| ==== Report for week of 3/12 ==== * We helped Mirapro close up the BS tank, and did last minute checks and adjustments, including using the fishing rods to reset the GAS keystones to mid-range according to the LVDTs. (The F0 had risen so far (≈7 mm) due to temperature changes that it was touching the upper keystone stop screws and defeating the vibration isolation. We operated the F0 FR manually while the tank lid was off.) * We installed electronic boxes in the SR3 and SRM racks. Rack internal cabling and in-air cabling to SR3 still needs to be done. * Hirata-san disassembled two BFs (one SF BF with a tilted keystone and the BS Test Hang BF) and characterized all 10 available SR BF blades. He found they fell into a group of 6 strong ones and a group of 4 weak ones, so he divided the 6 into two matched sets and rebuilt the two filters. * We noticed that the bottom level of SR2 suspension had developed a significant yaw (enough to foul on the security structure), probably introduced when we picked the chain up to weigh it, so we lifted the suspension again and corrected it. * We aligned the SR2 ready for TFs. We noticed that the IM/... section had a noticeable roll (≈20 mrad) but we were unable to correct it with the IM roll pico (the pico runs but the roll does not change, probably because there is too much friction for the mass return spring). We will see if the TFs look OK and then decide whether to try correcting the roll. * We gathered items for OSEM assembly by Enzo, Shoda-san and others at Mitaka next week, and for geophone assembly by Fujii-kun and Kozu-kun at Kamioka. Hirata-san ordered some M8x35 screws that we didn't have enough of. * We took delivery of the blade bases for the LBB dampers. * Hirata-san packed up two SF caps (the original one from the SR2 SF) and a spare, for remachining by Mirapro. He also packed up the dummy BS for shipment to Mitaka for soaking off the sapphire prisms. |
==== Report for week of 6/18 ==== * We powered down the Type B racks as a precaution against possible loss of power during work on Tuesday, and later powered them up again. * We put a flange cover over the hole in the floor near the filter tuning area as a temporary safety measure. We later managed to entirely close the part of the hole that was not covered by the filter, by moving the filter towards the outside and using short floor panels from SR2 on the tank side. * We removed the SR3 PI from the filter tuning area and brought in the SR2 one. * We put magnets on the SR damper magnet ring to match the two Cu segments we were using. * We craned the SR3 PI into the AF, connected it to the security structure, and hooked the SF/... section and the SF damper magnet ring. * At first the F0 did not rise, and we realized that we had 2 kg less margin than we originally thought because we had not allowed for the PI-SF rod receptacle, the top disk which holds the yaw stepper mechanism, or the stepper itself. * However we were able to try the redesigned PI fishing rod, parts for which had just arrived. The optional strong CuBe spring in the new arrangement gave plenty of extra lift, so that we now have about 5 kg of margin. We did have to move the yoke to work around the problem that the CuBe spring tends to tilt the keystone, but we got it moving freely. We will also have to compress the blades some more to compensate for the extra stiffness, which caused the frequency to rise from 0.5 Hz to 0.9 Hz. |

Type B (Mark)
Report for week of 6/18
- We powered down the Type B racks as a precaution against possible loss of power during work on Tuesday, and later powered them up again.
- We put a flange cover over the hole in the floor near the filter tuning area as a temporary safety measure. We later managed to entirely close the part of the hole that was not covered by the filter, by moving the filter towards the outside and using short floor panels from SR2 on the tank side.
- We removed the SR3 PI from the filter tuning area and brought in the SR2 one.
- We put magnets on the SR damper magnet ring to match the two Cu segments we were using.
- We craned the SR3 PI into the AF, connected it to the security structure, and hooked the SF/... section and the SF damper magnet ring.
- At first the F0 did not rise, and we realized that we had 2 kg less margin than we originally thought because we had not allowed for the PI-SF rod receptacle, the top disk which holds the yaw stepper mechanism, or the stepper itself.
However we were able to try the redesigned PI fishing rod, parts for which had just arrived. The optional strong CuBe spring in the new arrangement gave plenty of extra lift, so that we now have about 5 kg of margin. We did have to move the yoke to work around the problem that the CuBe spring tends to tilt the keystone, but we got it moving freely.
