LHC MD#4 draft planning F. Zimmermann and G. Papotti LMC, 07.11.2012
MD#4: 84h • 25 ns MD: 36h • on top of 24h setup • check with 3 nom. bunches, TCT alignment, validation • 2 ramps for ecloud at the flat top (and arc UFOs) • 2 ramps for long range beam-beam • new request: ‘old’ octupole polarity test • requested at LBOC yesterday • 1 ramp for chroma, 1 ramp with 3 nom. bunches for settings, 1 ramp with 480b: min 12h • effects to be then observed in physics fills • recommendation, if approved: carry out earlier than MD#4 to have enough fills to draw conclusions based on statistics
draft plan for MD block #4 total: 84 h
