Commissioning and running of sPHENIX

[Jamie Nagle <jamie.nagle AT colorado.edu>]

Hello sPHENIX Collaboration,

sPHENIX is now in the third week of 2-person watch shifts with Maya Shimomura continuing an excellent job as Period Coordinator!
The detector is moving closer to being fully re-installed with the south INTT hookup complete and the MVTX re-install approaching.  Exciting progress on detector operation and performance evaluation using cosmics is being highlighted on many MatterMost channels.   Note that all detectors are still under expert control only.    Thanks in advance to our third set of dedicated shifters pictured below!

* We will continue with daily Shift Change Meetings (SCM) at 3:30 pm ET.    We have a daily google doc of notes and "plan of the day" linked from the run page.   The Zoom link for the SCM is also given at the top of the Run-2024 web page and repeated below.

Sincerely,

Jamie
