 Title: KBox Alignment  

Starting with the alignment of the KBox using CW Koheras.

The size of the CW output from the collimator at 1 meter from is ~ 2.4 mm, to be adjusted with lenses to match the cavity !!! (attached image)

For the 2 alignment mirrors, I am only able to control 3 axes for now (motor issue for the fourth to be fixed !!) , Horizontal and vertical for Ma1 and Horizontal for Ma2(closes to injection window).

Started with only irises placed on both the M1 and M2. Placed a beam profiler at the window behind M2 to observe an output beam.

Motors position for the 3 axes and beam shape and position after M2 attached.
