Week 39 - Parallel MD

Reminder 1: There should always be 1 cycle reserved for parallel MDs in the PSB. The two main studies will focus on (1) stability issues on ring 4, and (2) LHC beams production in the LINAC4 era.

Reminder 2: During the week (when possible) the PS will continue to work on the Matrix measurements with the 5-CM PFWs.

Reminder 3: When it is known that the LHC will not ask beams for about 4-5 hours, inform Ralph Steinhagen (162584) => He needs to do a calibration of the BQK, which can be done with the LHCPROBE bunch on LHCFAST but slightly more intensity is required (~ 1E10 p/b instead of the 2or5E9 p/b asked by the LHC).

 

Monday 22/09 (08:00 - 18:00) - Transverse feedback in the PS

Beam conditions: PS user = MDPS and PSB user = TSTPS

Low-intensity SFTPRO-like beam (the intensity can be reduced by lowering the number of injected turns in the PSB)

Contact Person: F. Blas

 

Tuesday 23/09 (08:00 - 18:00) - PS transition studies

Beam conditions: PS user = MD2 and PSB user = TOF

Contact Person: S. Aumon and W. Baartman

 

Wednesday 24/09 (08:00 - 16:00)

PS dedicated MD

 

Thursday 25/09 (08:00 - 18:00) - Transverse feedback in the PS

Beam conditions: PS user = MDPS and PSB user = TSTPS
