Thursday 17 May |
- 01:11 Fill #2633 dump in squeeze arc circulator load
channel Ad1B
- 03:16 Fill #2644 Stable beams, lumi 5.2e33 cm-2s-1
- 04:38 Dumped by interlock on BPMS, loosing intensity on
some bunches
- 06:48 Fill #2635 Stable beams, initial lumi 5.5e33
cm-2s-1
- 11:57 Dumped by interlock on BPMS, again one bunch b2
going unstable.
- 12:34 Error on the module H2B2 of the ADT.
- 14:15 Injecting beam for test ramp to find LHCb head on
collisions
- 15:13 Injector chain down: POPS in PS
- 17:47 POPS back
- 18:30 Start ramp with 24 bunches per beam
- 18:38 Dump in ramp at 2.5 TeV due to SIS interlock. Not
clear why.
- 19:32 Injecting probe
- 19:35 Collimator - BIS interlock in TI2, same as last
days. Try to unblock.

9:00 meeting |
Wednesday 16 May |
- 03:05 beam dump, RF fault crowbar problem on module M1B2
- 06:09 Another crowbar at injection.
- Access for RF; problem Beam Imminent Warning point 6
- 12:30 Machine closed. Again RF crowbar while arming the BIS loop.
Diagnostics revealed that there was a problem on a HV cable between the
power supply and the klystron of line 3B2. The cable was replaced.
- 14:50 Cannot close because of problem again with Beam Imminent Warning
point 6.
- 15:40 BIW problem solved.
- 16:10 SPS main power supply down
- 18:35 SPS is back
- 20:55 Stable beams fill #2632, initial lumi 5.0e33. LHCb negative
polarity
- 21:03 Beams dumped on BPMS interlock.
- 21:41 BIS interlock from SR2.INJ1.1 In 8: Coll Motors. Known problem.

Access.
- 09:19 End of access, precycling.
- Problems with TT60 power converter and data base /
communication
- 12:06 Injecting
- 13:15 Scraping with TCP with 1380 bunches
- 13:36 Start ramp
- 14:29 Stable beams fill #2629, initial lumi 4.1e33.
