# Check Task D<strong>at</strong>e Done<br />
1 go after Rootsblower => Bruce has to be contacted again, and again,<br />
and again. Rootsblower never worked. Totti found old rootspump –<br />
exchanged the oil. Tests where made. Of no use <strong>for</strong> N2. For He it<br />
might makes a difference – we couldn’t see any improvement <strong>for</strong> He<br />
either on 7/20/2009. Pump stored in Storage2.<br />
2 two convectrons have a problem: Check is needed (replacement).<br />
Totti is on it. We have two working controllers and one broken<br />
one. We need a salvage meter <strong>for</strong> the broken one (they don’t<br />
make them anymore)<br />
3 we need a drill and a stand <strong>for</strong> the workbench and a little vice <strong>for</strong> the<br />
moveable workbench => Totti starts looking. Done.<br />
4 electron detector needs new pl<strong>at</strong>es => Reinhard will supply a new<br />
stack. Frankfurt people will bring it to the beamtime. We will also need<br />
two ceramic rings and an MCP holder. Totti asked <strong>for</strong> th<strong>at</strong>: Answer is<br />
“Yes”. We get a complete new Hex detector. Totti will bring it.<br />
5 decoupling box has grounding/noise problem: Needs test and debug.<br />
Tim is building a new set + anode decoupling boxes with b<strong>at</strong>tery packs<br />
(<strong>for</strong> MISTERS)<br />
6 controller cart should be replaced by a 8020 design: Markus. The big<br />
Helmholtz coils powersupply will go in a separ<strong>at</strong>e cart. Christian took<br />
over. Parts are ordered and arrived (Dec. 2008). Christian puts it<br />
together. (almost) done 1/8/09 (see task 178 below)<br />
7 new coils + powersupply (=> Totti started to look around): Needs<br />
planning, designing and construction. We will wait till Markus shows<br />
up here. Got powersupply from 88: Mike Bell and Steve Cooper work<br />
on safety (Totti). Coils: Markus is on it; hopes to finish with design by<br />
Oct. 15 2008. Design finished in Nov 08 and 8020 parts are ordered<br />
and arrived. Still <strong>at</strong> the safety guys (April 2009). Mike Fahmie (x4030)<br />
is in charge <strong>for</strong> all safety issues and the final ok. Coils can be wound<br />
starting first week of May 2009. Mike Bell will design holding pl<strong>at</strong>e and<br />
connections until this. Coils are finished with winding in 77 (7/14/09).<br />
Connections (pl<strong>at</strong>e) is still missing. Done (8/01/2009)<br />

8 differential pumping stage: New tube (8 x 120mm ?) => Tim’s baby.<br />
Sun took over. Ken is machining parts<br />
9 repair of powersupplies, HP voltmeter, fast amplifier and CFD (Lothar<br />
will repair the CFDs once he is here): Totti is on it<br />
10 <strong>for</strong>m<strong>at</strong> d<strong>at</strong>a analysis computer, reinstall and get all the software<br />
running again => Totti will get in contact with Jim and work on it: Done<br />
11 a new 800 l turbo pump <strong>for</strong> <strong>COLTRIMS</strong> chamber is needed: Shim<strong>at</strong>su<br />
Totti: Seiko Seiki pump is repaired in time – we will use th<strong>at</strong> while we<br />
wait <strong>for</strong> the new pump<br />
12 leak test <strong>for</strong> source chamber would be nice. No leak from outside;<br />
micro leak is between last valve and chamber flange.<br />
13 check all ion gauges. They are all functioning (as well as the<br />
controller). Some filaments might be burned – so we might not have<br />
two everywhere. Sun and Totti<br />
14 marks <strong>for</strong> beamline 11 are needed => Totti will get in contact with<br />
Hendrik, Tolek and Mary (survey group). Hendrik contacted me: They<br />
will talk to the survey group but we have to check again. Scheduled <strong>for</strong><br />
January 30 th 2008. Done – marks are on the floor, but it is not clear<br />
how far the beamline has to be rot<strong>at</strong>ed.<br />
15 a new adapter flange chamber-to-differential-pumping-stage with<br />
bellow would be nice: Needs ideas and discussion. Tim found better<br />
design and is on it<br />
16 make jet-dump tube moveable => Totti has an idea. Sun is<br />
constructing. Ken is on it<br />
17 <br />
cooling of jet is mysterious: Wh<strong>at</strong> should we do ? Markus. Project<br />
postponed (new cold trap with copper rod might solve the problem)<br />
Cold trap is bad; only -115°C on copper wire, 10 cm behind trap. Most<br />
likely connection between wire and trap itself. => new trap, may be<br />
with complete rebuild of jet system<br />
18 a Drytel <strong>for</strong> the differential pumping stage is needed: Discussion open.<br />
Sun borrowed one from ALS<br />
19 a <strong>for</strong>epump <strong>for</strong> the <strong>COLTRIMS</strong> chamber is needed : Discussion open.<br />
We use a Scroll pump from ALS vacuum people (signed out by whom<br />
?)<br />

22 We need a little stronger powersupply <strong>for</strong> the rainbow coils: Done by<br />
Totti<br />
23 We need a ruler on the exit slits inside the chamber: We have to find<br />
something made out of Aluminum. Sun did it<br />
24 We need two R<strong>AMOS</strong> boxes in lab 102 => Totti: Steve is on it and<br />
gets back to us. Outlets are installed.<br />
25 SAFETY: There are still chemicals in the lab: Wh<strong>at</strong> should we do ?<br />
Totti contacts Jerry….<br />
26 2 digital Frankfurt r<strong>at</strong>emeter desirable: Totti emailed to Reinhard and<br />
Lothar. Answer is “NO – not now”<br />
27 Exchange 3-fold SHV feedthrough with 4-fold SHV feedthrough: =><br />
Hunt <strong>for</strong> good one (1E-9Torr). Totti found one – hopefully it works.<br />
Sun mounted it. Gives good vacuum.<br />
28 SAFETY: Fasten the chamber to the ground. Totti: In progress…<br />

system of lab 102<br />
31 Think about the use of a hex det and a 120mm <strong>for</strong> BL 10 experiment:<br />
Hex Det = Yes. Detectors have to be set-up (put together and look <strong>for</strong><br />
wiring). We have to find out how the 80mm detector can be mounted<br />
to the big spectrometer and how to lift the spectrometer or <strong>setup</strong> the<br />
big spectrometer<br />

33 We need an efficient beamdump <strong>for</strong> 30 to 55 eV photons (Woods<br />
Horn): We will mount a 6in bellow <strong>at</strong> the exit of the chamber. Support<br />
rods were constructed by Totti and are in the machine shop. We need<br />
a good stand <strong>for</strong> the 6in pipe then (found something made out of<br />
steel).<br />
34 Spectrometer has to be simul<strong>at</strong>ed and designed: Need in<strong>for</strong>m<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

