Measurement Status, potential optics for replacement of H1 core optics.
4ITM05 is the best candidate replacement due to good radius of curvature match with the existing Y-arm ITM

p - preliminary measurement

Note1:  The range of radii of curvature measured for 4ITM05 were from 13.77K to 14.02K with the Average being 13.91K. The change in the measured saggita over this range is 3.3nm 
The preliminary measurement for this optic 13.58 was measured with a different insrument calibration (the instrument has since been rebuilt)  The new calibration (4-2005) is ... new, and will be refined with ongoing measurement.  The old measurement may be a better indicator of ROC match with other optics measured under the same instrument calibration.

Note 2:  The same streaks as seen on 4ITM01 (uncoated), 4ITM08, BS06 and one of the (now repolished) SPETMs can be seen on 4ITM05.  The streaks do not change the surface enough to put it beyond the specification that the surface error (with power and astigmatism subtracted) be less than 0.8nm rms
