Current Issues
The guaranteed user operation starts Tuesday at 7:00 and lasts until the following Sunday at 19:00.
Between 7:00-11:00 on Tuesday morning the machine is converted to the operating conditions for the user operation. Afterwards, beam line handlers have the opportunity to check their beam line until 19:00. If the conversion of the machine to operating conditions is finished before 11:00 beam line commissioning can start early. The same principle goes, if beam line commissioning is done before 19:00. In this case users can start early with their measurements.
Following the beam line time block on Sunday at 19:00 the machine is available for the acceleration team for characterizing and improving work. This is also true on Mondays. Furthermore, the Personal-Interlock-System (PIS) will be turned off every Monday of an uneven week in order to allow persons not professionally exposed to radiation access to BESSY II.