6 New controller cart needed (8020): Markus. Christian took over; parts<br />
are ordered and arrived (Dec. 2008). Some parts are still missing and<br />
have to be ordered. Stuff arrived. Christian puts things together. Alupl<strong>at</strong>es<br />
<strong>for</strong> the top and bottom are designed and have to go into the<br />
machine shop. They are now mounted. Frame is rein<strong>for</strong>ced. Still some<br />
brackets are missing. Feet got altered (4/12/09). Got plexi glass lips<br />
on top. Frame is assembled. First modules went in (5/1/09). Feet are<br />
ready to be <strong>at</strong>tached (5/19/09). Modules have to go up to make a<br />
complete unit fit <strong>at</strong> the bottom (6/2/09). Folder boxes needed <strong>for</strong> safety<br />
and emergency shutdown list: Totti ordered something and mounted it<br />
(6/9/09). Labels on Power cords are needed. Power has to be<br />
redistributed evenly. Brackets are needed to <strong>at</strong>tach chain <strong>for</strong> seismic<br />
safety (chains and quick connectors have to be found and cut: Totti<br />
found something <strong>for</strong> a start). Totti did it (6/4/09). Totti ordered double<br />
8020 brackets <strong>for</strong> feet and installed them 9/18/09.<br />
91 Aluminum pl<strong>at</strong>es (mesh-holders) <strong>for</strong> spectrometers need holes and<br />
threads to take detector + new Aluminum arms are needed (to replace<br />
the broken ones; done by Felix). Markus; scheduled <strong>for</strong> end of Nov.<br />
Still have to go in the machine shop. Done<br />
92 <br />
93 <br />
SAFETY: Complete check on all regul<strong>at</strong>ors <strong>for</strong> all gases and pressure<br />
ranges: Markus + Christian; scheduled <strong>for</strong> Dec. => Regul<strong>at</strong>ors <strong>for</strong><br />
flammable gases (H2, CO, CmHn) tested and ok (3 x 60 psi, 2 x 600<br />
psi); Rare gases, N2 (4 x 60 psi, 1 x 1200 psi). Have couple of broken<br />
or unknown ones (will repair when needed). Look out <strong>for</strong> spare one<br />
with high pressure (1000psi, rare gases). Good regul<strong>at</strong>ors are labeled<br />
now.<br />
New/big coils may need new 8020 arms (longer and perhaps<br />
stronger): Totti (has to wait on Markus to finish designing and<br />
construction of the coils first; 8020 profiles are available and need to<br />
be cut then). Checked: Old arms do the job<br />
94 Check LEMO, BNC, SHV cables, Ts, barrels and adapters: Markus +<br />
Christian. SHV and Lemo cables, Ts and adapters checked and bad<br />
ones rejected<br />
95 Check the anode cylinders + new (universal) voltage divider or b<strong>at</strong>tery<br />
boxes are needed (perhaps with potis). Think of 6 SHV connectors…:<br />
Josh and Felix are on it. They put voltage divider in cylinders – works<br />
well…<br />
96 New voltage divider boxes are needed <strong>for</strong> the detectors (to have potis<br />
would be nice): Felix is on it<br />
97 2 more decoupling boxes <strong>for</strong> the spectrometer are needed: Felix is on<br />

98 Moveable Scintill<strong>at</strong>or going inside the spectrometer of any size has to<br />
be constructed (<strong>at</strong>tached to the chamber – not to the spectrometer):<br />
Totti started looking around. Josh is building the support arm – did not<br />
work; needs improvement: Totti took over and reconstructed some<br />
parts and made a new rail system. Parts are ready, installed and work<br />
“ok” (not perfect). Push-pull and 4xSHV feedthroughs got switched.<br />
Arm <strong>for</strong> front phosphor is adjusted. Phosphor or Szintill<strong>at</strong>or is still<br />
missing and Vacuum test is needed (Markus)… See 138<br />
99 Nozzle was clogged – we cleaned it but a jet test is necessary:<br />
Markus. Nozzle is free – cooling remains a problem<br />
100 <br />
SAFETY: Pumps on wheels: Get rid of the wooden boards (fire<br />
hazards) and replace with Aluminum: Markus + Christian; projected <strong>for</strong><br />
January 2009.<br />
101 Measure the convectron gauges: There has to be 20 Ohm between<br />
pin 1 and 2 (if not it is likely to be broken). One can clean a convectron<br />
with Alcohol or Acetone cautiously<br />
=> moved down<br />
102 We need a new MCP holder <strong>for</strong> 80mm pl<strong>at</strong>es th<strong>at</strong> fit the 120mm Quad<br />
Anode plus a ceramic ring with a big copper pl<strong>at</strong>e/ring on the front to<br />
compens<strong>at</strong>e fringe fields (recoil det): Markus, Sven and Ottmar<br />
103 Electronic Rack: Rack blower in the middle has a damaged fan on the<br />
right. Replace. Totti looked <strong>at</strong> it and cleaned a little with pressurized<br />
air. Does not run gre<strong>at</strong> but is ok <strong>for</strong> now.<br />

105 SAFETY: We need more little electronic boxes with grounding (robust<br />
style): Load Resistors, Voltage divider (<strong>for</strong> Grid or Copperpl<strong>at</strong>e)…<br />
Especially 1:10 and 1:20 voltage divider are needed <strong>for</strong> monitoring<br />
Voltages up to 1000 or 2000 V (Totti got input from EM shop: SHV-<br />
Banana is not available – voltage dividers with output of max 100V are<br />
okay in order to bring it to BNC). Totti ordered 20 boxes (<strong>for</strong><br />
<strong>COLTRIMS</strong> and MISTERS). Christian will build them and is on it.<br />
Almost finished – tests would be desirable.<br />
106 Decoupling boxes need mechanical support: Christian + Totti. 4<br />
pieces are machined in the shop <strong>for</strong> <strong>COLTRIMS</strong>. If it works we will<br />
order 4 more <strong>for</strong> MISTERS. Totti gave drawings to Rene. Christian will<br />
order threaded rods and nuts.<br />

