After the scan at 22:04 teh FCU new was new calibrated. For this MEdusa was stopped and reopened in the laser lab. This stops the Labview server, and as
a consequence the the connection to the MBS was lsot. Then, MBS needs to be restarted and the online data is cleared. Such an intervention should avoided
as good as possible.

6:30 Problem with ion source, on-call service is called
7:30 There is a short in the ion source and it needs to be changed. Expected down time about 2h
10:30 Ion source was successfully changed, but while ramping up the source a power supply failed. Next on-call service is on their way to GSI.

With reference to entry 37 Laser timing:
- at last 30 injections accumulation: 10k counts on particle detector (accumulated during manipulation until it saturates, e.g. no more Th in ESR)

Fri Jun 27 06:55:45 2025, Esther. Konstantin, Laser, Laser-ion overlap   
|
We cross-checked the laser-ion superposition by using the T-scrapers. We did it only after the scans in order to do not change the duty cycle by much. Attachements
are in the order of the measurements compiled in the table.
|
Fri Jun 20 15:58:21 2025, Wilfried, Konstantin, Simon, Laser, Laser stepwidth
|
From previous Bi-Beamtimes, we expect the width of the transition to be >50GHz (FWHM). The current step width is 0.002nm which corresponds to 8GHz, so the
laser would be in resonance for 6 steps.
We should aim for at least 5 steps in resonance.

We roughly adjusted the timing based on attachment 1, for ions to be in center of electron cooler (east arc), corrected for PMTs being 2.5m closer to the
north on the west arc
then did a new 30 injection accumulation (10.8k counts on particle detector) and readjusted the timing to fine tune this

We exchanged the old BBO of the Cobra's FCU with a new one. The output power of the Cobra was around 120mJ. In the end, we achieved a UV power of about
21mJ. In addition, we optimized the fiber-coupling to the wavemeter. |
