  464   Mon Feb 2 15:29:45 2026 Ronic ChicheUnder Processinfolasers and opticsThomX iglooLaser Amplifier used at 70%today, I installed a laser dump just before
the telescope to avoid any high power (50W
instead of 17W usually) issue in the injection

probe (1:1000) on the AC-line to see if one
could detect a correlation between lock losses

so many locking issues... exactly
in the same way than before. :-(

is more and more unstable and the lock duration
was sometime less than 20-30 seconds !

Daniele to try to correlate the road traffic
in front of the Igloo with the lock losses

was the origin of this noise : some road

bad (maybe the worst ever seen), with a lot
of high frequency noise.
