The experiment ran overnight, smoothly, by the looks of it. Beam is on FC6 now, so they're likely done. EOB studies on Mg beam to commence shortly, with source teardown and switchover to Rb beam to follow..
Emittance scans in progress, first at as-delivered settings: 5mm slits. Save: 101027_1102>snapiosfc6
Emittance scans at 26Mg then 24Mg.
Next, go fishing for 85/87Rb in background. Not a lot of fish in this pond... Double-check tune at 24Mg: perfect.
Next up: comprehensive mass scan. Then most likely we will take down the source for clean-up and switchover to Rb beams. Abort due to technical difficulties.
Next up: I just noticed a readable beam at A/q=13.33. Well, that's odd. (We are running 40Ar support gas in the source.) Let's see if it's reproducible. Yep.
Now... IOS bias keeps tripping... Time to investigate... The FUG keeps blowing fuses on reset. But in local mode, it starts and runs just fine. We conclude that its CANBUS card is driving the FUG at full chat on reset. Anyway, F/R#4925. |
