The object of today's run is to examine the sensitivity of the Two Color Interferometer
to density perturbations and to characterize the operation of a gas valve on A-Side.
The valve has been measured to have a response time of about 16 ms. We will try to
establish a good baseline shot with a current flattop of 300-400 kA of greater than
200 ms duration. Line integrated densities should be smoothly rising during the current
flattop. Gas puffs will then be introduced to perturb this baseline. The amplitude,
length and frequency of the puffs will be varied to examine their various effects.
