2. Agenda Summary Update – Current Activities/Updates – Startup Plans – Upcoming Talks, Reports, Meetings Updates/Talks: Eliana Gianfelice - Booster Optics Correction Procedure and Results

3. Update General Info – Booster Beam: Running still at reduced levels (7 turns – need more RF & source output) – Studies are underway: Apertures / Orbit Smoothing will continue – more magnet moves in future (Kiyomi) Optics correction for the next two weeks – talk today – Booster SS: Stations are operating – controls / shunt problems (work on spares continue) PIP accounts should no longer be used – now on operations (Ann – will meet with us 13:00) – Booster RF cavity rework – RF1 in test stand – additional temp measurements Cavity from RF15 – tuners being reworked Spare cavity work – making progress: parts in machine shop but being assembled Booster RF Cavity 7 (8 also but less) has an RF leak and will likely be removed for repair – Will swap with RF 1 when ready – looks like next week some time We will have 17/19 cavities after the next swap (up from 16) – may allow high-intensity – Booster Ferrites Low Frequency tester – modified: machined for less snug fit, shipped? first, Second tester parts are about ready to be assembled… mu=20 cores have been ordered, Reid has not yet found a old mu=20 core for vendors to use. – RFQ –2 nd source under vacuum: Trim core will arrive end of April, then tested & shipped – HLRF – planning site visit at vendor (Fernanda and Al – end of April) – Linac Modulator – progress being made – assembly of more modules – Booster Shielding – First part of document given to ES&H, write-up continues – Booster Transverse damper needs to be re-commissioned, Long damper plans started – MI Startup: End of May/Early June – shunts and funding questions still remain… Startup comments (Fernanda, Todd)
