Subject: 7105 GODL: Greenbelt, MD Engineering Testing


Dear Colleagues,

The MOBLAS-7 system, located at Goddard in Greenbelt, MD, is presently
testing a new Crystal Saturable Absorber that may serve as a replacement
to their current flowing laser dye cell configuration. This is a
possible future Engineering enhancement to all NASA systems, that will
reduce maintenance time and eliminate the need for the hazardous
substance, Monochlrobenzene. The new saturable absorber was installed
at MOBLAS-7 on September 12th, and an evaluation of data has revealed
slightly higher than normal RMS´s, but no biases. In recent days,
Engineers have been able to bring the RMS´s down to normal levels. All
data taken since September 12th will be released to the community, today
9/21/07, with a change in the configuration flag. Please be aware that
the saturable absorber remains in the system, and all data taken has
been with the new configuration. Please let us know if you have any
issues with this data.

Best Regards,
