        Summary of requests collected for GIF 2021.pdf

        Deadline passed. Beam request submitted to SPS Physics Coordinator last Saturday.

        North Area Physics : 12.July to 14.November 2021
        We expect to receive the first version of the NA schedule (including GIF) in end of April.

        We now need to start the space planning for the beam weeks.
        Please provide either a CAD drawing (preferred) or food-print (frowned upon) of your setup so we can see how / if they can be aligned along the beam line.

        WILL BE UPDATED DURING THE MEETING !!!

        ----------------------------------

        Weekly Planning :   https://teamup.com/ksvh7dak8mub8k7xpe 
        UPSTREAM :          Default filter settings :  2.2 
        DOWNSTREAM :   Default filter settings :  1

        ----------------------------------

        ATLAS - MM :
        3 long term chambers placed (on the ceiling), operational.
        Waiting for detectors from construction site.

        ATLAS - sTGC :  New stand for flushing chambers before testing. Chambers arrived from Chile.

        ATLAS - sMDT : 
        Gas quality will be changed from class II to class III (bottles ordered and expected next week)
        REQUEST : 2-3 days at the end of next week running with max filter in upstream (outside sTGC tests)

        CMS - CSC:  Progressing with the activity to resume everything after the long stop. Still some source off needed.

        EP-DT2 :  System restarted. The aging test with eco-friendly gas mixture are going well. 
        Request : Once per month test with Ar, operated from a local bottle.

        CMS-DT:  Expected to return to bunker later / next year. INFN still blocking activity outside Italy. Preparing for the shutdown and most probably switch to low gas flow already today or tomorrow. 

        EcoGas:  New detector installed. Restarted. Test campaign resumed using eco-friendly mixture (HFO).

        CMS-RPC: Radiation program resumed on trolley 1. Some impedance problem to solve on the new chambers. Gas kill signal that didn't work when the R134a- FIXED. Proposal to keep 4.6 as default attenuation filter for one week - outside sTGC measurements.

        ATLAS-RPC: Coming back for the moment, not before March 2021.

        New requests for tests at GIF 5m

        introduction, goal of the test, plan, needs

        BLM measuring campaign announced / ≈ 100 BLM, 6h approx. Week 45 (November 2nd till Friday 6th ). We will arrange everything in a way that the setup could be installed inside the bunker in the upstream area near ATL-sTGC setup    -> postponed until next year

        ----------------------------------

        Bulgaria academy of science -> testing of new type of radiation monitor system

        A new setup of ALICE-RPC will come. More news in coming weeks.

        Lab on Fiber (LOF) dosimeter

        Gas recuperation system to be installed - Responsible : Roberto
        4 additional racks in Gas Service area. One containing flammable gas.
        FG detection system to be installed, power needs to be provided.
        (DELAYED by a few months. Will be first installed in CMS, and only later come to GIF)

      • 11:35 → 11:40
        Long Term Planning 5m

        Gas usage at GIF :  we need to compile a table of gas mixture / consumption

        Gas training courses : ATEX level 1  and F-Gas training courses.
        List of trained people to be collected.

        Patrol rights : Will be reset before the Muon Beam  (July).
        Please contact Giuseppe for re-qualification.

        Training Session for CESAR to be organised before beam time.

      • 11:40 → 11:45
        Infrastructure & Upgrades to the Facility 5m

        Improvements needed or planned for the facility.

        Speakers: Giuseppe Pezzullo (CERN), Martin Richard Jaekel (CERN)

        Monitoring of primary lines to be done.

        Cooling system expected to be back on 15.02.

        On going discussion for main HFO gas supply line. 

        Removal of the fire detection interlock with the GIF++ control room. It should happen in the next couple of weeks. Since the signal is an 'active high' there won't be any impact on our equipment. Everything will than be checked when the times comes for the next AULs testing.

          Guidelines for filling in IMPACT requests

          List of active IMPACT declarations : https://impact.cern.ch/impact/secure/activities/accessPoint/YDALC02-PPE154

          General Guideline : One IMPACT per setup.

          • two chambers on individual supports -> 2 IMPACT declarations
          • multiple chambers swapped on same or similar support -> one IMPACT declaration
          • basically, if you need two locations, please make two IMPACT declaration (clone)

          Each Setup should have IMPACT label attached with number.
          Attached documents : CAD file  or  picture.
          Review working hours : if your declaration includes the bunker area, please state the number of hours you want to stay INSIDE the bunker only (for RP purposes).

        • CoVid-19 5m

          CoVid-19 Risk Assessment for the Facility :  https://edms.cern.ch/document/2376286/1

          General guideline :

          • ONE setup to enter the bunker at any given time.
          • All presence at the GIF and access to the bunker needs to be announced via Teamup beforehand (!)
          • Traceability of people on site :  Logbook ! - List all the people you encountered.
