  • Abstract
    During the RHIC sextant test in January 1997 beam was injected into a sixth of one of the rings for the first time. We describe the injection zone and its bottlenecks. We report on the commissioning of the injection system, on beam based measurements of the kickers and the application program to steer the beam
