RHIC Startup: Increased the bunch intensity from 0.6E11 to 1E11 deuterons in Blue. Vadim noticed that the vertical tunes in Blue and Yellow were too close to each other. Now they are more separated, allowing for the increase in Blue. And the number of bunches has increased to 87. Now ZDC rates peak at ~90kHz.
Todd has a study he would like to do with the last hour of the morning store.
SteveT is ready with the new small beta* lattice. Don will attempt a couple of ramps today at the end of the morning store before refilling.
Behind the ramps, Mike Brennan wants to do some RF work. Problems with a sticky tuner. Blue Storage problems also.
