inside and straight section inside scrapers to narrow and cut the 70Se line.
Then look what the other lines left of 70Se will do.
1st series with E01DS_HI
-58 - intensity as before
-52 - still as before
-50 - still full
-45 - less intensity but about same width
-40 - almost gone
0 - gone
-58 - back to old position
2nd series with EEXDS1HG
16.0 - full
15.0 - full
12.5 - less
10.5 - less intensity
9.7 - appears only sometimes
8.2 - gone
10.8 - middle intensity and more narrow, measure for a while |
Fri Jul 2 12:18:35 2021, Pavlos, Alexandre, Accelerator, e-cooling
|
Sergey Litvinov will now try to setup the e-cooler to cool the beam in the ESR.
The data taking has been stopped (except the NTCAP). |
Fri Jul 2 13:10:00 2021, Yuri, Accelerator, Scrapers
|
12:46 moved the TOF detector scraper back to -11 mm |
Fri Jul 2 13:44:50 2021, Sergey, et al, Accelerator, El cooler
|
Up to now, attempts to cool the fat line between Se and Ar were conducted. We give up it now and remove cooling |
Fri Jul 2 16:14:17 2021, Yuri, Accelerator, Scrapers 4 72Br
|
Starting 15:15
The scrapers are moved very much close to each other to eliminate all background particles and leaving basically single ions injected for 72Br. Do not wonder, this means that also many empty files are created.
Scrapers:
E02DS3HG -> -40 mm
EEXDS1HG -> +5 mm
EEXDS2HA -> 0.0 mm
One sees probably a decay of 100 keV isomer, see the attached figure at about 18 s
We will run a few hours with this setting |
Fri Jul 2 20:33:44 2021, Yuri, Accelerator, 70Se setting with closed scrapers
|
We tune back to 70Se.
The scrapers stay closed at EEXDS2HA=0 mm, EEXDS1HG=+5 mm
