FACET Facility Performance
FY13
SAREC Meeting
Christine Clarke, 25th July 2013
2013 Schedule -- FACET User Run 2
FACET User Run 2 – A New Philosophy Part 1
Lesson 1: Experiments need different beam configurations
“Pencil Beam”
5e9 electrons/bunch, σz~600µm,
σr <20µm
FACET Run 2 was divided
into different configurations
and experiments were
scheduled according to
configuration that best
matched their request
Low Charge, compressed
1e10 electrons/bunch, σz~30µm,
σr ~30µm
High Charge, compressed
2e10 electrons/bunch, σz~30µm, σr
~30µm
High Charge, over-compressed/ 2 bunch studies
2e10 electrons/bunch, R56 10 mm, σr
~30µm

FACET User Run 2 – A New Philosophy Part 2
Lesson 2: The machine needs attention on a day-to-day level
Emphasis was given on not delivering a beam to users
that did not meet agreed-upon parameters.
Most of the beam time
was therefore used for
• machine
development,
• maintenance and
• characterisation
activities
These occurred every
day.

FACET Run Dates

High Charge
2 bunch
FACET Run:
•
•
•
•
Pencil Beam  3rd March – 24th March
Low Charge, compressed  24th March – 13th April
High Charge, compressed  13th April – 24th May
R56 10 mm and two-bunch generation  24th May – 1st July
High charge configuration was not scheduled initially
• First plan was to go from low charge and compressed bunches to 2-bunch
commissioning
• Introduced high charge configuration after success of low charge

Scheduling Experiments
https://slacportal.slac.stanford.edu/sites/ard_p
ublic/facet/user/Pages/Schedule.aspx
• Schedule was goal-driven (e.g.
“expose samples”)
• Typically focused on one
experiment at a time
• Not running experiments 24 hours
a day meant:
• Better support from facility
staff
• Better beam
• Time to plan

• Better beam made experiments
better
• Essentially no tuning time and
very little accelerator down
time – few interruptions
• Accelerator Operations team
characterised beam prior to
user shift
• Better SLAC physicist support

Experiment Procedures
• User productivity gained from
• Increased time between shifts
• Goal-based experiment shifts with a focus on getting
results
• Shift Procedures key to getting results
• Developed “template” over course of run
• Procedure for operators as well as experimenters
• FACET staff worked closely with users on procedures
Progress during User Beam time was reported on the FACET website
along with key beam parameters:

Accessing FACET
• Most accesses were scheduled
for experiment installation and
maintenance (~1 day per week)
“PAMM”
• A few accesses were
“unscheduled” (on user beam
time) due to hardware failures

Future Schedule - FACET User Run 3 and beyond
Current FY14 Plans
• Start FACET at beginning of next Fiscal Year (~October
•
•
•
•
1st) – after LCLS
Start commissioning of positrons from positron target
Set up electron beam for 2-bunch configuration in
Sector 20
- Primary users are PWFA and DWA studies
- Laser will also be operational
FACET will not operate over the Winter shutdown
FACET will restart ~1st February 2014
21
Goals for Future Operations
We want to maximise User Time whilst keeping productivity
high
• Grow our user base with new experiments
• More FACET staff to continue to work closely with users
In FY14, a greater proportion of beam time can be for users:
• Bulk of laser commissioning done- less time in access
required next time
• Beam configurations well understood and documented- less
machine development required to repeat them
