Upstream Beamline

BEAM - Beamline

Raja:

In my absence last week, there was some confusion as to the height of the MIPP beam and the numbers in the survey sheet. The confusion arose due to an incorrect set of numbers in one of Virgil's E-Mails. I enclose the numbers here for the record.

E-907 Initial Data for Transport              01 April, 2003
Coordinate System:  Cartesian right-handed:  (origin @ MT6T2)
   
NAME                  X (m)          Y (m)          Z (m)
   
MC5Q1-1_UP            0.000000      -0.864611    -125.699994
MC5Q1-1_DN            0.000000      -0.864535    -122.651986
MC5Q1-2_UP            0.000000      -0.864405    -122.353533
MC5Q1-2_DN            0.000000      -0.864613    -119.305524
MC5Q2_UP              0.000000      -0.864583    -118.999205
MC5Q2_DN              0.000000      -0.864971    -115.951179
MT6T2                 0.000000       0.000000       0.000000
END_MC7               0.000000       0.000000      34.666838

These numbers used 2 floors. One in MC7 and another in MC5. the two floors are not the same (differ by ~1/2 in)..

The net upshot is that the survey sheet I put out on the web was correct. I have added two more columns to the sheet which give the height of the elements in the global co-ordinate system the surveyors use. These agree with the survey numbers.

Raja:

As we begin to install the experiment, computers are being brought on site. As a general rule, we need to make sure that desktop computers in the portakamps are secured. The Key and ID office on the ground floor at FErmilab gives out computer lock kits which can be used to secure computers. E907DAQ and associated CPU's are a particular case in point. They need to be secured. People working on the systems should make sure that this happens.

David Asner:

I have managed to readout the 429x [DC1-4] electronics with the ppc.
