Commissioning Strategy Meeting (2023/2/17)
- 3 months + 1 week to O4a start (24 May)
- Golden Week holidays(3-7 May)
- GWADW2023 (21-27 May)
- Topics on the sensitivity enhancement
- Seismic noise isolation of OMC?? (~ 6 months??)
- where is the noise due to the "normally expected" seismic noise?
- Some selection
no opening vacuum tanks <- low seismic noise environment to realize 1-3Mpc
opening vacuum tanks <- if scattered light ? new injection path is also possible.
- TMPs were off on OMC/SRM at present.
- Seismic noise is still larger than O3GK now.
Can we reach the O3GK sensitivity level if we can realize the low seismic noise level? -> Washimi-kun -> We can reduce or not
- If we open OMC, what should we check?
- scattered light on the cable? that was identified by Akutsu-kun.
- Bleade spring resonance? No data.
- Up conversion noise implies scattered light noise?
OSTM swing to check the scattered lights? -> Ushiba
Slow actuation of suspension -> PEM team
- Hummering/acoustic test?
- stable noises also exist.
- 3 mirrors(IX, IY, EY) cooling(~2 months(assuming "1 month for one mirror" and "one cooling in one arm at the same time".)
- How much commissioning time will be used for
- suspension height adjustment
- drifting
- PY/L coupling adjustment
resonance mitigation control in -> minor adjustment is enough, mainly in gain.
- How much commissioning time will be used for
- Control of PRFPMI+DC
ADS/ASC/WFS for arms to mitigate the contrast fluctuation -> Ushiba
- mysterious off set problems
- under investigation.
- Check the TMSX to kill scattered light.
ETMY covering -> check effect
- ADS in FPMI
- Enhance OMC lock-acquire stability?
- More dynamic range of PNC-X?
- Laser
- HPL usage for IFO (120W to Toyama U, Characterized New 60W to KAGRA)
HPL in Toyama U (new 60W characterization -> KAGRA, Repair of 120W from KAGRA)
- ISS
- Noise hunting, reduction, budgeting
- MICH
- PRCL
Suspension control around <100Hz for some suspensions
local control optimization to reduce the contrast fluctuation? -> Ushiba + alpha
- Suspension control around the micro-seismic area
- PEM/DetChar activities
- MISC
- Remove unnecessary stuff from the isolated area, especially around OMC.
- Seismic noise isolation of OMC?? (~ 6 months??)
- Topics on maintenance for the long operation
- Vacuum stuff
Ion pump operation estimation -> Who (Kimura, next week) -> Next week schedule.
-> do as soon as possible.
- TakahashiR-san maybe.
- Cryo-coolers
- Air conditioning Coolers/heaters
- Seasonal water drainage
- Yarm pumping mid March - mid May
- Vacuum stuff
