AirFly Update 1

It's going to be a very long day today. I arrived at work around 6:30 am, and it looks like I will be here till at least 7:00 pm. We finally have all the allignment done, both for our beamline, and their external chamber. After lunch, we finally got our electron beam to pass through their chamber. We are now calibrating our signals and adjusting things here and there to improve the signal-to-noise ratio.

It's a tough, long day, but these are some of the nicest and wonderful people to work with. So even though the work is hard, I always have fun and interesting time working with them.

I'm guessing that the time we have left (they're here till end of Friday) might not be sufficient to complete all the intended measurements. So it looks like this project might continue into next year.

Zz.
