Photomicrographs:
1) with mark up (or note direction of mark)
2) Include labels, sketch for very complex samplews.

Interference Fringes
1) note pressure
2) note index of refract.
3) include raw calcs

Index of Refraction

nd=30.4, piston side 16.7 large, 19.7 small, cylinder side 7.1 large, 3.7 small
based on optimising index to get correct foil thickness for both, n~2.3 or so but thicknesses get quite small, n~1.7 could be more accurate.

MgO
1.7 or 2.3 depending.

Beamline Analysis





Postscreening

aligned with respect to upstream camera image in elog (no downstream camera image available)→ flipped the cell (keeping the same orientation)

Photos with same attempted orientation:

c2c nd=30.9 on decompression, very close to HP value

assume other dimensions also not changing much

c2c distance unloaded 13 um
