1. Vladimir praised good talks given by MikeM, JimS and Tan at the BD
seminar last week - people in the audience got an idea on
complexity of the Tev issues and our progress.

2. Short quiz on readiness of the PAC papers shown that most of the
reports are in good shape, while XiaoLong and MikeM are somewhat
backlogged due to other duties and mutiple papers to prepare. Situation
does not look too bad, though.

3. MikeM reported very good week : record peak luminosity of 42.35e30 in
store #2502, (record weekly integrated luminosity of 8.44 pb-1),
nevertheless - polarity switch card was not loaded and waisted one store,
tunes are not OK everywhere, proton injection efficiency reduced to 80%
from 88% two weeks ago, lose too many protons when open helix (before
turn the dampers On and drop C_v,h), good pbar lifetime at injection but
(new!-) poor lifetime right after initiate collisions, better p-losses at
CDF but higher pbar losses at D0. Tan and Jerry will look into
possibilities to turn dampers ON and drop C_bv,h before we open helix (and
thus save 5+% of protons).

4. Mike Syphers presented viable mechanism how uniformly distributed a1's
due to smart bolt movements can get us: problem is that skew quads
compensating this effect are not distributed evenly - 6 magnets around
CDF and D0 were taken out originally 48-elements T:SQ cuircuit and these
"holes" create upto 0.6 m vertical dispersion wave when T:SQ is used for
global coupling. Mike also shown that amplitude and pattern of measured
vertical dispersion are close to his calculations (under condition that
ops always tune the Tev to have min tune split 0.003). The effect might
contribute in the emittance blowup at injection and Mike pointed out how
we can use other skew cuircuits (SQA0, A4, B1, D0 and E0) to change the
amplitude of D_y at F0. Alvins' comment was that real Tev lattice is
somewhat different from ideal lattice in Mike's model. Alvin also
suggested to ask TD to explore how to fix smart bolt movements.

5. Vladimir compared spectra taken from "old" and "new" Schottky detectors
with uncoalesced protons in the Tev at 980 - tune lines coincide but
there're strange non-coincident lines in both detectors.

6. Vladimir and Bob Flora realized that T:SBDASS[2] and T:SBDAWS[2] report
bunchlength of uncoaleced bunch at 980. Looking back (analysing logged
data) they see strong logitudinal blowups of uncoalesced bunches at 980
(due to long damper??) - buckets become completely full and a lot of
beam goes out of buckets into DC beam. That explains recent quenches while
aborting  uncoalesced beam at 980.