107 Check the very short SHV-SHV cables <strong>for</strong> damage: They are poorly<br />
made – very unreliable. Complain <strong>at</strong> EI shop (see 94): Markus +<br />
Christian. 4 SHV bad cables found (still working, but plastic insul<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
<strong>at</strong> connector damaged) => put in “useful broken cable”-box<br />
1/30/2009<br />
108 Manifold: Replace one valve with a lockable one. Totti did it. 8/15/2008<br />
109 Phosphor: Front phosphor was weak and peeling off in vacuum (too<br />
much glue ?). Totti spoke to David K. about flaking phosphor: We<br />
made the layer too thick. He will help with air brushing phosphor on<br />
glass pl<strong>at</strong>es – Totti and David did it. Small Phosphor or Scintill<strong>at</strong>or <strong>for</strong><br />
spectrometer arm is still missing – Totti did it. See also 123 and 138<br />
92 <br />
SAFETY: Check regul<strong>at</strong>ors <strong>for</strong> leaks and appropri<strong>at</strong>e range (high<br />
pressure). Markus + Christian<br />
111 Rods <strong>for</strong> anode cylinders are still missing. Ken is on it. Totti will check.<br />
Done and installed. Needed rewiring. Test would be good…<br />
112 SAFETY: Check crane post <strong>for</strong> missing screws. Replace broken<br />
brackets. Totti did it – not all the screws are in but it seems ok.<br />
113 SAFETY: Check crane wheel <strong>at</strong> the tip. Totti did it and gener<strong>at</strong>ed a<br />
required crane log book<br />
114 We need a NIM-NIM power cable – 10 feet long<br />
115 Oil <strong>for</strong> the small 4 turbo pumps needs to be ordered from Pfeiffer:<br />
Totti. Ordered 8/20/09. Arrived 9/3/09. Inserted 9/8/09.<br />
116 Redesign MCP Holder pl<strong>at</strong>e <strong>for</strong> Hexdetector and Quad 80 (similar to<br />
DLD120). Markus; will be finished by end of Oct. Still in machine shop.<br />
(Jan 2009)<br />
117 Ion Gauge in Source Chamber: Replace broken filament (David K.<br />
might help us out). New filament available in ALS shop ($70) but we<br />
might be able to use a filament from the old ion gauges. Totti did it,<br />
see below.<br />
118 SAFETY: Replace the 30 year old ion gauges with new ones. Cables<br />
to connect to the old controllers have to be fabric<strong>at</strong>ed though (EM<br />
shop). Totti is on it and bought 3 gauges. Gauges are installed and the<br />
broken one is repaired with a filament of an old ion gauge. NOTE: We<br />
are not oper<strong>at</strong>ional because of the cables! EI people will order 4 “pigtails”<br />
and modify our old cables. Work in progress. Done – test needed<br />
(Markus who has to per<strong>for</strong>m the vacuum test: 1/16/09 test done –<br />
cable were wired the wrong way by EI shop). Now everything is ok.<br />

Convectron gauge in Manifold has problem: Try to readjust or replace.<br />
Markus + Christian; starts with 17 and 123. Oct. 15. => Manifold<br />
convectron gauge shows right pressure.<br />
120 Repair Phillips CFD 715: Center channel jumps in time (seen on<br />
computer, it is not a cable delay problem). Give to Eric Henson. Totti<br />
did it<br />

121 Repair Ortec 441 R<strong>at</strong>emeter. Give to Eric Henson. Totti did it 8/15/2008<br />
122 Powersupply of Helmholtz coils: Display is broken; maybe more. Give<br />
to EM shop. Totti did it. Back from repair. Should work.<br />
123 Open the jet which got clogged during summer beamtime: Clean the<br />
nozzle. Get new Swagelok filter. Remove mesh in front of nozzle !?<br />
Totti prepared dismount of turbo pump. Markus + Christian. Markus<br />
cleaned nozzle and put stuff back together. Jettest and vacuum test<br />
(also of the phosphor feedthrough) is still needed. First test gave<br />
factor too small rise in jetdump. Reopened and reduced the distance<br />
to skimmer from 11 to 5 mm. Now jet is working fine (no new filter was<br />
implemented though).<br />

124 Check all 5 NIM bins (each slot) <strong>for</strong> voltages. Totti did it 8/16/2008<br />
125 Pin <strong>at</strong> 120mm quad anode fell off. Solder…. Totti did it 8/16/2008<br />
126 Re-center the Chamber on the frame. Adjust the little frame <strong>for</strong> the<br />
differential pumping stage. Totti did it<br />
127 SAFTEY: Earthquake brackets <strong>for</strong> Chambers in 102 and 104 are not<br />
safe. Redesign needed. Totti did it – prototype will be made by Rene.<br />
Prototype is now revised. Rene is making 12 stereotypes. Done and<br />
installed<br />
128 Harddrives in d<strong>at</strong>a acquisition and d<strong>at</strong>a analysis computer have to be<br />
replaced. Perhaps order four 500 GB HDs (check if BIOS would be<br />
happy with th<strong>at</strong>). Think of the possible options. M<strong>at</strong>thias ordered HDs<br />
and they arrived. However, there are not mounted yet. Markus will<br />
replace some: see 148.<br />
129 Monitor of d<strong>at</strong>a analysis computer has a problem. Might be still under<br />
warranty. Totti is on it. Sent it out <strong>for</strong> repair. Came back and was also<br />
broken. Send out again. Came back and works.<br />
130 SAFETY: Multiple outlets near w<strong>at</strong>er lines (within 6 feet) need plastic<br />
box: Totti did it<br />

131 SAFETY: As found during summer beamtime lid needs support<br />
threaded rods (+cylinders with delrin ends) to take the load in case we<br />
open the chamber and work under the lid: Markus. Rods were<br />
designed and machine in cooper<strong>at</strong>ion with machinist (Rene Delano)<br />
and engineer. Parts in machine shop. Only 3 instead of 4 rods were<br />
done. Test needed. Done: 3 rods are strong enough.<br />
132 SAFETY: We have to find a way to get the LN2 out of the trap fast<br />
and safe in case we have to open the chamber: Sun will ask Frank<br />
Zucca. Markus will sketch a delrin lid with inlet <strong>for</strong> pressurized air and<br />
an outlet <strong>for</strong> LN2 (+ pressure relief valve maybe). Totti took over:<br />
Sketch was presented to Jim Floyd. He will think about it and get back<br />
to us… Vacuum cleaner in combin<strong>at</strong>ion with dewar might do the job.<br />
Lid <strong>for</strong> dewar was constructed and machined with Rene (safety<br />
aspects taken into account). Vacuum cleaner war ordered and arrived.<br />
Test with w<strong>at</strong>er worked ok. Test with LN2 failed: The hose was too<br />
small. Totti “organized” bigger hose (LN2 certific<strong>at</strong>ed) and insul<strong>at</strong>ed it<br />
with foam. Test was positive. Rene makes new handle. Done – will<br />
work.<br />
133 Jetdump endpl<strong>at</strong>e and nut have to be milled down to gain some<br />
clearance between the spectrometer and the Jetdump: Totti made a<br />
drawing. It is in the machine shop. Done and installed. Jetdump tube<br />
needs adjustment: see 137<br />
134 SAFETY: Electronic rack has a broken wheel. Needs replacement<br />
wheels (with brakes). Chamber wheels don’t look so well either (Totti<br />
replaced them)… Markus; order goes out with 6 and 7. Markus and<br />
Christian replaced the wheel.<br />
135 D<strong>at</strong>a acquisition computer has a driver problem with the DVD writer. It<br />
can not burn DVDs. Totti tried to upd<strong>at</strong>e the driver (but there are no<br />
newer versions out there) and upd<strong>at</strong>ed NERO. Still no success. Help<br />
from somebody else is needed. M<strong>at</strong>thias did it: Cable was loose due<br />
to transport<strong>at</strong>ion from and to the ALS.<br />
136 SAFETY: ALS wooden roll stoppers need rubber pads. Sun ordered<br />
parts. Totti cut rubber pads and improved 30 wooden brackets (we are<br />
out of rubber pads and silicon glue again). Sun ordered more.<br />
137 Jetdump tube in Jetdump-cylinder needs adjustment. Markus +<br />
Christian + Sun<br />

