Harder to quantify
no hard limits
Major worry is
activation of high maintenance components (e.g.
RF cavities).
Administrative
limit set at twice the total power loss during
messy stacking (for 9 times the
beam!!!).
If
we had to run tomorrow, we could deliver roughly 20% of the nominal MiniBooNE intensity under this scenario.
Steps are being taken to reduce beam losses and proton source consistency.
