Yesterday Ronic and I worked on the high laser power measurements with the Vertical set-up of the Focus Tunable Lens. We went upto 38W@4 dpt at the begining and then also changed the focal power at 38W.

Observation:

1. We observed nice rings @38W 4dpt, maybe it hits some optics we have to check.

2. We also observed flactuations of power for two adjacent index of the beam profiler when we increase the laser power, which we need to understand.

3. We could see that the vertical deformation is not present for this set-up, we could remove the effect of gravity by this set-up.

This morning FP Laser was operating well locked at 30 KWatts in stable vay.

There are some fluctuations due tu pointing instabilities probably dues to temperature fluctuations in de bunker.

In the attacced picture are reported the lock parameters and signals.

By adjusting the position of laser caviti length the lock old all de morning.

Last monday with Victor we have cheked the stability of de pointing of the laser FP.

The climatisation was operating since 3 days in satble way. The laser pointing was very stable before to inejct in to the cavity (picture 1) and also for the reflexion from the cavity (picture 2).

That means thant it is necessary to have a stable climatisation operation.
