Status of cryostats and sample bottle progress¶

Sample bottles told us there was quite a lot of air in the bottle. In the end they attached an RGA directly to the cassette volume (limited to max 1e-5 mbar). Found that there was a lot of air. Could reduce this after many pump purges. Checked supply line which looked good. Next checked cry3 and found the same. Leak rate looks as expected. 13% nitrogen and 1% water found on Monday. Alan arrives tomorrow and will examine further.

Ideas: Heat cassette itself then flush gas through it. Flush with nitrogen not helium.

Helical Efficiency Improvements: AD and Round table discussion,¶

Adam now has all efficiencies above 99% and has found that by changing the algorithm this small amount does not include extra noise. He is now looking to see if this addresses the hole at pt=0. He is currently blocked by some stuff in Chris Hunts code and is hoping to have the release ready soon. This problem though does not appear to be affecting the validity elsewhere.
