RHIC Running: The vernier scan did not run yesterday until 19:00. Luminosities at STAR and PHENIX were higher after the scan than before. The scan was performed on a store that had poor Yellow intensity because of an error in filling.
Alex Zaltsman has requested an access to check on the L-10 cavity. He believes that there may be a water leak in the piping, and is prepared to replace the pipe if a leak is found. The repair will not take place during this morning's access.
Both experiments reported that even though beam has been erratic this week, they have recorded over 90% of the peak operating luminosity, so things are not that bad.
