Entry  Wed Apr 28 09:36:39 2021, Helmut Weick, Simulations, LISE file for fragments from TE3UF into ESR E143_weick.pptxE143_TE-ESR.lpp
Uncooled beam on target at TE3UF with dispersion and slit in TE beamlne and realistic injection into ESR.
Now tuned for 72Ge but can easily be modified to other fragment settings. 
The target thickness may need adjustemet after measurement.
The attched powerpoint file explains the settup a bit more.

Entry  Tue May 4 17:54:08 2021, Helmut Weick, Simulations, updated LISE file E143_TEline-ESR-2.lpp
This file really has the optics like used in the last ESR experiments.
Now the transmission is also a little bit better.
Entry  Tue May 4 18:25:31 2021, Helmut Weick, Simulations, cutting of primary beam TE4-slits.JPGTE5-slits.JPG
The slits at TE4 and TE5 can be used to cut away the unwanted 78Kr beam (see pictures).
We do not want activation of the beamline. 78Kr35+ even has a chance of being injected.
Entry  Tue May 4 21:49:04 2021, Helmut Weick, Simulations, cut Brho by scrapers dispersion-oscillaction.JPG
The dispersion from the production target into the ESR is not matched.
This is not good for momentum acceptance, but we anyway want to cut the acceptance.
Dispersion will oscillate with the tune of ESR. After 3 turns we expect a maximum dispersion. 
The picture shows in red the dispersion curve for dp/p=0.1% and beam envelopes of 10 mm mrad.
So we can use scrapers in north or south arc to cut Brho. It should be done from both sides.
How much? Watch the intensity drop.
Best positions look at plot. Straight section outside for low Brho, arc outside for high Brho.
Could be EEXDS2HA and E02DSH (outside).
Entry  Thu May 6 00:32:57 2021, Helmut Weick, Simulations, GICOSY file for TE beamline and ESR SIS-TE-ESR-isoc-std.datTE-ESR.JPG
This file has several options:
start in SIS, at TE3UF target or inside ESR, choose with GOTO LABEL (G L)after start system (S S).
Depending on the choice select different start beam parameters at top of file, others comment out.

There are also different optics setting with different quadrupoles:
- for TE beamline the standard and the mode by Hans for better focus on the target.
- for ESR a standard mode and variations of isochronous modes
also select by commenting in/out.

Input can be made also in units of K'L for fast import from parammodi, still by hand but with copy and paste.
One half of ESR is defined as a block, can be used more or less often (B I HALF ;)
Entry  Sat May 8 01:33:25 2021, Helmut Weick, Simulations, frequency list for 70Se setting freq-lines-70Se.JPGfrag-freq-list.xlsx
EXCEL table with all possible fragments injected into ESR.
The path length in ESR, gamma_t and harmonic are adjusted to the 72Ge data. 
Some lifetimes are limited but all intense lines are >30s in lab system.
There are two versions (for cooled beam with fixed v or uncooled (isochronous) 
with fixed average Brho, take the second (grey) column.
For larger frequency shifts harmonics will overlap.
You can add more isomers.
Entry  Fri May 7 04:01:51 2021, Shahab, Runs, Picture after scraping pic.jpg
this picture is after scraping by helmut, showing the 410 MHz detector, that is we would expect an isomer where the marker M1 is, i.e. at 2.2kHz on the left side, which we unfortunately don’t see (yet).

Entry  Fri May 7 18:43:13 2021, Kanika, Michael, Shahab, Runs, cave M experiment needs more spills rep.jpg
our pattern causes beam loss while scanning the biological probes in the Cave M bio experiment. They loose every other spill due to high request rate from ESR.

For the next 2 hours, the operators have changed the spill pattern that as long as they are scanning , we get only every 1 minute, otherwise we get our 15 seconds as usual.

after two hours this situation should be tuned back to the original spill pattern.
