Shutdown Shutdown ‘11

Why this meeting?

Discuss any last minute issues that may impact the shutdown schedule.

Show schedule for the beginning of the shutdown. Ensure critical access are made on time. Ensure areas opened in accordance with the work

scheduled.Begin Critical and very long jobs ASAP.

General Schedule

The 27 GeV/n CM run will end 0600hrs June 29th.

Power supply work June 29th 0600-1000hrs. The RHIC and AGS cold snake warm up will

begin immediately after PS work.AGS will run proton studies until June 30th.NSRL will un until the end June 30th.ODH 1 postings remain in place until July

6th.Obey all postings, they will be modified

ASAP

General schedule continued

Booster, AGS and RHIC Berms and MDs will be opened sequentially unless given higher priority… Week of July 6th has rigging scheduled to remove blocks from

access gates (MD). They will be left opened as blocks are removed.

Radiation area postings at RHIC will be removed on July 1st.

AGS will remain locked until July 7th. Friday, July 1st: AMMPS personnel to connect Westinghouse to

AGS ring. Wednesday, July 6th: Pulse tests with Westinghouse into AGS.

Booster will be opened following LOTO and RA surveys.Other locked areas (fan houses etc.) will be opened

starting July 1st.

Major RHIC systems shutdown: June 29th.

July 1st:STAR and PHENIX systems to idle, magnets off.CAS to rack out supplies as necessary.RMMPS LOTO for the shutdown.IR and corrector supplies secured.Begin service building summer mode settings.

Temperature set-points will be somewhat higher, Begin power saving measures for all RHIC systemsSecure/LOTO AtR supplies

June 29th

RHIC: Address any last minute cold issues (10am June 29

at the latest). RHIC warm up begins June 29th 10am. HP surveys in dump areas. RHIC RA access begins. Secure/LOTO RHIC equipment. Perform HP surveys, open AtR.

MD and escape tunnel accesses will be opened during the week of July 6th. Riggers will remove PHENIX shielding first, then

blocks around the ring.

Pre Injectors End game:

Booster run for NSRL ends June 30th.Booster Vacuum will be isolated from EBIS to

allow for continued commissioning. ETB “Big Red Bend” will remain energized with postings.

EBIS commissioning schedule still developing. Will continue for some time TBD.

LINAC run protons for BLIP and AGS studies until June 30th. BLIP and NSRL off in afternoon or early evening. AGS studies most likely run until midnight.

Tunnel Access and Timing

On June 29th access will similar to a maintenance day: Following Power supply work, Areas except for the

dumps will be opened to RA. After HP surveys, all dump areas will be opened

For all access, assume running ODH levels until otherwise posted

Normally locked areas should be opened by the end of the week

For access status consult the web or TV displays

LINAC and Booster

Running until June 30th.EBIS work will continue (beam to but not

injected in the Booster).July 1st, Booster berms will be opened after

de-posting.NSRL tunnel areas will be opened in the

evening of June 30th after the last user and final work and documentation is completed.

LINAC tunnel will be opened after a cool down period TBD based on HP surveys.

Power outages:

Electrical outages for maintenance or other reasons will be scheduled around critical path work.

Weekly outage lists will be displayed on CCTV and on the web.

Full outage schedules will be available on the web.

Full schedules and timelines:

Will be available on the web “This Week”Discussed at meetings

Supervisors meeting (weekly)Shutdown Meetings

Bi-weekly, in format similar to time meeting.Start Up meetings (daily)

Will begin as the run approaches Defines access and activity for the day

Shutdown work

Presently Reviewing Submitted Jobs.Major project work schedules are being

determinedSome work and priorities and schedules will

be revisited at the RHIC retreat July 20-22.The following slides are an outline of some

of the major efforts planned.A complete list will be generated and

posted on line.LIST OF JOBS

Major work at a glance: Injectors

Tandem will conduct a general maintenance period and run for outside users as necessary.

LINAC Maintenance to LINAC tanks and systems. New beryllium windows for BLIP.

Booster Foil replacement at C3 and in BtA with bake-outs EBIS work continues…

AGS: Sextupole refurbish continues. G17 gamma quad replace (roof off of AGS?). I5 quad vacuum repair and reinstall. Main Magnet coil replacement? Access controls…

RHIC e-lens

Installation of infrastructure: Tunnel penetrations. Cable installation. Buss installation. Initial stand installation. Modifications to 1010A and 1010 trailer. Cooling system install in 1010 buildings. Install cryogenic tap.

RHIC Projects:

Major re-work in RF area: Prep for 56MHz system:

Cryogenic tap, compressor, trays, power supply racks Redesign of 9 MHz, Bouncer modification Install new landau cavities, modify systems and

commission. 28 MHz system and cavity modifications. 197 MHz system and cavity modifications.

Stochastic cooling

Fabrication and rebuilds: Blue and Yellow horizontal kickers, Blue longitudinal kicker.

Repairs: yellow longitudinal.Installations: Blue & Yellow pickups and H

kickers, Blue Longitudinal kicker, water systems for all tanks.

Upgrades: Drives, low level, hardware and cabling.

Other work…

2 o’clock

AnDY work: Install PHOBOS magnet in IR. Modify HCAL detectors. Install ECAL detectors. Move existing e-cal detectors. Beryllium pipe remove and re-install.

Cryogenic installation tap for CeC. Bake outs…

STAR

Shutdown dependant on GEM tracker installation.

In that case STAR would be rolled out for the shutdown.

Possible impact on RHIC schedule.A new or modified vacuum pipe for the IR

would be needed.Otherwise, STAR work would be minimal.

PHENIX

Installation of the FVTXRe-design and installation of the shielding for

the PRC north and South tunnels. Other work….