138 We need 5mm wide and 5cm long glass pl<strong>at</strong>es <strong>for</strong> the phosphor and<br />
help from David Kilcoyne with airbrushing. Totti ordered new glass<br />
cutter. Sun cut the class pl<strong>at</strong>es. Totti and Sun will approach David and<br />
Hendrik. Phosphor is on pl<strong>at</strong>es (thanks to David). Pl<strong>at</strong>es were tested<br />
<strong>at</strong> HH Laser in 458. We saw something and taking in account th<strong>at</strong> this<br />
was 10Hz it might work <strong>at</strong> the ALS. Totti remains skeptical…<br />
139 Helmholtz Powersupplies need place to store them. Ask in building 2<br />
and so on…: Markus. One powersupply (800 A / 20 V) got stored in<br />
storage (warehouse). No place <strong>for</strong> the PowerTen powersupply has<br />
been found yet (Feb. 2009). Put Powerten Powersupply in the back of<br />
building 7 and labeled it 9/30/09.<br />
140 SAFETY: New Helmholtz coils need save cable and w<strong>at</strong>er hose<br />
connection. Plastic box is needed or similar. Markus will check back<br />
on EI shop. => Plastic box is fine, still waiting <strong>for</strong> official safety<br />
inspectors (April. 2009). M. Bell: “No w<strong>at</strong>er leak detection needed but<br />
flow controller is desirable” (March. 2009). Temper<strong>at</strong>ure sensor would<br />
be a good idea as well. Mike Bell took over. Done 7/31/09.<br />
141 SAFETY: Administr<strong>at</strong>ive lockout procedure <strong>for</strong> gas manifold + labels +<br />
swagelok cap are needed. Rene put cap on a chain, Totti made Alu<br />
labels and wrote the admin. Procedure (which was <strong>for</strong>warded to the<br />
ALS safety staff by Dec. 18). Input from Donna Hamamoto and Will<br />
Thur are expected <strong>for</strong> January 2009. No feedback to two more emails<br />
– case closed <strong>for</strong> now.<br />
142 Ne spectrometer has to be simul<strong>at</strong>ed (Allen) and constructed and<br />
fitted to the chamber + the right offset flange has to be found and<br />
mounted (Markus).<br />
143 SAFETY: Portable box with Personal Protective Equipment <strong>for</strong> the<br />
ALS beamtimes is needed (containing gloves, earplugs, earmuffs,<br />
glasses, goggles…). Totti and Sun put something together. Wrong<br />
earmuffs were delivered (RMA in process). Box still needs some<br />
labels about the contents on the outside (Totti did it – waiting <strong>for</strong><br />
Earmuffs: Sun got them).<br />
144 Spare blue HP NIM bin with broken 12V and a silver Tenelec NIM bin<br />
with broken 6V was found <strong>at</strong> salvage area. Totti gave it to Eric Henson<br />
(who is in the hospital <strong>for</strong> some weeks) <strong>for</strong> repair around Dec. 18 and<br />
Jan. 22/08. Eric is out <strong>for</strong> a couple of months (3/31/09). Eric is back<br />
but hasn’t started yet (9/10/09). Totti picked them up and brought<br />
them to the ALS (3/21/10).<br />

ordered (CO lecture bottle UHP, Neon bottle 80 research grade)<br />
146 CF150 cross with turbo pump has to be mounted on recoil ion side.<br />
Markus<br />
147 8020 support of differential pumping stage is weak. 1530 Profiles<br />
would be stronger. Totti ordered some stuff from 8020 (9/10/09).<br />

149 Attaching hex80 to 80 Spectrometer has to be solved. Markus has an<br />
idea and designs parts.<br />
150 SAFETY: Quartz glass protection cover <strong>for</strong> CF40 glass flange on<br />
Jetdump. Markus got one.<br />

End of 2-Bunch-Run 3/2009<br />
151 SAFETY: Thin green grounding cable on chamber frame (electron<br />
side) needs to be replaced + there is another one with a loose<br />
connection <strong>at</strong> the lug. We need more grounding cables as back-up<br />
Christian + Totti replaced the bad and three short ones 3/26/09. We<br />
now have some short spares (not really good ones). It’s still a good<br />
idea to have about 5 good spares (AWG14, 1.25m long or so). Totti<br />
took care of it.<br />
152 SAFETY: Chamber needs motorcycle jack or something like th<strong>at</strong> to<br />
position it while it is elev<strong>at</strong>ed Totti thinks of transfer pl<strong>at</strong>es from<br />
McMaster instead. Ordered. Is in 77 <strong>for</strong> welding (5/12/09)… Parts are<br />
done (5/21/09). Test needed with new electronic rack <strong>for</strong> instance.<br />
Have to wait on Christian to finish it first. Test done (5/22/09). Will<br />
work but we need scissor jacks to stabilize chamber and take the<br />
weight once we put the pl<strong>at</strong>es under the feet. Totti ordered two jacks<br />
(arrived 5/26/09). Put a box together with transfer pl<strong>at</strong>es and scissor<br />
jacks (under the workbench). Depending on the height of the chamber<br />
wooden blocks might be needed too – we should look out <strong>for</strong><br />
something (building 7 and 79).<br />
153 SAFETY: Last lockable valve on manifold was missing: Totti ordered<br />
it; arrived 3/11; replaced it + changed admin lockout procedure.<br />

