  • progress
    • new cell and oven bottom piece (zhiwen)
      • the first cell is delivered at UVa, payment is made, Alan is working on oven bottom piece.
    • RTD reading (Jie)
      • RTD reading discrepancy is solved.
    • pulse NMR (all)
      • Zhiwen ordered necessary items and talk to Yuan Zheng from UVa. We will start with a simplified setup without the cross diode, potentiometer or mixer (maybe)
      • Chunhua did calculation for impedance matching , we will try to use our current capacitor/matchbox, refer to Polhe3_target_lab_howto#Impedance_matching
      • Jie is writing labview program for DAQ (Jie)
    • diffusion mode measurement (Chunhua)
      • We a test of NMR with different RF power and a calculation for H1 which completely destroy polarization is done. Diffusion_rate#test_RF_power
    • convection flow study (Zhiwen)
      • heaters and RTD are ordered, Omega confirmed that the heaters have no magnetic material. There's some concerns about RTP nickel wires. refer to Polhe3_wanted_item_list_2011_summer
    • temperature optimization test (Chunhua)
      • Chunhua confirm the fitting results are stable once the range is larger than 1.5*tau.


  • Calendar
timeline Tasks To be done by status
new cell and oven bottom piece

pulse NMR
7/21-8/17 record down the current NMR setup, rearrange it for pNMR setup. test the transmitter circuit and receiver circuit separately. combine them once "switch" arrives, Jie
7/21-8/17 find or make coil and test it with capacitor matchbox Chunhua
7/21-8/31 write labview program Jie
diffusion mode measurement
7/21-8/1 make a zapper coil or a pair of coils to confine field better Chunhua
7/21-8/1 do a test all
convection flow study
7/21-8/31 make a zapper coil or a pair of coils to confine field better Chunhua
7/21-8/31 test heaters once they arrive. do calibration on old and new RTD. install new RTD once they arrive. setup up the additional two RTD readout. connect RTD readout/control in labview Jie
temperature optimization test
7/21-8/1 redo 230 spin down Zhiwen
7/21-8/17 improve analysis, check fitting with error estimation and prepare plots for a note. Chunhua
7/21-8/17 water measurement all
transfer tube wall measurement
7//21-8/1 borrow Ultrasonic thickness gauge and do the measurement. Jie
