Agenda and Notes

1. Operations Status and Summary

Beam OPS again. Operations at 12 GeV. R100 tripping because of construction noise.

Jan 18-28 ran RF/cavities without beam. Turned on/off infrastructure see microphonic effect.

Powers to produce a heat transfer and choking at lower temp test plan.

Running at low temperature. Differences between expectations and Q curves.

Piezo work started on R100. Should be possible to get some microphonic damping. Stay tuned, code/software problems.

Regular beam studies on Tuesdays and Thursdays for RF recovery likely to be the OPS schedule in foreseeable future.

One hour machine ops devoted to Fast X-ray detection of FE, able to tune for reduced losses. Establish baselines for future comparisons.

C100 tests (determine best pressure "defined by highest operating gradient" to operate at)

Got 70% of cavities back up to E_maxop values, but were having cooling/instability problems when operating at high values.

distinguish/study SEL GDR trip differences (Rama)

Future mechanical investigations to eliminate vibrations in the first place may be appropriate going forward.
