as the beam average current was raised. CEBAF seems to have
+
an average current limit around the spec average current of
+
460 muA 5 pass beam. This current has been briefly achieved,
+
but steady OPs at around 325 muA. BBU looked for but none
+
obviously present. Much optics work has cleaned up beam and
+
made more substantial apertures, but the average current limitation

remains. OPS trip rates now dominated by RF trips.

2. Beam Loading and Q_ext (Krafft)
+
 
+
Jay has gathered some data that indicates that perhaps
+
the Q_ext on many cavities is incorrect. This means the
+
RF systems are not matched to the cavities at the highest
+
operating currents, leading to addition power loads on
+
the klystrons. Could this be a contributor to the average
+
current limits?