154 SAFETY: Anchor bolts in 102 were pulled out of the floor. Totti filed in<br />
work order 3/18/2009 and got in contact with Monroe Thomas. Hope<br />
to get got more help <strong>for</strong>m James Mankini… Mankini contacted Fred<br />
Angliss (he will stop by 4/1/09). Steve Cooper stepped in and<br />
contacted Tom Reese: Deeper drilling is necessary. Th<strong>at</strong> requires<br />
floor scanning. Steve Cooper arranged <strong>for</strong> floor scanning (4/1/09). The<br />
scanning report will be sent to James Mankini in the near future <strong>for</strong><br />
completion of the drill permit. In the meantime Fred Angliss took a look<br />
<strong>at</strong> the floor and concluded the following: A) the wrong anchor bolts<br />
were installed (they were not in agreement with his calcul<strong>at</strong>ions). B)<br />
The concrete is busted <strong>at</strong> two places, thus the tiles should come out in<br />
order to take a closer look. C) He recommends replacing all 8 anchor<br />
bolts with 3/8in HILTI KB-TZ, 2.5in embedded. The tiles have to be<br />
removed wherever the concrete is busted in order to conclude<br />
(together with Fred) if a deeper drilling would fix the problem or if the<br />
concrete needs to be fixed first (Carpenters do th<strong>at</strong> 4/2/09). Totti<br />
moved the chamber <strong>for</strong> this purpose. Tom Reese will then send<br />
somebody to take all 8 anchor bolts out. Done: Anchor bolts installed<br />
by carpenter (Warren Elliot). Chamber back in place.<br />
155 SAFETY: Main grounding cables have to remain with frame, pump<br />
cart or electronic rack. Totti put labels on except controller cart (we<br />
wait <strong>for</strong> the new cart here – done: Totti put label on 5/28/09)<br />
156 Electronic/Detector tests: a) test new decoupling boxes and voltage<br />
divider, b) lens potis, c) spectrometer voltage dividers, d) old<br />
decoupling cylinders (150 Ohm, contacts, cable configur<strong>at</strong>ion…), e)<br />
fast amplifier (need labels <strong>for</strong> polarity, amp. Factor) Christian.<br />
Everything soldered and ready to be tested 7/10/09 (we need a<br />
detector and spectrometer in vacuum). Done<br />
157 Spectrometer voltmeter (on the right hand side of the rack) has bad<br />
switch: fix it Totti. Took the front panel out and filed the slot <strong>for</strong> the<br />
button a little bigger. Works better but not gre<strong>at</strong>.<br />
158 MISTERS decoupling cylinders have to be modified as a back-up<br />
Christian. Done 7/10/09. Test is still needed.<br />
159 We have to buy more meshes (80%, 200 micron). We lost 7 sheets<br />
Markus. Quote requested (4/14/08). Ordered (4/20/09). Arrived and<br />
cut. Stuff was pretty crumpled on roll. Loss is estim<strong>at</strong>ed to 50%.<br />
Markus complained <strong>at</strong> TWP Inc. but they don’t care…<br />
160 We need a KF, CF and screw supply suitcase <strong>for</strong> the beamtime. Totti<br />
found something 3/25/09. Nuts & Bolts supply is fine. We need more<br />
supplies to fill the CF/KF suitcase. Totti bought some stuff, but KF25<br />
o-rings are missing <strong>for</strong> instance (ALS shop is out of it)… got some<br />
4/14/09. We now have the minimum equipment.<br />

161 SHV-whip needs new label Totti did it. Decoupling boxes and<br />
cylinders + voltage divider need labels and drawings etc. Markus did it<br />
162 D<strong>at</strong>a analysis computer is getting too slow: We should use Sun’s or<br />
M<strong>at</strong>thias’ computer. Ali offered his PC and Monitor… We will use<br />
M<strong>at</strong>thias computer as analysis computer. Needs re<strong>for</strong>m<strong>at</strong>ting since it<br />
is fubar software wise. With IT service (8/24/09). Totti brought it back<br />
from IT service and <strong>setup</strong> the accounts and put IT security software<br />
on it (8/31/09). Needs ROOT, PAW, COBOLD, Background, R<strong>at</strong>e<br />
Alarm, Backup Programs, Compiler, Origin, GS, Acrob<strong>at</strong>… Totti<br />
started putting stuff on 9/17/09 (Cobold, Background, R<strong>at</strong>e Alarm,<br />
Backup Programs, GS, PAW, ROOT, Compiler). Totti moved<br />
computer to 2-102 and put it in gear 9/23/09. Markus put more<br />
programs on it 3/10/10<br />
163 Work on Jet: Cooling (new coldtrap), nozzle cleaning or new nozzle<br />
design. Jet test with Roots pump <strong>for</strong> He (it might help) Markus. New<br />
nozzle and holding parts designed and in machine shop with Rene<br />
(4/9/09). First approach (using old coldtrap). New coldtrap is designed<br />
and in machine shop with Rene (4/21/09). CF35 pipe was ordered<br />
and arrived (4/29/09). Filter and gold gasket brought from Frankfurt<br />
(6/03/09). Everything put together 7/13/09. Jettest on 7/14/09 without<br />
and with Roots Forepump. Analysis of the results shows th<strong>at</strong> rootspump<br />
does not help. Per<strong>for</strong>mance with respect to the old design =<br />
??? New coldtrap is still in shop and needs to be mounted (8/2/09).<br />
Totti and Rene decided on the length and welding procedure of cold<br />
trap. M<strong>at</strong>erial got ordered. Totti spoke to Bob Conroy how to <strong>at</strong>tach<br />
the copper braid. Rene drilled the holes in the rod and in the newly<br />
designed clamp. Rene points out th<strong>at</strong> knife edge on CF100 flange is<br />
not wonderful – could be polished !? Copper bottom and CF100 top<br />
flange is done. Next step: Cut the stainless tube by 6.5mm, weld cold<br />
trap (Rene). Weld copper braid to clamp and rod (Bob) 10/29/09.<br />
Copper rod + braid + clamp done and shaped down. Coldtrap<br />
completely welded 11/20/09. Resistor needs to be <strong>at</strong>tached and<br />
jetflange on chamber rot<strong>at</strong>ed + new gas inlet + makeover of rainbow<br />
coils (see 198).<br />
164 D<strong>at</strong>a acquisition computer needs recovery Markus brought it to IT<br />
Service 3/20/2009; we might need to replace the harddrive. Totti<br />
picked it up. New Seag<strong>at</strong>e HD was installed. Upd<strong>at</strong>ed XP, Symantec<br />
and Spybot + defragmented C and D drive. Got rid of Spybot and<br />
Symantec and put Sophos on acqu. and analysis computer.<br />
165 New 120 spectrometer (copper pl<strong>at</strong>es + drift tube needed) Markus.<br />
Spectrometer parts and det. mounting in machine shop. Alu pipe<br />
ordered and arrived (4/29/09). Parts are in machine shop: copper<br />
pl<strong>at</strong>e in 80, drift tube etc. with Rene… Core is assembled by Christian.<br />
Drift follows… Resistors connected (06/25/09), Drift still missing. Done<br />
7/10/09 (incl. mesh in front of Recoil Ion Det).<br />

