sPHENIX discussion of the superconducting solenoid

["Yip, Kin" <kinyip AT bnl.gov>]

Hi,

 

45 minutes ago or so, I showed Sonny Simaiuta and Joe Dambra where the half-rack was in Bldg. 912.  They have taken it to Superconducting Magnet

Division to make small modification.

 

I’ve just taken another picture this morning around the Magnet/steel box :

Apparently, the survey was taken late last Friday after the magnet was slightly rotated.  Now, we’re waiting for the survey group to analyze

the data.  Matt (who has been doing the analysis)  is out today and Frank Karl is trying to see whether he can do the analysis   or   they have to wait

for Matt to come back tomorrow.

 

Richard Meier was moving his cables.   I also saw that a carpenter was installing the railing for the platform (all in Aluminium) in the Lead-End.  

So, the schedule  that D. Phillips sent last Friday (below) seems to be materializing (though Dave is not here today).  Hopefully, the riggers and Ray Ceruti’s group can install the Extension this Wed.
