| * Hirata-san: * Worked on the PR optic removal jig. * Worked on getting modified quotes for PR/SR/BS parts. * Enzo-san * Worked on getting his drivers license. * Worked on getting familiar with the Type B circuit diagram. * Mark, Fabian (at Kamioka): * Tried different strategies for getting the IRM-IM EQ stops and IRM OSEMs to line up simultaneously. * Realized that the main problem was that the pitch of the BS had changed relative to the IM (presumably due to slight slippage of the wires) so the IM had to be pitched up by 16 mrad to get the BS pitched slightly down (4.7 mrad). * Took the sides off the IRM to get access to the clamps and tightened them to prevent further slips. * Rebalanced the IM to be level in pitch (and roll). * Reassembled the IRM and aligned the IRM-IM EQ stops - this time it was easy. * Adjusted the IRM and RM OSEMs to mid-range. * Got Kokeyama's new real-time model working and started TFs. |
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san): * Inspected LLB in tank - in a good position, but not very clean - apparent water spots and dirt. * Found the geophone adapter plates. * Retested SF FR stepper - still good. * Finally got SF LVDT working: * Found a short in the primary coil due to Al foil used for mechanical reinforcement at vacuum feedthrough connection. * Did a full calibration and found that linear range was too small (0.75 mm!) and did not cover nominal keystone height. * Decreased gain to increase linear range. * Adjusted the height of the yoke and secondary coil unit to center the linear region around the nominal keystone height. * Implemented velocity damping. * Found all parts for the LBB and damper rings. * Cu segments and some other parts were very dirty - wiped carefully for now, but should be properly cleaned before final install. * Outrigger parts for LBB have M16 thread cut directly into Al but should have had M16 helicoils. This is a galling risk with Ag-coated rod receptacles. Hirata-san organized rework. * Some special lock nuts are in short supply and are being borrowed from supply at ATC for next batch of BFs. * Made remaining two geophone in-air descrambler cables (total three). * Installed a thermometer supplied by Kokeyama-san on the tower around the BS tank. * Prepared the SF damper. * Designed a pattern of magnets for the two-segment arrangement of SF damper and laid it out on the magnet ring with the template. * Moved the Cu segments on SF cap by 30° (the cap had not been in the right position earlier). * Reinstalled PI: * Raised the PI with the crane and hooked the SF damper ring. Some of the rods did not fit the receptacles due to tolerance issue, but by going through a large number of rods and receptacles, we found three working sets. * Craned the PI onto the frame and suspended the SF/... section, this time with the hex cable clamp on the F0-SF rod. * Tensioned the PI yaw return spring, installed (but did not cable) the yaw stepper and adjusted the yaw of the SF/... section.

The extra weight from the geophones (≈42 kg) and SF damper ring (≈17 kg) had brought the IP to near the point of instability, so we removed one arc weight (≈17 kg) and rearranged the other two in the top row to be symmetrical. * Added ballast to set the height of the F0 keystone.

Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
- Inspected LLB in tank - in a good position, but not very clean - apparent water spots and dirt.
- Found the geophone adapter plates.
- Retested SF FR stepper - still good.
- Finally got SF LVDT working:
- Found a short in the primary coil due to Al foil used for mechanical reinforcement at vacuum feedthrough connection.
- Did a full calibration and found that linear range was too small (0.75 mm!) and did not cover nominal keystone height.
- Decreased gain to increase linear range.
- Adjusted the height of the yoke and secondary coil unit to center the linear region around the nominal keystone height.
- Implemented velocity damping.
- Found all parts for the LBB and damper rings.
- Cu segments and some other parts were very dirty - wiped carefully for now, but should be properly cleaned before final install.
- Outrigger parts for LBB have M16 thread cut directly into Al but should have had M16 helicoils. This is a galling risk with Ag-coated rod receptacles. Hirata-san organized rework.
- Some special lock nuts are in short supply and are being borrowed from supply at ATC for next batch of BFs.
- Made remaining two geophone in-air descrambler cables (total three).
- Installed a thermometer supplied by Kokeyama-san on the tower around the BS tank.
- Prepared the SF damper.
- Designed a pattern of magnets for the two-segment arrangement of SF damper and laid it out on the magnet ring with the template.
- Moved the Cu segments on SF cap by 30° (the cap had not been in the right position earlier).
- Reinstalled PI:
- Raised the PI with the crane and hooked the SF damper ring. Some of the rods did not fit the receptacles due to tolerance issue, but by going through a large number of rods and receptacles, we found three working sets.
- Craned the PI onto the frame and suspended the SF/... section, this time with the hex cable clamp on the F0-SF rod.
- Tensioned the PI yaw return spring, installed (but did not cable) the yaw stepper and adjusted the yaw of the SF/... section. We worry the return spring is not stiff enough.
- Installed (but did not cable) the geophones.
- Recentered the IP. The extra weight from the geophones (≈42 kg) and SF damper ring (≈17 kg) had brought the IP to near the point of instability, so we removed one arc weight (≈17 kg) and rearranged the other two in the top row to be symmetrical.