found – some need testing (see 175). Need to order 8020 parts: goes<br />
out with stuff <strong>for</strong> Christian <strong>for</strong> cart (4/24/09). Assembled (5/5/09).<br />
Vacuum test needed. Vacuum is fine (7/14/09)<br />
167 Rail <strong>for</strong> phosphor screen needs makeover Totti took it out of the<br />
chamber and brought it to the machine shop. Rene is on it 3/30/09.<br />
Totti fi(l)ne tuned the rail system and did a first adjustment. Should<br />
work a little better now. Totti noticed th<strong>at</strong> the black handle <strong>at</strong> the end<br />
got loose a little bit and tighten it again using both little setscrews<br />
(weak point)…<br />
168 One more layer of phosphor on the glasses would be nice Totti +<br />
David. More tests in the meantime shows th<strong>at</strong> it works the way it is <strong>for</strong><br />
now<br />
169 SAFETY: CSD guest procedure, Gasmanifold, JHA, AHD, OJT,<br />
Emergency Shutdown <strong>List</strong> have to be in place Totti (is in contact with<br />
Tracey Bigelow from HR; goes very slowly). Looks like EID can be<br />
issued perhaps 2 to 3 weeks in advance. PGI <strong>for</strong>m has to be filled out<br />
be<strong>for</strong>e by every guest by all means 4/14/09. W<strong>at</strong>ch out: There is a<br />
new PGI <strong>for</strong>m (un<strong>for</strong>tun<strong>at</strong>ely write protected). Because of th<strong>at</strong> and a<br />
missing internet interface <strong>at</strong> CSD we go via ALS again. We added a<br />
new AHD like document <strong>for</strong> people to read be<strong>for</strong>e they work with the<br />
<strong>COLTRIMS</strong> appar<strong>at</strong>us. The <strong>LBNL</strong> JHA system will face an overhaul<br />
within 6 to 12 months. We have to wait <strong>for</strong> this outcome.<br />
170 Apertures insets <strong>for</strong> slits in chamber needed Markus made one.<br />
Daniel may makes a better version (no not really).<br />
171 Program <strong>for</strong> autom<strong>at</strong>ic Backup (like FileSync) is needed Christian<br />
installed it. It should be implemented in the red background box. Totti<br />
put something together <strong>for</strong> coltrims/lbl and local account…<br />
172 Spectrometer simul<strong>at</strong>ions <strong>for</strong> He experiment Markus is on it. Done:<br />
Total spectrometer length 1.5 m<br />
173 SAFETY: Noise exposure in labs 102 and 104. Totti is in contact with<br />
Herb Toor and Rich Mc Clure from facilities <strong>for</strong> tests (Herb will show<br />
up in 104 Mar. 23; <strong>for</strong> 102 we have to give him a holler once the<br />
appar<strong>at</strong>us is running again). According to Herb: no probs (72 to 77db)<br />
in 104 and 106. Herb stopped by July 14, 09 to check the noise level<br />
in 102. It came out to 79db, which is no problem.<br />
Herb measured the compressed air nozzles (9/24/09). The have<br />
100dB – thus hearing protection is highly recommended. Totti put<br />
warning signs in the three labs.<br />

174 Get quote <strong>for</strong> modifying CF200 pipe by adding 2x CF35 flanges (77<br />
machine shop). Markus: 1000 $. Different solution found (see 175).<br />
175 Check recycled vacuum parts (bello and CF200 spool) <strong>for</strong> recoil ion<br />
spectrometer arm with Frank Zucca. Markus. Equipment is <strong>at</strong> pl<strong>at</strong>ing<br />
shop <strong>for</strong> UHV cleaning (4/21/09). With Frank <strong>for</strong> UHV test (4/24/09). 2<br />
out of 3 bellos are okay (bad one has label).<br />
176 Get compass to check magnetic field orient<strong>at</strong>ion of Helmholtz coils.<br />
Markus. Ordered <strong>at</strong> McMaster; arrived – is in toolbox<br />
177 SAFETY: New Controller Cart needs seismic safety <strong>at</strong> least <strong>for</strong> 102.<br />
Totti made drawings <strong>for</strong> the 8020 feet like <strong>at</strong> the chamber and gave<br />
them to Ken Shiler (5/28/09) – done (6/9/09). We need a unistrut bar<br />
and two long threaded rods <strong>for</strong> the ALS. Totti found unistrut bar and<br />
rods + nuts and washers (5/28/09). Bar and Rod need to be cut. Totti<br />
cut everything and assembled a bracket and labeled it (5/29/09).<br />
Christian needs to <strong>at</strong>tach 8020 brackets <strong>for</strong> <strong>at</strong>taching a chain (see 6):<br />
Did it (6/4/09). Totti found chain and quick connectors as well as<br />
shackles and bolted on some 8020 brackets: Might work – need<br />
second opinion (6/3/09). New McMaster feet and threaded rods have<br />
to be ordered – done and installed (6/18/09). Brackets are ready to be<br />
drilled to the floor – need to know position first (have to wait on<br />
Markus and Christian). Totti is in contact with Fred Angliss and James<br />
Mankini. Fred Angliss approved 3/8" Hilti HIS inserts with RE-500<br />
epoxy and 3/8" A193 grade B7 threaded rods installed with a hammer<br />
drill and carbide bit in accordance with ICC ESR-2322 (see<br />
http://www.icc-es.org/reports/pdf_files/ICC-ES/ESR-2322.pdf) and<br />
special inspection during install<strong>at</strong>ion. Contact Johnny Johnson x5371<br />
to schedule the inspection. Position <strong>for</strong> cart found and marked. New<br />
floor scanning is needed (HIS inserts go 5 in deep) – done 9/10/09.<br />
Monroe Thomas asked <strong>for</strong> Drill Permit. Monroe also has the epoxy<br />
glue which is needed <strong>for</strong> the HIS inserts (9/17/09). Everything drilled<br />
and glued 9/24/09. Totti and Rene drilled 0.5in holes in the brackets –<br />
everything fits.<br />
178 SAFETY: Totti got copper grounding pl<strong>at</strong>e from Steve Cooper <strong>for</strong> the<br />
new controller cart (7/14/09). Christian will get screws and mount it:<br />
Done. Diaphragm pumps need good grounding cable: Done. Strain<br />
relief on one pump and plug on the other one have to be fixed: Still<br />
has to go to Steve Cooper. Christian brought both pumps to Steve<br />
(8/20/09). Totti got them and reinstalled them in the cart.<br />

