  19   Sun Feb 25 15:14:54 2018 Thomas Chillery, Lizeth Morales, David RapagnaniSetup - Beam Tuning and Prepare Chamber for Measurement at 3.45MeV 7Li - Morning of 23rdOn the morning of 23/02/18 we aimed to
complete beam tuning of 7Li at 3.45MeV.

At 8:43 CHUP = 7.2e-6mBar, CHDW

We expected this to be easier now the rogue
mylar is removed from the beamline.

morning at 8:25 the pressure reads:

Up = 1.5e-5 mBar and Down = 4.0e-5
