Emittance meter number 2 ready for beam shortly - installed and pumping down.
No beam found by Thursday evening, but beam seems to be coming out much differently than last time. Will check on emittance meter functionality and try to re-tune later.
Ramping things down for the next couple days.

Source heating ramped back up, everything back on. Will try to straighten out steering then see if I can get things back in the previous positions.

Nothing seems to be working, will vent the beamline and remove the slit.

Apparently closing the valve started a vacuum leak that tripped everything in the source. I noticed within the first minute and ramped everything back up, maybe too quickly....
Have now put everything in a holding state, will resume tomorrow.

Found everything off again this morning. Ramping back up in the hopes that I can get something done before the whole system trips again. The trips look like water leaks again.
Uninstalled the slit and left it in the bottom of the vacuum box. Swapped the window to the computer side for convenience. Seal on the other side on the CF flange is a bit weird, not sure if it is in properly...

Still no beam. TISA emittance FC won't come back on, so waiting for Mike Rowe to troubleshoot on Tuesday. Will ramp things down all the way, since I expect the vacuum to trip the source before I need it again.

Found some beam, but looks really weird, like it is cut off. Good enough. Ramped everything down. |
