starting the beamline commissioning

In the Alba synchotron we are reaching some goals day after day. During this last years we have started up the linac, the booster and, this year, the storage ring. Also, this year, we have opened the frontend in some beamlines. Starting in march with Mistral's beamline, and the first x-ray light in Alba (a bit before in the diagnostics beamline with visible light), we continue opening 4 of the 7 beamlines at the end of May.

Today is the day to start the beamlines commissioning. During the day there are some hour planed to have machine physics and some hours planed to delivery beam to the beamlines:




Step by step, with a low current in the storage, we are opening frontends.
(The machine status is not yet public, like it's usual, we have to be happy with snapshots).


Update @ 20111019:
I don't have an snapshot of the machine status with more frontends open, but it's a thing of opportunity: to be looking on this application in the correct moment.




Update @ 20111024: The machine status can be saw from out side. But not yet searchable from google or the "search" in the cells website.
