Photo of REFL port

The other day while Sheila and I were trying to fix the dying-POP-power situation, we opened the beam diverters to see if we could tell something about the alignment from the image of the REFL beam.  However, since we usually run with the beam diverters closed, neither of us could remember the precise shape and relative brightneses of the REFL beam in full power.  So, since data is currently being taken with the beam diverters open in NLN (non-observing), Cheryl and I took a photo!

Attached is a photo of the REFL beam on the upper of the 2 analog tvs in the front of the control room.  Currently, POP_A_LF_OUTPUT is about 16,200 counts, which is pretty normal, and corresponds to a recycling gain of a little more than 41.
