Taking scans from 0 to 10, 0 to 15, and 0 to 20. The power has been fluctuating on one of the beams, for 0 to 15, the power went from 3.75 at the beginning of the run to 4.2 at the end. The other beam stayed the same. At these lower powers I think these fluctuations might make a difference, but we should be able to test that with the simulations.

The data I took Oct 22 looked very interesting, and I'm now trying to simulate it. I need to figure Out what things we'll need for the grant proposal in December. I think simulating these plots will be one of them.
I thought more about the coupling beam standing wave acting as a FORT for the ground state and we thought it might be heating up the atoms. I'm trying to prove it so I had the coupling beams on but no probe beam, and tried to measure the temperature of the atoms after the coupling beams were turned off. I didn't see any change in atom number or temperature with the beams on or off.
