Entry   Strange pulse behavior upstream XGM, posted by Faisal Hammad Mekky Koua on 17 Jun 2023, 07:41 Screenshot_from_2023-06-17_07-40-49.png
- Pulse intensity decreases drastically at XTD2 across the train

- the visualisation of our beam therfore needs to be compensated adjusting transmission

- beam shape and uniformity is different than previous days and it is unclear how much of this is related to real changes in the beam or an effect

Improved the alignment procedure:

Using the pin to make sure of the spatial overlap
SAXS signal is used to make sure
the pin is well centered on the X-ray beam path
YAG is only used in combination with ILM to fix with ~5 um precision the height of the beam
(moving CRLs on laser focus) and the temporal overlap.

Entry   SASE 3 background heavily impacts our focus, posted by Diogo Filipe Monrroy Vilan e Melo on 25 Oct 2023, 02:43 Screenshot_from_2023-10-25_02-21-29.pngScreenshot_from_2023-10-25_02-36-16.pngScreenshot_from_2023-10-25_02-37-38.pngScreenshot_from_2023-10-25_02-42-21.png
Attch 1: We were having trouble focusing at IRU chamber. After multiple attempts the best we could achieve was 2.9-3.1 um beam.

Attch 2: We then wanted to test if this was caused by the SASE 3 background, after them changing from >350 pulses to 1, we saw an instant
improvement of ~0.5um down to 2.3 um beamsize.
