- We ran beam for RadCon Surveys
- 300 kV beam on the dump!
- The laser variable attenuator is not working, so we started to steer beam through the viewers, but seems the beam is too intense.
- Yan steered the beam to the dump, which reportes 1.6 micro-Amps! This made the vacuum increase from 1E-11 Amps, to about 1E-6 Amps when the beam was at each viewer.
- Shukui has a plan to have full control of the laser output power and variable attenuator. It involves setting up a PC in the GTS, and a new ThorLabs variable attenuator wheel.
- First we ran at 275kV, then at 300kV, stable!
