Alcator C-MOD Weekly Highlights
				October 6, 1994

The maintenance/repair period is continuing this week. Excellent progress has
again been made on the tokamak re-assembly. 

The OH1 and OH2U coax busses were installed and torqued to specification. 
Following final inspection of these coaxes, the upper wedge plate was
installed. 

The upper radial TF magnet arms were then installed, and the spring plates,
used to maintain compression of the feltmetal in the sliding joints, were
installed at the top inner joints. The vertical TF arms were installed, and
the spring plates inserted in all the outer joints.  Inspections and testing,
including hi-potting were then carried out. The TF magnet assembly is now
complete.

A fitup of the EF coaxes and OH coax extensions was performed in preparation
for cylinder installation. Following final inspections, the outer cylinder was  
installed. 

All ten "teardrop" adaptors on the lower vertical flanges have been installed. 
Now that the cylinder is in place, installation of the horizontal port
extensions has begun. 

The bus tunnel, which had been pulled back during the machine dis-assembly,
has been moved back to its normal position. 

Dr. Edmondo Giovannozzi has started a three month visit at Alcator C-Mod from
the Frascati FT tokamak group. He will be working with Reich Watterson on
improvements to the calibration systems of the C-Mod Scanning YAG Thomson 
scattering Diagnostic.
