[Brahms-l] Short Term Schedule for the Machine

Dear Collaborators,
 
Here is a short-term schedule for the machine.
 
- Physics run started one week ago (1/11).
  Delivered luminosity so far ~1.7 nb^-1 for STAR and PHENIX
  and ~0.6 nb^-1 for BRAHMS and PHOBOS.
 This is already ~20% of the minimum luminosity goal.
 
- Our typical ZDC rates at the beginning of store ~6-7K Hz.
  "The store of the week" was on Sunday afternoon: 15KHz
  at the beginning of the store.
 
- Store length is fixed at 5 hours for now. This is not so unreasonable
 since the lifetime of the Cu beam is longer than Au.
 
- Beam Experiment tonight (1/18): 10 pm-6am
  followed by a maintenance day.
  18 hours (6am 1/19 -12am 1/20) for STAR
  10 hours (6am 1/19 - 4 pm 1/19) for the others.
 
- Beam/Luminosity development during the day time 
  for 9 am - 5 pm  at least until next week. 
 
JH
