Abstract:

This short note, created for a review for McGinnis, outlines the MTBF data for the Tevatron from January 1, 2003 to this week (March 15, 2005). Although there is some tendancy for failures in the Tevatron to happen close in time, the failures in the Tevatron are still roughly consistent with random failures. The reliability for the Tevatron at Low Beta is significantly higher than otherwise (55 hours vs. 15 hours).
