Subject: E2E 20050606 Shift-B Science Report.

The Best Focus I sub-test was performed and analyzed. In the first phase, 
on-axis images were taken at focus step positions from -2500 to +2500. 
This data was fitted with 2D Gaussians, and the RSS widths were fitted 
with a 2nd degree polynomial. The fitted minimum determined the coarse 
Best Focus position.

In the second phase, images were taken at intervals of 20 focus steps from 
-1150 to -350. The data were fitted with 2D Gaussians, and the RSS widths 
were fitted with a 2nd degree polynomial. The fitted minimum determined 
the fine Best Focus position to be at focus step = -770. This corresponds 
to a position of -472 um.

The data for the X-Ray Optical Axis alignment sub-test were taken. Images 
at 5x5 positions were taken, at 6 arc-minute intervals in pitch and yaw. 
Analysis will need to be completed by the morning shift.
