| ==== Past week report ==== At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san): |
==== Report for week of 12/25 ==== * Hirata-san got the L-brackets machined and washed, and installed them on the IM ring bars. * Shoda-san recovered the BS from the power outage on 12/25. * Miyakawa-san fixed an issue with the SR2 RTM which had prevented it from running. * Shoda-san, Hirata-san and Kozu-kun weighed the IM without ballast masses, and then added the lower masses and installed the IM on the assembly frame. * They cleaned the assembly frame and installed new jack receptacles on the load gauge adapter. * They installed the winch system on the IM, and inspected the clamp pieces for possible scratches. * They ran cables for the SR2 steppers and OSEMs. * They calibrated the BF LVDT. |

| * 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. * Added ballast to set the height of the F0 keystone. We now have about 6 kg in hand (due to removing one of the Cu segments for the SF damper). This should be enough margin for cables, temperature fluctuations etc. |
==== Report for week of 1/4 ==== * Mark fixed a number of errors with the Type B screens. |

==== Report for week of 1/9 ==== * We weighed the mirror in its box (and later the empty box), and the RM. * Fabian worked on the SR2/SR3/SRM mass budget and did an inventory of spare ballast masses. * We hung the SR2 and RM. * We assembled the bottom section of the security structure below the RM. * Hirata-san gave up on waiting for a third quote for the blades and blade parts and started the ordering process. * Hirata-san got rod cable clamp parts from Takahashi-san and worked on drawings for the improved BS vertical and yaw adjusters. |

| Weeks of 5/22, 5/29: * Retest SF stepper every day, to see if problems recur. * Find/install geophone adapter plates or improvise replacement. * Reinstall PI, this time with rods and damper ring. * Reinstall PI-SF rod, this time with hex cable clamp. * Cable/test PI geophones LVDTs and steppers. * Reinstall LBB blade units. |
