Replaced grid containing ring (target side) with new ring. No contact between target and anode measured in lab.
NOTE: While closing up the VCR fittings the tube rotated causing the tube to flatten in a bend. This may reduce water flow on the heat shield circuit.

Found some water tripping in front of the high voltage power supplies rack from the water lines at the ceiling. Plastic sheets have been put on top of
the racks and MCR has been informed. |

The current at the magnet power supply TMS:MB1 shows fluctuations every 1-2 minutes. The same can be seen in the Hall probe read back and in the beam
current at Fc6. |

A big vacuum excursion tripped the source off at about 1am. The vacuum did not fully recover afterwards only down to about 1.3e-6T. Ne leak has been
closed and vacuum went down to 6e-7T within a few minutes. After the trip the current of the magnet stayed constant. Fluctuations may have been caused
by high voltage sparks. |

A new turbo has been installed. Eddie said the other one had crashed but not catastrophically. He recommends the test stand
be wiped clean before pumping because there is a fine layer of Aluminum dust on the chamber base.
