3.  LIPA work on Booster transformer and other nightmares…  A3 RF relay blew out when attempting to recover from Booster HV feed work.  Deuterons extracted to the W-Dump 31 Oct 2007 after H-10 controls returned to remote and vacuum valve I13 opened. *  UPS Failure in LINAC/EBIS Chipmunk and subsequent sweep problems delayed Au setup. *  Vacuum problem (F3) slowed down recovery from Power Outrage work * * Room for improvement in checklisting.

4.  RHIC Ring posted for Radiation.  Emergency generator at 1002 back in service.  Both RHIC Rings are cold. Both RHIC Rings are cold.  STAR and PHENIX magnets are in the middle of testing.  Bunch Merging working well for both d and Au.  RHIC Berms swept. Sweeping of ring should begin ~3:00 PM.  Blue PS checked, cleaned and hi-potted. Test to injection and high current (10% above B  for deuterons). Hysteresis ramp test tonight.  Yellow PS prepping today, should be ready for testing Friday.  Work on the A5 kicker postponed until next week.  New leaks in Blue Stochastic Cooling.

5.  RHIC Shifts start today in the evening.  Experimenter access ill continue during the day until 9 Nov.  Inject deuterons into Blue this evening.  Au in Yellow by Monday 12 Nov.  d-Au collisions by Thur 22 Nov.  Intensity ramp-up and scrubbing Thur. 22 Nov to Fri 30 Nov.  Physics by Sat 1 Dec 2007.  BLIP schedule begins Dec 3. LINAC work must start now.
