  5. 10mm-5 Lens-transformer assembly is complete and ready for testing 10mm-3 Lens-transformer assembly has a new stripline and is the spare Stripline failure early March

  6. Studies and Tuning • Debuncher Momentum Cooling Systems • Gain Ramps – determined no affect for 2.2sec cycle • Double Notch Filter • Not achieving desired notch depth • Thinking about new notch filter equalizer • Individual band equalizers - designed first; await chance to install • Accumulator Stacktail System • Delta Kicker to compensate for transverse heating by system • Some quick gains seen • “Centering” of 2 kicker tanks achieved the same effect; need to do all 10 • May still get benefit with new equalizers • Accumulator Transverse Cooling Systems • Individual band equalizers – first should be ready soon • AP2/Debuncher Optics • More circulating beam by moving Debuncher tunes • Decreases Debuncher cooling effectiveness – reverted to design tunes • More beam into Debuncher with some AP2 optics changes - ongoing • Mechanics of transfers out of Accumulator • Rapid transfers covered last All Experimenters’ Meeting

  8. Summary • The Antiproton Source is running well • Outlook is promising • Recent Records • 313.58mA in Accumulator • 26.09mA in 1 hour • 3065.6mA in 1 week (Mon-Mon 00:00)
