Gun has been up to air for 3 times. It could be oxidation, contamination. Or it could be gun died, less likely. Roasting the gun to burn off the contamination is an idea. Chad just roasted gun for with higher current, we saw gun current increased many times. We will leave roasted for one night.

Quad Test

Tune HRRL

Tune to following settings, observe beam. Check if there is mis-steering by quadrupole magnet.

Test mis-steering

Use OTR screen observe the beam. Turn all the quads off, except one at time. Change quad currents, see if mis-steering happens.

Emittence Test (If time allows?)

Tune HRRL establish stable beam

1. Looking at the beam position on the screen and by the beam current on FC, try to align beam line. The goal is to center the beam on the screen, and maximize the FC charge as high as possible.

2. Reduced the mis-steering at the quadrupole by tuning steerers in the linac.

3. Optimize steerers, solenoids in linac to get a round electron beam shape and no steering at the quadrupole.

4. One good tune earlier for reference: [Tune HRRL]

10 MeV

Energy is set by bending the beam to dipole at specific current.

Set dipole current for 10 MeV, and bend the beam. Tune the beam energy, until we see peak current at the 45 degree Faraday cup.

Emittance measurement at 10 MeV

This is scan for 10 MeV beam. 40 mAmps peak current. Q1 is on, All other quads are off.

1) Scan from -5 Amps to 5 Amps. Increment at 0.2 Amps.

3) Name images by numbers start from 1. Then go on. Like: -5 Amp is 1, -4.8 Amp is 2, and so on til 5 Amp is named 51.

4) Scan multiple times from -5 to 5 Amps, and put them in different folders. Name folder by number, like 1, 2, 3 etc. After finishing one scan go back to -5 Amps. When going back take small steps (like 1 Amp), do not jump from 5 Amps to -5 Amps directly. After reaching back to -5, wait for few moment (like 10 s).

5) For each time, take back ground images. It should be done when RF is on and gun is off.

6) After the scan take a scope image for the current of the FC after the OTR screen. Lower the current, so the vacuum window do not heat up. This step is to check energy.
