15:50 - 16:20
Room: 874/1-011
• Aperture and strength margins for SEH31 • Performance of BFAs – pedestal and staircases - (strength and PPM capabilities) • Aperture margins for SMH16 • Issues with MTE kickers (sparking). Fancy operation: change of polarities • Limitations in case of test for new extraction schemes in combination with CT operation • Performance of DFA in TT2 (ppm) • Spare policy of SMH16 with MTE • Spare policy of SEH31 with MTE hybrid