179 (8/2/09) Ion getter pump <strong>at</strong> BL 11 has to be moved out of the way.<br />
Talk to Hendrik. Totti + Markus + Support<br />
9/29/09 Remind Hendrik again end of November, begin December<br />
(Shutdown in December). Totti writes email to Hendrik & Tolek<br />
10/28/09. Did it: got positive reply on this.<br />
12/07/09 Ion getter pump will not be moved away, but whole chamber<br />
disconnected from beamline. Center pipe will also be dismounted.<br />
180 (8/2/09) BL 11 needs glass valve <strong>for</strong> speeding up alignment process.<br />
Talk to Hendrik. Totti + Markus + Support. Bruce Rude has thicker<br />
glass window <strong>for</strong> VAT g<strong>at</strong>e valve to comply with safety standard. Tony<br />
Warwick has to be contacted and involved <strong>for</strong> the safety issues <strong>at</strong> the<br />
ALS. Totti spoke to Tony and Jim Floyd: No radi<strong>at</strong>ion problem just<br />
mechanical stability. Bruce Rude can give us the right window (he<br />
also has the tool to mount it). Totti writes email to Hendrik & Tolek<br />
10/28/09. Did it: got neg<strong>at</strong>ive reply on this. Wh<strong>at</strong> now ?<br />
= moved down<br />
181 (8/3/09) the new Helmholtz coils need two separ<strong>at</strong>e w<strong>at</strong>erlines to be<br />
reserved <strong>at</strong> BL 11. Talk to Hendrik. Totti + Markus + Support. Markus<br />
let w<strong>at</strong>erlines hanging <strong>at</strong> BL. Totti put remark on beamtime<br />
prepar<strong>at</strong>ion list (8/25/09):<br />
http://amo-csd.lbl.gov/downloads/Checklist%20<strong>for</strong>%20Beamtime.pdf<br />
182 (8/2/09) New Helmholtz coils need fix<strong>at</strong>ions: 8020 clamp on top and<br />
8020 (with brackets) <strong>at</strong> chamber frame (left and right post). Totti +<br />
Markus. 8020 brackets determined to be 5.5in long. Totti found 8020<br />
m<strong>at</strong>erial, cut it and mounted the pieces. We need to order brackets<br />
and plastic end caps from 8020 plus more Velcro straps from<br />
McMasters… (8/26/09). Totti orders from 8020. Markus orders from<br />
McMaster (9/10/09). 8020 arrived 9/19/09. Totti put plastic caps +<br />
brackets + velcro on 9/23/09. Test mount 8/25/09: works<br />

183 (8/2/09) New Helmholtz coils need makeover: Connectors, tie raps, …<br />
8020 arms need en<strong>for</strong>cement on the top part. Totti cut the w<strong>at</strong>er<br />
hoses short. Totti ordered some 8020 stuff – 9/10/09. 8020 stuff<br />
arrived and Totti put brackets on arms (not recommended to open)<br />
9/18/09. Totti cut plastic hose and put the screws on the Coils. Totti<br />
flipped the 8 Alu brackets to reverse up and down 9/21/09. Arms and<br />
coils were aligned and test-mounted 9/23/09. Totti and Markus put<br />
sleeve (McMaster 1459T17) around the power supply cables 9/24/09.<br />
6 feet are missing. Markus orders more… W<strong>at</strong>er hoses were cut short<br />
9/30/09. SAFETY: Need new cover (Totti got rid of the sharp edges of<br />
the interim cover). More sleeve arrived and Totti put it + low profile tie<br />
wraps + yellow tape on the cables <strong>at</strong> the power supply and the coils.<br />
Totti fixed the loose clamps on one coil 10/6/09. Markus designed<br />
cover and ordered m<strong>at</strong>erial; stuff is with Ken Shiler. Totti got parts and<br />
gave it a shot – doesn’t fit; brought it back to Ken Shiler. 10/28/09<br />
Covers are back. Totti found screws and assembled everything. Fits,<br />
but we need to close the big holes on the bottom. (Old covers are kept<br />
as spares in storage 2). Totti came up with sketch. With Ken Shiler<br />
10/29/09. Cover is done and fits 11/10/09<br />
184 (8/2/09) New controller cart should have rot<strong>at</strong>able wheels on backside<br />
too <strong>for</strong> better maneuverability. Markus will order from McMaster<br />
(30305T811); ordered 8/24/09. Wheels arrived and Totti mounted<br />
them 8/26/09.<br />
185 (8/2/09) 70l turbo pump (Alc<strong>at</strong>el) needs new place/mount <strong>at</strong> chamber<br />
frame (8020). Totti came up with idea and brought sketch + turbo +<br />
8020 (60x60) to Ken Shiler (8/26/09). Parts done 9/17/09. Totti got<br />
them and installed everything on <strong>COLTRIMS</strong> frame. Shorter KF25<br />
hose + curve and longer KF40 hose needed. Totti got everything and<br />
installed it.<br />
115 (8/2/09) Oil change <strong>for</strong> turbo pumps after beamtime (also the big<br />
guy?): Totti. Ordered <strong>for</strong> the 4 small turbo pumps (8/20/09) – the big<br />
guy looks ok, but second opinion is needed. Arrived 9/3/09. Installed<br />
by Totti (9/8/09).<br />
186 (8/2/09) Grounding pl<strong>at</strong>e on one side of the frame has to be moved to<br />
the other corner. Longer grounding cable desirable. Put back the<br />
grounding cable borrowed from MISTERS. Markus (8/26/09). Totti<br />
removed the grounding pl<strong>at</strong>e from inappropri<strong>at</strong>e position (pushed<br />
upwards and flipped to the inside) – 8/32/09.<br />
187 SAFETY: (8/2/09) more and longer plastic exhaust hoses are needed<br />
(order <strong>for</strong> MISTERS as well). Markus. Ordered. Arrived 3/9/09. Totti<br />
cut it and installed KF flanges.<br />

