= VIS special meeting on iKAGRA ETM and PR2 = 2016/1/6 14:00 - 15:45 Participants: Fabian, Tatsumi, Suzuki, Raffaele, Shoda, Takahashi, Tomaru, Aso, Mark, Akutsu, Fujii == Agenda Items == * Proposed plans (Aso) * [[attachment:CLIO-LISM-TAMA-KAGRA3000.pdf|Slides]] * Two descoping options are proposed * Use TAMA PRM with TAMA suspension as iKAGRA ETMs * Use fixed PR2 * TAMA suspension status (Takahashi) * There exist 5 TM type suspensions in TAMA * Two of them have coils, others not. * Two suspensions with coils will be used for the filter cavity experiment * We need to make coils and associated parts * Some of the suspensions were stored in the air for a long time. We need to clean them first. * Tatsumi-san already got a quotation for coil bobins: delivery date 1/25 * We can use D-sub instead of BNC, so that we can also use in-vac cables prepared for ETMs. * One of the TAMA PRMs is used for the filter cavity experiment. If we use this mirror, they need something instead -> LISM mirror (ask Ohashi-san) == Conclusions == * VIS team agrees to the two descoping plans proposed by SEO * ETM * NAOJ will take care of the preparation of the TAMA suspensions back to the original state. The rest of the installation work should be led by other people (e.g. Uchiyama-san). Aso will consult with SEO about this responsibility separation. * The following items are identified as the NAOJ tasks for the suspension preparation * Check the current status * Wash existing parts * Order missing parts * Coil winding * Send parts to Kamioka * Assemble the suspensions at Kamioka * The task assignment was discussed between Aso and Takahashi. They will contact people to get their agreement. Then the task assignment will be announced soon. * The filter cavity experiment needs a replacement mirror for the PRM. Aso will ask Ohashi-san about the LISM mirror. * PR2 * The preparation and installation of the fixed mirror will not be done by the VIS people. * We need to consider how to effectively use the released man power for the preparation of bKAGRA suspensions -> to be discussed at the regular VIS meeting. * We need to secure and cover up the current PR2 assembly set up (Mark, Fabian)
