Status Update: VTX Detector Maintenance and System Tuning - Jan 25, 2011

On January 25, 2011, Takao Sakaguchi reported successful maintenance efforts on the VTX strip-pixel detector, fixing the west half during the last access with approximately 10 hours of work. The second half is scheduled for next week. Current issues include an incomplete heater repair in the gas mixing house and persistent gas mixing problems on chilling days, which require assistance. Adjustments to gas flow are scheduled for access tomorrow. Most subsystems are timed, with ongoing scans for the newly installed detector and final tuning of the ZDC HV.
