7.3 The Source Runs<br />
layers <strong>of</strong> plastic bags <strong>and</strong> black felt to prevent light from entering. It cannot be excluded<br />
that the direction was turned a little bit during this procedure.<br />
- When pulling up the lever arm to measure <strong>of</strong>f-axis-points, the vertical part <strong>of</strong> the steel<br />
rod was no longer perfectly vertical, but slightly tilted. This introduces an additional<br />
uncertainty in the position.<br />
Due to these effects, the relative error in the nominal position is estimated to be<br />

very short runs to verify the source position). The coordinates x, y, z are given in cm, relative to<br />
