MCR resource needs are probably one console, and this study looks much like parasitic work. This subject probably requires a dedicated setup including a special Tandem and TtB as well as Booster changes, some of which may not be ppm. MCR requirements are high, but this would be the only game being played for a few shifts, so the resources are available. This puts Tandem into a ' chopping' mode, which rules out the physics program. Once set up, the switch back to physics and forth to chopping is quick.
Data taking for one setup also can be quick.
However pulse stealing is not an option since the Tandem chopping controls are not ppm. This continues to be an exploration of our capabilities for this sort of measurement. The motivation is intensity and reproducibility B RHIC . The motivation is intensity i.e. RHIC .
