This document details recent experiments in physics focusing on tuning rings for increased intensity. Discusses ongoing maintenance, adjustments, and challenges faced during the process. Examines the impact of orbit effects and store tunes on the experiments. Future plans include enhancing injection measurements and implementing strategies to ensure stable orbits and high jet values.

Past week • Machine Development • Spin Tune Verified for Blue Ring • Studies of RF bunch-by-bunch phase • Booster Ground Fault • Trouble with Aborts • Both Blue and Yellow lower Jet values
Current Situation • For past several fills Blue Jet numbers have been in high 40's to low 50's. • Yellow has also seen some dramatic variation spiking up to 65% and down to 46% • Some indications that these are related to orbit • Yellow Emittance has played a role • Store tunes • We are still trying to understand nature of the orbit effect
Future Plans • Eliminating Injection Pol. Measurements • Going to 15hr Stores to Save abort kicker • Try an control orbits keep them in place where we have seen high Jet values.
