DRAGON minutes 05 Aug 2008

Present: DH, CD, SF, GR, CR, PB, UH (rec)

Hardware
* all dipole sections are pumping down, as is the gas target and the ionisation chamber
* EDs conditioning up to to 150/130
* final slit box vacuum at 1.5e-6 T (should be 10-7), find PM tomorrow for leak checking
* IC window and MCP foils seem to be ok

preparation for beam time (S33 from OLIS)
* cool down trap, put in hydrogen
* beam earliest on Friday, will be decided this afternoon; we asked for 3 shifts,
* run plan:
 do CSD
 attenuated beam runs to check IC
 measure the 3 high-energy resonances at different charge states
* expected beam: 5e9 /s

AOB
* EPICS: the scaling only works via the direct connection on isdaq04, the programme should only be used there
* SF will give his presentation on Friday
* the mini shutdown will be one week later than originally scheduled
