  * Fabian finished dummy BS assembly.
  * Mark and Tatsumi-san glued magnets into both types of BS optic flags, and discs into BS IM flags. [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=1815 |klog]] Two optic flags had to be redone because the magnets moved while the glue was drying. Hirata-san helped remove the magnets with acetone in the ultrasonic cleaner. [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=1818|klog]]
  * Tatsumi-san, Fabian and Mark took the dummy BS to Kashiwa and glued the flags and prisms. [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=1821|klog]] We will check status on Mon 6/13.
  * Hirata-san moved in another filter for testing (but didn't get to measure it).
  * Hirata-san washed a batch of parts.
  * Hirata-san modified the design of the parts of the assembly frame supporting the BF and SF to include bushings for smoother movement.
  * Hirata-san researched and ordered a crane scale for use at the site. (We decided the 500-kg version of the 200-kg one used at TAMA. It is the same price and has the same 100-g resolution for the first 250 kg.)
  * Hirata-san worked on making some guide parts for the PI installation (Misumi parts with minor additional machining from ATC).
  * We finalized a design for simple SS mirror parts for the dummy BS with Akutsu-san. They will be made by ATC.
  * Mark worked on list of items for purchase in FY2016 and on the schedule.
  * Fabian did more work on the IM assembly. It is nearly done and he will start on the RM next week. There were some issues with crimping connectors to wires for making pico adapter cables.		   * Mark and Fabian worked at Kamioka with Fujii-san:
   * We attempted to measure the tilt sensitivity of the accelerometers by adding shims under the legs but gave up when we discovered that picking up and putting down the accelerometer perturbs the zero point even without shims. We will probably need a special tilt stage to do this properly.
   * We took some frequency and Q measurements. The results were amplitude dependent. Joris thinks that this is due to not operating the accelerometers close enough to zero DC output.
   * We set up for a test of the geophone noise. One geophone is reading half the output of the others - one side of a differential signal has probably failed.
Line 21: Line 14:
   * Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs
  * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI.
   * Takahashi-san has ordered extra connectors (due any day) and will get a company to make the cables.
Line 25: Line 21:
  * Not enough crane height problem (Hirata, Saito) - no action since last week
Line 27: Line 22:
   * Crane scale - quote received
   * Work platforms - quote received		    * "Ceiling" work in BS clean booth (removal of second floor section) scheduled for Fri 7/1.
   * Assembly frame construction scheduled for 7/4
Line 35: Line 30:
  * Clean bag - expected 6/8.

  • Type B Past Week Summary
    • Mark and Fabian worked at Kamioka with Fujii-san:
      • We attempted to measure the tilt sensitivity of the accelerometers by adding shims under the legs but gave up when we discovered that picking up and putting down the accelerometer perturbs the zero point even without shims. We will probably need a special tilt stage to do this properly.

      • We set up for a test of the geophone noise. One geophone is reading half the output of the others - one side of a differential signal has probably failed.
  • Type B ongoing issues
    • Wires
      • Need to decide RM wire thickness and order BS and RM wires. Lead time is a few days from Nilaco.
    • OSEMs
      • Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs

    • Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI.

      • Takahashi-san has ordered extra connectors (due any day) and will get a company to make the cables.
    • Feedthrough Adapters
      • Need large quantity of male and female D-Sub 9, IDC ribbon connectors - Takahashi-san is getting a quote.
    • Can we make SR wire breakers bigger?
      • Fukushima-san will start on machining test soon (as of 5/27).
    • Installation stuff
      • "Ceiling" work in BS clean booth (removal of second floor section) scheduled for Fri 7/1.
      • Assembly frame construction scheduled for 7/4
    • Ballast masses for payload
      • Initial batch received - ordered extra smaller ones to allow for adjustments.
    • Lower breadboard stuff
      • Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss.
      • Breadboard springs (in manufacture, expected end of July)
      • Nail-head parts: quote from Mirapro received, not urgent, will be combined with assembly frame order.
    • Documents
