Summary n CSNS running @20 k. W stably, opening to users from this month. The goal is have 50 k. W, 50% of the design goal, before next summer shutdown. n All subsystems of beam instrumentation perform well, we will keep improving and upgrading. n There is no non-invasive profile monitor at CSNS, a channeltron based IPM prototype is under study. 29
