Time Meeting: Agenda • Safety • Schedule: Past, Present and Future • RHIC and Experiment Reports • Machine and System Reports • AOB
Safety • Take 5 for Safety………..Ed Lessard
Schedule: Past • Maintenance for JET (and STAR/PHENIX) on Wed., 13 Feb. • APEX on Thursday, 14 Feb. • Maximized the number of bunches in the machine, 109x109. • Did not see improvement in luminosity over 56x56. • Discovered a timing problem with Injection Kicker. • Decided to postpone radial polarization at PHENIX so we could ramp without rotators. Considering when to return to radial polarization for PHENIX. • PASS problems dumped a store on Sunday 17 Feb and kept RHIC off for ~12 hours. • Moved to 4 hour Physics stores + polarization measurements
Schedule: Past (contin) • Polarimeter Set-Up and Tuning. • Studying polarization: • Profile measurements • At Injection • On the Ramp, if possible? • Prepare for b* squeeze.
Schedule: Future Milestones Feb 15 PHYSICS RUNNING STARTS Feb 20 APEX: 5:00 AM – 5:00 PM Feb 25 NSRL Set-Up begins Feb 26 / 27 APEX/Maintenance Mar 3 NSRL starts running Mar 10 pp ends, 8:00 AM Start Low Energy Au-Au running Mar 12 RHIC Run 08 ends, 8:00 AM Cryo warm-Up Begins
