2 Arnd Meyer (RWTH Aachen) Sep 8, 2003Page 2 Weekly Summary ● Stable data taking with >90% efficiency much of the time. Two larger downtimes > 1 hr (False) SMT smoke alarm in the collision hall (Tuesday) (False) drip detector tripping off L1CAL (Friday) Rack monitoring will be inspected during the shutdown ● Plenty of special runs and related activity until the last hours of store Forward Proton Detector commissioning Level 1 Muon trigger efficiency L1 Track trigger firmware debugging L1 Cal trigger missing E T and calibration studies, L2/L3 calorimeter studies L2 Track and Preshower commissioning First physics runs with Silicon Track Trigger (part of it) in the readout ● Went into supervised access yesterday afternoon

3 Arnd Meyer (RWTH Aachen) Sep 8, 2003Page 3 Shutdown Plans ● Major goals for the shutdown Improve reliability: reduce access time, periods with incomplete detector etc. Improve quality of the data: reduce calorimeter noise, repair Silicon HDI's ● Detector groups together with mechanical and electrical support groups have developed detailed job lists. Day-by-day schedule includes Detector opening and closing Allocation of manpower resources from detector groups and Fermilab's support teams Survey as needed during major moves – asking for help / cooperation from survey group because of ongoing Calorimeter noise study ● Duration of the shutdown is long enough to perform all major planned activities

4 Arnd Meyer (RWTH Aachen) Sep 8, 2003Page 4 Shutdown: Major Jobs I ● Luminosity system Spare cables installations ● Silicon Repairs of failed HDIs / electronics Coherent noise and “grass” noise studies Installation of coolant lines resistivity monitors Replacement of TLDs ● Fiber tracker and preshowers Maintenance of LVPSs and installing upgraded LVPS (better connectors) Modifications of AFE boards to remove un- used SVX inputs from the readout –Reduce data size and front-end busy for the D0 detector Maintenance of the VLPC He cooling system 0 5 10 15 20 25 09/28/0101/06/0204/16/0207/25/0211/02/0202/10/0305/21/0308/29/03 calibration date % disabled laddersF-wedgesH-wedges All definitely declared dead after Jan ’03 shut-down !? ? % disabled HDI vs. time Two projects: !? ? and

5 Arnd Meyer (RWTH Aachen) Sep 8, 2003Page 5 Shutdown: Major Jobs II ● Calorimeter Replacement of all large cooling fans for preamplifiers cooling Modifications and tests of all Rack Monitor Interfaces Study and hopefully fix noises (currently performing step by step power up of experiment) ● Muon Access to A layer forward muon tracker: replacement of preamplifiers, gas leaks, gas monitors Installation of extra trigger counters Installation of ~200 remote power cycle relays for front-end electronics and all relevant cabling ● Forward proton detector Maintenance and installation of electronics for full system operation ● General detector maintenance Air handlers, hydraulic systems, vacuum jackets, cooling water systems, ODH heads, etc.

6 Arnd Meyer (RWTH Aachen) Sep 8, 2003Page 6 Summary ● D0 was in good shape for physics data taking until the last store ● Besides physics, collected plenty of special runs for future improvements ● Collected 214pb -1 with complete detector ● Detailed plan for the shutdown is in place Assume access ends on November 17 th Plan to finish all major jobs in 7 weeks with only limited access needed during the last 3 weeks Close detector during week 10 ● Commission detector for beam during the last week of the shutdown in order to be ready for physics as quickly as possible
