Operations Q&A

by Matthias Scholz (MXL (XFEL))

Wednesday 19 Feb 2025, 11:00 → 12:00 Europe/Berlin

BKR (Building 30)

Topic: Q&A session concerning XFEL Operations. No question will remain unanswered 😀

Topics 

• Apple-X undulator errors during photon energy scan  -> can now be reset by xfeloper as well. No need to call undulator on-call expert. 
• The default gun pulse length is 610 us. This ensures a useable gun pulse length of 510 us with two beam regions. This number is communicated to XO (XFEL operations group in Schenefeld) and they figure every week how many bunches respectively what share of the effective pulse length can be scheduled for the individual instruments. 
• XWiki: All documents and pages concerning XFEL operation have been migrated from Confluence to XWiki. Please ensure that you can access the necessary pages (blog, procedures, trainings) with your account. 

 

It would be great if you could make time to come to one of these meetings.

I would also like to point out once again that you are welcome to contact me at any time if you have questions about XFEL operations. I am also happy to sit down with you and discuss individual details if this will help us with the operation of XFEL. Don't hesitate, I'm looking forward to it!
