RHIC Startup: During the APEX work yesterday, there was a reduced beta* lattice developed, but not completely evaluated. During machine development today, we will try to finish the evaluation, and try using the reduced beta* lattice in Yellow. If this works well, we will try to reduce beta* in Blue as well.
PHENIX wants to coordinate with Angelika on a vernier scan to understand the backgrounds.
Earlier this week, Todd did orbit corrections for the quads. Do these corrections scale with the new beta* lattice? This needs to be tried. Mei will do orbit and dispersion measurements at store.
Beta* is measured horizontally in IP8 and vertically in IP6. The BPMs were not available for the other measurements, This needs to be completed today.
Back up for physics running at 4:00PM.
Friday morning, STAR would like to do a 2 hour study with 6x6 bunch store.
