Cavity 1
Limited by max single DecaRad 01 head < 10,000
* I had not realized DecaRad 9 exceeded 10,000 mR/hr until cavity 2 testing concluded
Start GLOS = 2.69
Start GMES = 17.7
Ramp up GLOS = 3.44
Ramp up GMES = 22.3
DecaRad 01 = ~9360
DecaRad 09 = ~12,224 (highest)
Cavity 2
Limited by Admin Limit GMES < 24 MV/m
* I had not realized DecaRad 10 exceeded 10,000 mR/hr until the test began
* Levels reduced quickly once the test began, my hope is that the DecaRad did not become saturated
* DecaRad 10 < 10,000 once cavity 2 = 18.2 MV/m

Field Emission Measurements 2L23
Cavity 1: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching. Missed the "config decarad" step...aborted and started again at 21 MV/m.
Cavity 2: Quench >18.9.
Cavity 3: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching.
Cavity 4: Quench >12.7
Cavity 5: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching.
Cavity 6: Quenches above 20.6 MV/m.
Cavity 7: unable to raise gradient much above 20 despite increasing GLOS. Starting at 20 MV/m.
Cavity 8: Started at 24 MV/m
Operator SIGN IN
Field Emission Measurements 2L05
Cavity 1: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching.
Cavity 2: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching.
Cavity 3: Cavity quenches above 19.7 MV/m (GLOS=3.75)
Cavity 4: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching. Field emission < 10 mRem/h
Cavity 5: Started at 21 MV/m without quenching.
