Presentation transcript:

:00 meetingEBH 1  6:39 beam dump by BLM 655ms RS on BLMEI.05L4.B2E10_MBRB (which is downstream of BSRT B2).  The losses increased during ~10ms, ~800ms before the dump and stayed constant till the dump.  See next slides from Federico Roncarolo  The BSRT B2 shows stronger heating Thursday night till Friday early morning - fill 3223 and 3225 (not any more during the fill Friday 3226)  ALFA roman pots see stronger heating for fills 3223 and 3225 compared to fill 3220  Nothing abvious seen on the BSRT vacuum, the average bunch length, the maximum bunch length, the bunch population, beam intensity  Maybe a correlation with the minimum binch length? Friday BLM long PM data (Christos Zamanztas)

:00 meetingEBH 5 Bellow Temperature,VacuumFederico Roncarolo

:00 meetingEBH 6  9:18 stable beams fill 3226:  ~1.71e11 ppb  “UFO buster” application detected several events in the location where previous fill was dumped by losses (BSRT beam 2, 5L4)  Peak luminosity ATLAS/CMS: 7E33 cm-2s-1  Integrated lumi in 1h46’: ATLAS/CMS: ~38 pb-1  11:05 Programmed dump for power grid intervention EDF-SIG  ~11:50 EDF-SIG Transformer reconnection  ATLAS toroid tripped, ALICE magnets tripped (?) being nearly completely ramped down anyway  Compensator harmonic filters tripped (as expected)  When the filters were switched back on, lost cryo in pt 2 (as expected) and the undulators tripped  Vacuum intervention during recovery:  Warm up of the beam screen in Q5R8  Sublimation for the MKI8 C and D Morning cont.

:00 meetingEBH 7  ATLAS, CMS, LHCb and Alice  pt 1: CV; EPC; Oxygen Deficiency monitor; Radmon installation between Q5 and Q6  pt 2: cryo; LVDT TDI; RP; EPC  pt 3: EPC  pt 4: BGI, BBQ tune measurement (now higher sensitivity, gate-able tune measurement available on both beams), schottky monitor  pt 6: LBDS MKD; QPS: RB.A67 energy extraction switch  pt 8: vacuum for MKI  Exchange of four 60A correctors for preventive maintenance (internal Auxiliary Power Supplies are not working correctly)  Sector 34: RCBV24.R3B1 & RCBV33.L4B2  Sector 23: RCBH17.R2B2 & RCBV24.R2B2  Varia:  Biometry had to be bypassed to allow access in UJ16  Biometry DB needed to be reloaded on the PAD in PM85 and later in PM45  Problem with lights in UJ43, to be followed up by TI Accesses during recovery

:00 meetingEBH 8  16:00 access needed for undulator RU.R4 (change power module)  16:44 access in Pt8 for RB.A78 (disjoncteur need to be replaced)  18:10 machine closed, start precycle  But it takes a bit longer:  Communication lost with 4 correctors R4  access  One electrical phase missing on some racks due to a blown fuse  RU.R4 tripped (power supply card for its DCCT in fault, spare is in Meyrin, leave it for the moment)  CS and CM lost  Q5, Q6, D3, D4 right of 4 tripped  Lost CS and CM on MSR2  21:30 ready to inject  But then:  RU.L4 tripped (probably a blown fuse in the PC – left off for the time being)  CS and CM lost MSL4  Q5, Q6, D3, D4 and four correctors left of 4 tripped Afternoon – recovery ongoing

:00 meetingEBH 9  23:00 cannot rearm LBDS B2 (no data received) – reset by piquet and dry dump  23:30 pilot injection  Till 1:30 Steering of both injection lines necessary – high losses on the 6 bunches  Chroma measurement: seems that data rate too high, and in bursts – rebooting 3 front-ends  3:37 stable beams fill 3229  Initial luminosities  ATLAS/CMS: ~7.6 E33 cm-2s-1  ALICE very low (~3E30 cm-2s-1)  Integrated lumi in 4h23’:  ATLAS/CMS: 87 pb-1  7:58 beam dump by LBDS B2 – access needed for card exchange  MKI2 soft-start required (vacuum spike of 4E-8 caused it to go in fault during the previous fill) Night – beam back

:00 meetingEBH 10 Beam1 Beam2 ALFA RPs Fill dumped by BLM at BSRT Difference between these two fills correlated to BSRT B2 temperatures Friday Night reaching 40 degrees again

:00 meetingEBH 11  Access:  RU.L4 repair  RU.R4 repair  Diode exchange on RQ10.R6  8kHz interference lines on Head-Tail and BBQ front-ends much stronger than before the access – interfering with tune measurement (UPSs?)  While BSRT B2 mirror moved out (heating problems) abort gap cleaning to be switched on every ~30 minutes while in physics and before a programmed dump  B2 gating not active (FESA issue)  Heating problems (BSRT, ALFA roman pots) under investigation Issues and accesses

:00 meetingEBH 12  Currently: Access for LBDS and in parallel for both of the undulators  Physics  VdM scan CMS at the end of a fill  ADT testing Planning
