Handover notes

Please use this page to write up any notes on anything that needs to be passed on to the next observer or should go into the end of experiment message.

Notes should be placed below the horizontal line as a new blog entry.

Continuing problems should be copied to the Current Issues page.

**Template for Handover notes:**

Be sure to add any specific notes about the experiment if required, for example “Special back end configuration for x reason”. Put as much detail as you can - the more the better.

It is ESSENTIAL to put your name after EVERY entry. Copy and paste the template into the new handover notes

  • wind stowed from 2:42 - 4:59 UT scans(no0556,…. no0593) and from 05:20 - 6:32 UT scans(no0599,…. no0619 ) (Warren)
  • Wind stowed from 7:04 - 7:40 UT, scans affected: no0627 through to no0638 . (Patrick)
  • 1733UT - Noticed that receiver is hotter in both stages than it's meant to be. I don't think there's much to do about this until Brett comes in in the morning - leaving it until then. (Ellen)
    • 2130TU - Reported to Eric, he says they are not that bad but is running the vacuum pump anyway. (Ellen)
