Hi Ray,

It sounds like a very reasonable plan to me. I cc: to the sphenix-magnet mailing so that people may comment if they want.

Hi Kin,

The leak seems to be about 6” down the tube. It is not repairable without a disassembly. I propose that we close up the vacuum vessel to pump down on it over the weekend. Next week we will do a pressure leak test and come up with an accurate leak rate. A decision can then be made where to go next.

Regards,

Ray