NIM rack (“Requires separ<strong>at</strong>e Fuse”); @ fan in controller cart (“start<br />
fan be<strong>for</strong>e switching on the controllers”) and fans in NIM rack. Totti did<br />
it (8/24/09).<br />
189 (8/4/09) Bring back Alc<strong>at</strong>el turbo pump to Frank Zucca after run.<br />
Markus<br />
190 (8/13/09) Transport<strong>at</strong>ion cart <strong>for</strong> new Helmholtz Coils needed. Markus<br />
put it together. Needs some more parts - Ken Shiler is on it (9/3/09).<br />
Markus put it together 9/23/09.<br />
191 (8/15/09) All cables (Lemo, BNC, SHV, controller cables) need check<br />
<strong>for</strong> bad shielding etc.<br />
=> moved down<br />
192 (8/15/09) Storage and Backup solution needed <strong>for</strong> analysis and<br />
backup PC’s (+ Server). Totti found “StarTech.com 3.5in Silver 4<br />
Drive eSATA Multi Raid External Hard Drive Encl.” in eBuy (CDW-G).<br />
Will order 2 of them after input from Frankfurt experts (Till + Jan).<br />
Ordered two towers (incl. controller card) plus one additional controller<br />
card (8/24/09)<br />
Parts: StarTech.com 3.5in Silver 4 Drive eSATA Multi RAID External<br />
Hard Drive Encl, Mfg. Part: SAT3540ER, CDW Part: 1584610,<br />
UNSPSC: 43201802, Hard drive array - 4 bays ( SATA-300 ) - 0 x HD<br />
- Serial ATA-300 (external), $226.00<br />
1 Port PCI Express es<strong>at</strong>a II controller card, StarTech.com ID:<br />
PEXESATA1, $23<br />
Stuff arrived and has been tested (9/4/09). Works fine <strong>for</strong> the most<br />
part. The SiI Manager software on the computer with the non original<br />
controller cart did not see the storage tower device. Totti called<br />
startech and fixed it (see below).<br />
If there is trouble with the non original controller card and “SiI<br />
Manager 4726” software download the l<strong>at</strong>est software from<br />
http://www.startech.com/. Search <strong>for</strong> Product “SAT3540ER” on the<br />
upper right hand of the webpage, download and unzip. Deinstall old<br />
drivers and manager software. Reboot. Then go “start”, “settings”,<br />
“control panel”, “add new hardware” and browse <strong>for</strong> the new “*.inf” file<br />
of the download while installing the driver. Then install new manager.<br />
There is a folder called “SAT3540ER” on the c:\ of TWeber-x09 with<br />
the files. (controller card can stay installed in the computer while doing<br />
all th<strong>at</strong>). [Altern<strong>at</strong>ive suggested by Startech support: PEXESATA2 as<br />
controller card instead of PEXESTA1; it runs the Sil3132.]<br />

196 11/17/09 Fast Lothar NIM CFD’s need test <strong>for</strong> time jitter or walk<br />
problem according to Markus’ analysis. Markus runs test and is in<br />
contact with Lothar – might exchange or repair them over Christmas.<br />
Lothar things it was a bad walk and threshold adjustment. No test<br />
were done.<br />
197 <br />
12/15/09 Look <strong>for</strong> CO and order, also talk to Donna. Markus ordered 2<br />
midsize bottles. Bottle arrived and is outside building 7 (locked).<br />
Bottles labeled<br />
and put in ALS gas storage.<br />
198 12/15/09 Resize Helmholtz cage after moving? May be needs to be a<br />
little bigger. Markus: New Cable/Clamps and Rods are ordered and<br />
arrived. Cage posts need to be further apart + old and new rods need<br />
to be cut + install new cable. 1/7/10 Totti made new stand-offs in<br />
machine shop and mounted them. Exchanged Al rods <strong>at</strong> the vertical<br />
side. New horizontal rods need to be measured, cut and mounted:<br />
Done 1/8/10. Florian and Totti adjusted height (1/20/10). Florian and<br />
Irina installed computer cable. Resistance checked. Should work.<br />
Some cables still need to be fastened to the frame.<br />
199 <br />
12/1/09 CO spectrometer simul<strong>at</strong>ion: Design is almost finished<br />
(12/20/09). Drift tube needs to be cut + tapped holes <strong>for</strong> feet installed.<br />
CF 150-250 Adapter is needed. 8020 support <strong>for</strong> CF250<br />
spool needs<br />
to be built. Check CF250 spool (is out of the dumpster). Markus brings<br />
hexanode and mesh from Frankfurt. Totti borrowed 13 ¼ to 8 in flange<br />
(Frank Zucca) and 13 ¼ to 2 ¾ flange (Eli Rothenburg); a second 13<br />
¼ to 8 in flange would be better – got it from Bruce Rude (1/14/10).<br />
Florian and Markus build spectrometer and fitted it into chamber<br />
(3/10/10)<br />
163 12/1/09 Jet cooling still needs to be put together and tested. Gas inlet<br />
is missing. Glands have to be ordered and welded to new stainless<br />
steel tube – Glands arrived 1/710. Florian brought it to 77 (1/22/10).<br />
Parts came back and were installed. Leak found on nozzle to copper<br />
block connection (insert was tightened). Works but no big<br />
improvement <strong>for</strong> cold jet (-125C <strong>at</strong> Nozzle, -153C <strong>at</strong> Coldtrap Copper<br />
rod, ideal would be -196C).<br />
200 1/19/10 D<strong>at</strong>a acquisition computer crashed with blue screen<br />
and was<br />
unstable after reboot. Totti imaged oper<strong>at</strong>ing system to a new<br />
harddrive with IT service and exchanged SATA cable.<br />
201 1/26/10 Connectors <strong>for</strong> 12pin feedthrough (anode) and perhaps <strong>for</strong><br />
SHV feedthroughs are needed. Florian found pins <strong>at</strong> http://www.multicontact-usa.com<br />
– part-number 41.6000, type B1-TH (1/26/10).<br />
Orderd and arrived. Florian made new cables<br />

coils, Helmholtz coils, floor and perhaps a pump if loc<strong>at</strong>ed<br />
underne<strong>at</strong>h. Foam or w<strong>at</strong>er collector is needed. Markus ordered three<br />
sponges and some absorbent m<strong>at</strong>erial (3/5/10) . Test needed.<br />
Absorbent m<strong>at</strong>erial didn’t help much. Totti installed some sponges.<br />
Test needed (4/2/10)<br />
203 <br />
New spectrometer pl<strong>at</strong>es m<strong>at</strong>e from phosphor bronze – ordered <strong>at</strong><br />
McMaster. They were supposed to be fl<strong>at</strong> (not from a coil), but have<br />
still been curved too much. Even with putting <strong>for</strong>ce on the mounted<br />
spectrometer stack, the<br />
distance between two pl<strong>at</strong>es can exceed 30<br />
%. -> Don’t take phosphor bronze from McMaster <strong>for</strong><br />
spectrometer pl<strong>at</strong>es!!! Markus<br />
