  1. BLIP Operations 2-28-12 Status – running at 117.1 MeV@92µA Smooth operation at beam current reduced to 92µA weekdays and 60µA on weekends. Weekly operations for 165.5 hours. Issues Investigation into cause of water window failure continues. Transfer of failed component to hot cells for close inspection is scheduled for Thursday. Fabrication of spare water window started with modified design. We will utilize inconel 625 machined window welded to ss304 cap instead of welding ss304 sheet to ss304 cap. Inconel offers better strength and corrosion resistance. Diameter of cap will be reduced to ease installation and removal. This will help avoid splashing of radioactive water during removal. We still await delivery of AlBeMet vacuum window from vendor. .
