Timeline of PS optics measurements in 2023

This page provides quick access links to logbook entries of relevant OMC shifts or measurements and MDs done on the PS in 2023.

Shift Categorization

The letters in the shifts column have the following meaning:

  • W = Weekdays (Day)
  • WN = Weekdays (Night)
  • H = Holidays or weekend (Day)
  • HN = Holidays or weekend (Night)

1 shift consists of an 8h period, so e.g. 0.5W means a 4h shift on a weekday during daytime.

We consider only the "productive" time for these shifts, i.e. time where the machine is in a stable state suitable for measurements, this is why the number might be lower than the time difference between start and end.

Hovering the column name will show a tooltip with more information.
