FALCON Remote Laser Alignment System

Hebner, Gregory A.

The FALCON Remote Laser Alignment System is used in a high radiation environment to adjust an optical assembly. The purpose of this report is to provide a description of the hardware used and to present the system configuration. Use of the system has increased the reliability and reproducibility of data as well as significantly reducing personnel radiation exposure. Based upon measured radiation dose, radiation exposure was reduced by at least a factor of two after implementing the remote alignment system.
