Shift Program
-
Start the Archivage OK
-
Align 50 MeV beam in QP1 QP3 with Kevin script
-
TL_bpm2 : adjust espread and put beam at x=0
-
Store the beam in the ring with an orbit as flat as possible around the IP
-
Make a vertical FPC scan - Then put the table at maximum OK
-
Align the CdTe spectro on the on-axis position, approximatively by eyes with the Photonic science camera ==> take a spectrum OK
-
Change gun phase only OK
in positive direction ==> take a spectrum
return to "nominal" ==> spectrum
in negative direction ==> spectrum
return to "nominal" ==> spectrum
-
Change section attenuator only ==> idem (positive, "nominal", negative, "nominal") ==> 4 spectra OK
-
Change the section phase only ==> idem ==> 4 spectra OK
To not be affected too much by the motor hysteresis and by the boucle d'eau, "nominal" means that the beam has to return to its previous X position on TL_bpm2

Commentaires machine :
* pour un bon stockage l'énergie n'est pas bonne (157.3A sur TL/DP pour etre à 0 TL/BPM.02), position vertical TL/BPM.02 ~ -4mm (stockage possible avec +- 2A sur TL/DP)
/!\ l'orbite n'est pas "flat" à l'IP (comparaison avec chargement de la recette "50MeV_100pC_flatVERTorbit_withEL_20250717_10_58_38.txt"), l'orbite n'est plus "plate" avec l'ancienne recette.
* probleme dans la EL, le faisceau n'est pas extrait correctement avec la nouvelle recette.
/!\ probleme BPM/EL, le BPM n'affiche plus la position du faisceau !
* comparaison orbite du matin et de l'après midi, l'orbite change en X pas en Y.
* décalage du délais septum de 4us pour mettre l'impulsion des kicker à peu pres au sommet de l'impulsion ==> il faut désendre le septum de ~ 2V dans ce cas (97.13V --> 95.33V)
** recette sauvée sous : 50MeV_100pC_MRSV_20251014_18_22_53
* mise à jour du DS "DS_Ring_RF" pour faire les changement de fréquence anneau et phase au meme endroit.

Etude des coups manqués en fonction de la phase du dephaseur rigol. (cf plot)
C'est a nouveau reproductible tous les 24 degrees mais a des phases differentes.
Changement de fréquence de sonnerie plus : + 4,5 kHz, delta RF Phase 43 dg. (99 dg. on the limit)
**Si vous avez un probleme de coups manqués, faites +12 degrees sur le dephaseur Rigol. Un bouton a ete ajouté sur l'IHM Ring Cavity**
Analyse de l'amplitude des pulses du septum (cf plot en mode persistance): Bruit de l'ordre de 5mV sur 850mV.

16h35 Stop ThomX
Image processing results from the EL/DG/SST.01 camera. The resolution of the target image is 9.8 μm/pixel (horizontally).
The rms width of the horizontal beam profile (Gaussian approximation) is 325 pixels or 3.2 mm (see the figure uploaded). The simulated dispersion at the screen is about 1 m, so the rms energy spread is 0.32%. |

Kevin and Vincent came to help.
All systems were started.
We switch on the RF and found problem with the reflected RF power in the gun. Checked the temperature and found that chiller failed to set the proper temperature.
10h10 Restart frigo+chiller
Several restarts but the temperature does not rise.
After several attempts it is OK
11h Problem with laser, we do nto see the dark current on the ICT1; Try to understand the reason
Laser was not aligned. Kevin helped.
We restarted all the Liberas as they were not in a good state.
The phase shifter DS was OFF.
11h50 Finally we have the beam in the ring
problem with the RIC1 STR 4 VERT It does not take the command and stays in the orange state. Steerer resistance is 18 Ohm.
12h02 F Gun phase 283 dg. Sect Att. 2.32 dB. Sect. phase 218 dg. Beam charges about -100 pC. Charge devices do not show values
Restart all Liberas because of reading problems
Srudies of the RF freq change. it is clear that it changes the phase of the RF cavity. Not clear if it is OK for th e measurements.
=> It is very important to measure the deltaPhase introduced by the RF transport lines in order to proceed with the measurements.
The vert cteere in the ring shuld be checked/repaired.
Stop for lunch and steerer reparation.
