Run Plan
Summary
| Task | Time Budget |
| Beam setup | 0.5 days |
| Testing 20 new blocks | 2.5 days |
| Silicon test | 1.0 day |
| Bleaching/Re-irradiation test | 0.5-1 day |
| Testing old blocks | 12 blocks/day |
- Accelerator Settings
| beam energy | 20 MeV |
| Rep Rate: | 30 Hz |
| I_peak: | 60 mA/pulse |
| pulse width: | 0.1 s (100 ns) |
Day 0
Experiment Set-up Tasks:
1) Translator table -positioned in front of 0 degree exit port and manual operation (50,000/inch).
2) Faraday Cup - positioned at z = 30 cm, clipped (alligator to BNC & grounded), connected to cable C6, terminated into Channel 1 on the scope.
3) Green pick-up loop -Sits freely atop poly blocks in front of exit window with poly spacers between loop and exit window to prevent grounding, connected to cable C7, terminated into channel 3 (?) on scope (re-check this on morning of Day 1).
4) Fluke multimeter & camera set-up for real-time temperature monitoring - camera positioned and focused, connected via cable C5 to DAQ monitor.
5) Glass plate -unable to locate small size plate on Day 0, will look again morning of Day 1. Beam spot size measurement not crucial given properly operating beam scan software.
6) Beam scan -Brian is troubleshooting this software, will show Adrianne how to use the morning of Day 1.
