for the CW laser injection into the cavity,
yet to be installed

on a strange mode in the cavity (we call
it mode, but not sure what it is ??)

On Monday with Daniele,

we
did full characterization of amplifier beam
@ 10% amplification, adjusted the telescope

to lock the cavity, but the alphanov amplifier
did not turn on because of an error in MMD3
