RHIC (see attached slides)

- vacuum issues at IP12, maybe able to wait until maintenance day

- STAR/sPHENIX blue backgrounds

- Th 8:00am test of 12x12 store for 1 h: add a bump and see if it goes away

- we then should monitor background counters

- Vernier scan

- preliminary: 6.5 barn (instead of 6)

STAR

- magnet chiller still has issue that requires future maintenance (waiting for extended downtime)

- but magnet is up for now

sPHENIX (see linked slides)

- crossing angle

- ZDC rate is low b/c of satellite bunches

- 56 MHz cavity will help eventually
