NMR and VI:
Leader: Devin
The NMR is used to measure the resonant EMF of the target. Labview VI's controls the components and readouts of the NMR.
Resources: UVA-NMR System Manual
Tasks include:
- Create a debugging setup.
- Better Documentation.
- Characterization of the Q-Meters.
- German Q-Meter.
Microwave, Magnet, and readouts:
Leader: Nisal
The microwave system is a 140 GHZ EIO tube that drives the polarization through the DNP effect. The Magnet provides the alignment and contains the fridge, which provides the cooling power to the target.
Resources: UVA CW Extended Interaction Oscillator (EIO), Oxford magnets
Tasks include:
- Connect readouts.
- Need a list of Readouts
Pump and cooling:
Leader: Sujan
The pump stack provides the high vacuum needed for the experiment.
Resources: good video for high vacuum, MVP 070, A 100L, CIT-ALCATEL, pfeiffer Okta 500, turbovac-361c, N0150
Task include:
- The Middle Backing pump control needs repair.
- Turbo needs a backing pump and sensor/readout.
- Flow monitors and Flow controllers need to be installed.
- NPT lower line needs to be planned and installed.
- The exhaust line needs to be hooked up.
- The pumps need to be bumped "Cycled on"
- BackFill manifold needs to be created and planned.
Liquidfer and Helium supply:
Leader: Jay
The QT system is what liquefies the helium recovered from the root exhaust, magnet boil-off, and separator.
Resources:
Tasks include:
- Connect the Recovery compressor to the Recovery line and Recovery Tank.
- Install fittings on the Recovery Tank.
- Install sensors according to the P&ID.
- Install purifier and Supply Line.
- Leak Check system.
- Pump and Purge.
- Pump Out system.
- Order enough Helium.
- Initial test of the system.
Target and insert:
Leader: Nuwan
The target is the core of the experiment and requires to be produced in the lab.
Resources:
Tasks include:
- Find and purchase a Test Gas similar to NH3.
- Produce a Stable Slug.
- Produce wafers that are stable.
- Repair the insert.
