Stephane's note (updated on the 09/05/2025)
Jan, Daniele, Andreas, Aurelie, Chiara, Stephane, William

BSRTMB design followup:
Answer for space to go straight in the carrotage next Monday.
Idea to extract vetically the light instead H --> no need as we need a mirror for steering.
Should a test without covers along for the tunnel distance be done in ISR ?
Should the ECR started - not forgetting BSRTR
Preparation for test in ISR PSF with and without covers
Vibration testing in machine when running ! William contact D.Guinchard
Check if BSRTR fits in the not enlarged beam separation layout  

BSRT commissioning:
Simulation by Daniele to confirm the 200nm deformation creates exactly what we saw
Green laser alignment explained confirming the good alignment
BSRL status:
- New system: angular steeing of coupled lens+fiber to optimize the amplitude (previouly, detector was move in x and y)
- B2 new system works well with 30% coupling measured 
- B1 was 10% coupling and now is 80% after the intervention (Daniele + Andreas). Factor 100 is missing likely from backend equipment then
- From scan, now B1 seems more focused than B2 but lower signal still...
Next step: 
- Send known laser into both fiber and read TDC to define if the issue is on fibre or DAQ side
- Try testing green lasr and scan intensity with OD filters to check linearity
- Hardware (Miguel) will check the electronics splitter there

Pellicle beam splitter issue:
- Stephane broke the last 2" spellicle splitter
- Setup was replaced and improved
Buy:
2x 50/50 pellicle 3" + support for pellicles !
2x 3" 8/92 Plate beam splitter instead of pellicle type  
No need for 2" pellicle beam splitter anymore

BSRH update by Jan:
BSRT/BSRH splitter installed and Daniele is not complaining :D
-New FEC installed (cfv-us45-bsrhb2)
-- All basler (tgt) cameras moved to the new FEC
-- Main camera can run > 10Hz at FF (BTVDC deployed)
- Installation of a CM illumination under way (important for final focusing)
- Expert GUI now uses both RDA and JAPC for communication

- Sample data taking: 2/3% fluctuation --> improvement (intensifier)
- More tests explained and getting prepared
