Hi MTd2. It’s nice to hear you’ve been following our work. The Time vs. Energy graph represents where we have been and where we want to be by the end of the year, but progress is not expected to be linear. There has been a delay as we are upgrading the switches and trigger system, which you can read about in the “July Switch Update” article. I’m very happy with the progress this year, even with the occasional delay, and I’m still confident in our projections. By the end of September, we’ll have a much better picture of where we stand and what we can expect by the year’s end. Until then, the team is lowering electrical noise, calibrating instruments, and all that “mundane” work that is absolutely vital to progress. It is also appropriate to prepare for pB11 testing because it is just around the corner, but we need to have the diagnostic suite ready before we can make the switch from deuterium.
