We called the BKR to ask what they can do about our pulse energy being 50% (~160uJ and slowly dropping) of what it was since we made our hutch intervention (with 0 bunches). BKR were asked to organise a time slot with PRC and the other instruments to make an intervention to try to increase our pulse energy.

We have one cell (CH4) which is low-Z and would require higher pulse energies for x-ray heating. We are flexible as to when this intervention happens this afternoon as in the meantime we can continue to work with other cells.
