Most of the shift was used by CCR to tune the beam after the RF problem of last night had been fixed. There was an issue with an extended time needed to refill the ring.

The beam came back by 3.30 after tuning since 23:00, but the tune was not very good. The top BQM shows >400, and the S/N ratio of the forward chamber is only 1.1-1.2.

Very frequent trips of BQMs during the tuning as well as of the WC after the beam was back prevented concentrated work on other topics.
The vertical bump data regarding reconstructed track yields and normalized BQM rates in order to determine the optimum vertical beam position still needs to be analyzed.
