Description

Experimental work consisted of one new run started and completed this quarter, and the completion of one of the three continuing runs. Of the scheduled operating time, the beam was on for 69.4% of the time, 2.3% of the time was used for experimental setup, and equipment outage took 29.3% of the time. There were two scheduled and two impromptu shutdowns. During one of the scheduled shutdowns the external-beam extraction magnets were installed in the east and south tangent tanks. The other scheduled shutdown was to readjust the Bevatron magnet elevation to correct for foundation subsidence. Internal magnets were also … continued below

Of the scheduled operating time, the beam was on for 69.4% of the time, 2.3% of the time was used for experimental setup, and equipment outage took 29.3% of the time. There were two scheduled and two impromptu shutdowns. During one of the scheduled shutdowns the external-beam extraction magnets were installed in the east and south tangent tanks. The other scheduled shutdown was to readjust the Bevatron magnet elevation to correct for foundation subsidence. Internal magnets were also installed. In the new linac development program the ion source was run at 480 kv with a beam current of 100 ma. The linac tank was partially deplated to provide a clean copper surface, and welds and holes were plated with copper. The r-f losses were thereby reduced 20%. (auth)
