    • 11:15 → 11:20
      New Announcements 5m

      North area UPS replacement: general cooling (concerned by DI & raw water) OFF,
      for 1h, on April 27th from 9am to 10am.

      Will effect various star points, so network interruptions can be expected !

      48V System replacement :

      This will affect us via the AUL line, so we will have a full power cut.
      Date / time to be announced (June)

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

      Irradiator Maintenance  :   NO OPERATION  !  LIMITED ACCESS !
      New proposal  : Week 22  ( 31. 05. to 04. 06)

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

      EHN1 DSO Test :  

      10-11. 06 : 2 days without access to interlocked zones in EHN1.
      For GIF++ we will agree on a few hour intervention during these days.

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

      New gas installation request for NA61 & NA64: 

      Stop of primary gas supply ≤ 2 days.
      Proposed date: together with the annual maintenance in the week 22

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

      GIF pyTIMBER  :   Not opertional

      Changes to access TIMBER (authentication required)
      Retiring of access tools used. We will have to re-write the whole tool.

      Solution has been proposed.
      We need to see if this solves the issue.

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

      GIF Logbook  :   

      Discussion started if we can move to accelerator logbook.

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

      H4 Patrol rigths  :   

      Will be canceled before the beam time. Short retraining will be needed.
       

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

      Beam line control   :   

      Retraining on CESAR application proposed. We will organise this with Bastien closer to beam time
      Please sign up, if you want to participate.

      DOWNSTREAM :   Default filter settings :  1

      ----------------------------------
      ATLAS - MM :


      Middle chamber removed, replaced in front of CMS-CSC.
      Propose to raise the chamber by ≈ 40 cm, stay until summer.
      Long term chamber placed behind CMS-CSC around 3m.

      ATLAS - sTGC :  Potential problem with the exhaust line ? Roberto investigating.
      New chamber arriving. Under test this week.

      ATLAS - sMDT : 
      No special request.

      CMS - CSC: 
      Upstream chamber removed temp. to connect cooling.
      Rack for preparation area is prepared. Arriving in ≈ 1 week.
      Gas purifier to be changed. GC measurement pending.

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

      EcoGas:  New detector installed. Running. Test campaign resumed using eco-friendly mixture (HFO).
      Request : One week 6.9 + 1 week

      CMS-DT:  Expected to return to bunker later this year. INFN still blocking activity outside Italy. 

      CMS-RPC: Radiation program resumed on trolley 1.
      From now on, whenever a source OFF scan is needed, they are going to try to use the upstream abs set to 333 for most of the time. iRPC prototype chamber removed.

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

      Muon Beam Scheduling 2021 10m

      Preparation and Scheduling of Muon Beam Time 2021.
      Will be reviewed when we get the beam plan end of April

      Commissioning of the GIF beam dump:
      Proposed date: Beginning of July (just before NA physics)

      We should be ready to give feedback, e.g. counting rates etc.

      SPS North Area p+     12.07.2021 to 15.11.2021  (18 weeks)
      Beamline         Weeks Requested
      H4                    37 (206%)

      First draft schedule for GIF & RD51 (5 weeks):

      12-20 July (first 9 days)
      27.10 - 14.11 (last 19 days)
      one week floating, currently proposed to be linked before the last 19 days, adding to 26 days.

      20.10 - 2.11 (2 weeks)
      10-14.11 (4 days)

      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.

      List of trained people to be collected.

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

      Improvements needed or planned for the facility.

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

      New multi-sockets installed in the electronic racks area. Already powered and ready to use. 

      Monitoring of primary lines to be done. This year we will have the monitoring of the neutral gas (Ar/CO2/Helium/N2), instead next year it will be done also for the other (iC4H10, R134a, SF6, CF4 etc.). This signals will be then available in PVSS.

      On going discussion for main HFO gas supply line

        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.
