| Supernanogan is online. MCIS:TP3 is off. It should be on. It is required for best production of higher charge states. |

Accelerator development continues. Save: 101201_2157.snaiosvault. Today's agenda: emittance scans. Attached: overnight beam plus a preliminary horizontal
emittance scan 101202_0951ILTEMIT.txt.
Later... First good scan 101202_1016ILTEMIT.txt. |

Last moments of beam development for SEBT commissioning. Attached is an FC6 plot and the present optics and 1mm slits. Decision was to not do a vertical
emittance scan at this time, but proceed with 15Kr development, up next. Before we shut off, one last emittance scan coming up.
Later... Emittance scan with 2.5mm slits (default position setting used) in progress... Done. 101203_1017ILTEMIT.txt. |

The previous 12C2+ development run from the Supernanogan ended Friday morning. Starting Friday afternoon, the Supernanogan was prepared for an upcoming
SEBT development using krypton beams. The source was ready overnight.
There were some teething pains over the weekend. An A/q=5.71 beam is sitting on FC6 presently. The beam schedule shows an experiment change on Thursday |

| Development should continue today. Looks like Supernanogan went through a plasma mode change overnight and settled into a new mode. |

Beam development started yesterday. Looks like the HERACLES run, which started Thursday,
ended yesterday morning. |

| Development continues in the search for gold. A=197 Present A/q=5.94, which suggests 197Au+33. It could also be a tail of 12C+2. We'll see. |

|
Development and the quest for gold continue.
Later... Mass scans in region of 197Au33 A/q=5.97, with graph of all theoretically possible charge states in the same A/q region. The thing to
note in that last graph is how clean is the region (just left of A/q=6) where 197Au33 is predicted. |
