The FNAL TeV Halo Meeting on July 3, 2002, reviewed vacuum conditions at F11 and their effects on proton halo losses in CDF. Prior to ferrite rod replacement, pressure and loss rates showed significant fluctuations with rising intensities. After replacing the ferrite rods, pressure decreased, stabilizing loss rates. Simulation results indicated average pressures were much lower than expected, and outgassing rates were about one-fourth of predictions. This suggests that conditions at Interaction Points are better than previously assessed, dispelling concerns about them being "hot spots" for poor vacuum.

F11 vacuum and CDF proton halo losses – store 1289 before ferrite replacement @ F11 pressure and losses rise and fall p intensity F11 pressure CDF PHSM CDF LOSTP
F11 vacuum and CDF proton halo losses– store 1486 after ferrite replacement @ F11 pressure reduced, no dramatic rise losses do not rise F11 temperature F11 pressure CDF LOSTP
D0 Pressure Profile FromMike McGee’s Simulation One half of IR D0IG01 pressure 2.4*10-9 torr Average pressure = 1.26*10-8 torr
CDF Pressure Profile FromMike McGee’s Simulation One half of IR B0IG01 pressure 2.5*10-10 torr Average pressure = 1.22*10-8 torr
D0 outgassing rate measured = 7.3*10-9 torr*liter/sec expected = 29*10-9 torr*liter/sec CDF outgassing rate measured = 7.1*10-9 torr*liter/sec expected = 29*10-9 torr*liter/sec Both outgassing rates 1/4 the expected rates
Summary • Replacing ferrite rods improved vacuum @ F11 and eliminated CDF proton loss bump • Expected average pressure @ IPs 1.2*10-8 torr • But, measured outgassing rates are 1/4 expected • Models are being reexamined • Vacuum at IPs likely better than initially believed • IPs are not “hot spots” of poor vacuum R.
