| Status | Ready for LHe transfer. MC(Cernox) = 77.47 K, up from 77.24 K yesterday after pumping out the exchange gas. |
| 0850 | Trap warmed to room temperature over night. open V3, the volume increased by 70 mBar. |
| 0900 | Use scroll to pump out the trap. |
| 0910 | Refill the cold trap. |
| 0925 | Close valves and stop the scroll. Reinsert the cold trap into the LN dewar. |
| 0930 | Check leak rate from the IVC. Switch from turbo to LD. Reading 1.5e-8. Switch back to turbo. |
| 1100 | Begin LN blowout. math bath inlet pressure: 2.5 psi + atm . LN is coming out. |
| 1113 | took out the copper coil pipe on the Helium exhaust line for Mark to fix the leak. |
| 1115 | LD reading stably 1.5e-8 leak rate. |
| 1134 | Saw e-3 level leak after halfway past initial blowout. Suspect leak is from the lower indium seal. Prepare to warm up. |
| 1140 | Collect mix back to dump. |
| 1140 | change MB fill port with a rubber stopper (lightly tapped to relieve pressure if needed). |
| 1200 | Introduce N2 gas into the OVJ, to 22 mbar. |
| 1230 | Introduce N2 gas into the IVC, to ~230 mbar. |
| 1255 | MC at 79.7 K, still 77.2 K. Assuming 0.2 K/min (aggressive), we will reach 250 K in 14 hours. 300 K in 24 hours. |
| 1400 | MC(Cernox) = 93.67 K, warming at 12.48 K/hr. |
| 1525 | MC(Cernox) = 110.1 K, still = 111.7 K. |
| 1530 | start cryocleaning. |
| 1750 | start collecting the mix back to dump. |
| 1800 | leak check the new pressure gauge by spraying helium around. |
| 1830 | LD baseline: 3.6e-7; spray helium all over the new MXP pressure gauge and then the vacuum manifold. peak leak rate is 4.9e-7. looks good. |
| 1900 | secured dump. took out cold trap to warm to room temperature overnight. |
| 1900 | MC(Cernox) = 150 K; still = 156.3 K. |
| 2350 | MC(Cernox) = 190 K; still = 200.4 K. |
