==Calculating Position of Each Bundle Support Mounting Rod==
An Excel [/nfs/direct/annex/mcintyre/TAGM-4-2021/Bundle-Support-4-2021.xlsx spreadsheet(placeholder)] has been created to calculate the location of the bundle supports' mounting rods with respect to the focal plane coordinate system. This spreadsheet also calculates the length of the parallel railing end supports which need to be fabricated anew for each unique TAGM location on the focal plane. One last, but very important thing that the spreadsheet calculates is the shim size needed, during TAGM realignment, in order to achieve the proper tow angle between bundle supports during mounting. In addition to the spreadsheet, an AutoCAD [https://zeus.phys.uconn.edu/wiki/index.php/Student_Projects_in_Nuclear_Physics drawing(placeholder)] used to design the three parallel rail components needed for each unique tagging energy spectrum starting position of the TAGM and a [https://zeus.phys.uconn.edu/wiki/index.php/Student_Projects_in_Nuclear_Physics drawing(placeholder)] for the current setup (β = 12.5<sup>o</sup> to 11.06<sup>o</sup>). These files are in US standard units (inches) and to scale with a tolerance of ± 0.001 inch.
