| ==== Report for week of 5/28 ==== * Enzo tested the LVDT driver repaired by Tanaka-san - it was fine. * Fujii-kun and Enzo finished assembling a batch of 4 geophones and took test data. * Hirata-san modified some Promec masses (drilling out the threads on 2 of 4 holes) so we could use two layers of them inside the BF. * Hirata-san installed maraging rod receptacles in the LBB damper rings, and in the bottom of PIs #3 and #1 (for the SF damper rings). * After consulting with various people, Hirata-san installed the second half of the LBB top ring in the chamber, simply omitting the pillar and screw associated with the badly threaded hole. * Hirata-san took delivery of the screws for the LBB blade units, made up 9 blade units and installed 6 of them on PI #3 and #1 (for SR3 and SR2). * Hirata-san made up a set of PI cable clamps and installed them on PI #3 (for SR3). * Hirata-san removed the prototype blades from PI #3 to get ready for testing the final blades. * We located the #355 disk and #356 poles for the next level of the security structure up to the SF and installed the poles. * We installed ballast mass in the BF. After some trial and error we settled on 16 Promec masses (7.1 kg) inside the BF and 5 D1808104-4 and 3 D1808104-5 masses (540 g) on the cap. * Enzo and Fujii-kun did several rounds of TFs on the BF/... section of the suspension and debugged a problem with dewhitening filters not being installed in the OSEMINF filter bank. * Enzo installed damping filters for the IM OSEMs. ==== Plan for week of 5/28 ==== * Mark, Enzo at Kamioka Mon-Fri. * Hirata-san at Kamioka Tue-Fri. (Mon is monthly Mitaka day.) * Matteo at Kamioka from Tue. He may help Type B to get experience. * Kozu-kun at Kamioka Mon only. (Rest of week is job interviews.) * -- ==== Plan for week of 6/4 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Tue-Fri. (Mon is NAOJ medical checkup.) * -- * Cable and test BF cap picos. * Build up security structure to SF level. * Crane in SF and remove cap. * Hook BF and adjust total ballast. * Route cables through SF-BF flying saucer up to bottom of SF. * Adjust BF trim mass. * Readjust payload. * Take TFs. * Add budgeted ballast mass to SF and weigh SF/... section. * Cable, test SF LVDT and FR. * Characterize final F0 blades. ==== Plan for week of 6/11 ==== * Mark Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Tue-Fri (Mon is compensation day for f2f.) * -- * Rebuild F0 #3 for SR3. * Park F0 #1 (for SR2) in top of SR3 assembly frame. * Move F0 #3 behind SR3. * Make LBB blade sets (or at least 3 of 9). |
==== Report for week of 12/17 ==== * BS * We opened the top of the BS tank after the vent. * We inspected the BS F0 blades for cracks but still didn't find any. * We removed the arc weights and geophones, and added new longer studs for the arc weights and new cables for the geophones. We then put back the original arc weights and new geophones. * We measured the geometry of the various IP items to check the IP diagonalization matrices. * We installed the new double-sided F0 FR. We were not close to needing to add the optional !CuBe spring. Unfortunately the FR had rather less friction but still didn't work. After checking a bunch of possibilities and comparing against SRM (also non-working) and SR2/SR3 (working), we suspect the carriage may be assembled upside down, with the metal plate below and the PEEK plate above. We will try changing it next week. * We adjusted the F0 keystone trim mass and were able to get it to sit at CAD nominal height at nominal temperature (24.9°C) with mid-range FR and modest extra mass (413 g). Interestingly, we noticed that removing the arc weights and/or geophones reduced the load capacity by a few hundred grams. * We measured the total range of the IP FRs in steps and set them to mid-range in preparation for tuning the IP frequency and (re-)centering the IP. * SRM * We borrowed an LED from SR2 and set the pitch of the SRM optic. * We found the SRM front end had crashed and could not be properly reset by cycling the power from the web interface. Yamamoto-san eventually got it working for us, although it didn't seem to take more than restarting the user and IOP models. * We sealed and retested the new geophones originally intended for SRM, but decided to use them on BS instead. * We installed the two OL viewports. We also tried to install the camera viewport but we couldn't get the Cu gasket to sit in the recess, so we gave up and will probably reallocate the camera viewport to SR3 for now (where it will go on a different type of flange which we've had success with.

Report for week of 12/17
- BS
- We opened the top of the BS tank after the vent.
- We inspected the BS F0 blades for cracks but still didn't find any.
- We removed the arc weights and geophones, and added new longer studs for the arc weights and new cables for the geophones. We then put back the original arc weights and new geophones.
- We measured the geometry of the various IP items to check the IP diagonalization matrices.
We installed the new double-sided F0 FR. We were not close to needing to add the optional CuBe spring. Unfortunately the FR had rather less friction but still didn't work. After checking a bunch of possibilities and comparing against SRM (also non-working) and SR2/SR3 (working), we suspect the carriage may be assembled upside down, with the metal plate below and the PEEK plate above. We will try changing it next week.
- We adjusted the F0 keystone trim mass and were able to get it to sit at CAD nominal height at nominal temperature (24.9°C) with mid-range FR and modest extra mass (413 g). Interestingly, we noticed that removing the arc weights and/or geophones reduced the load capacity by a few hundred grams.
- We measured the total range of the IP FRs in steps and set them to mid-range in preparation for tuning the IP frequency and (re-)centering the IP.
- SRM
- We borrowed an LED from SR2 and set the pitch of the SRM optic.
- We found the SRM front end had crashed and could not be properly reset by cycling the power from the web interface. Yamamoto-san eventually got it working for us, although it didn't seem to take more than restarting the user and IOP models.
- We sealed and retested the new geophones originally intended for SRM, but decided to use them on BS instead.

- SR3
- We opened the top of the tank briefly to inspect the configuration of the F0 FR, but didn't do any significant work.

- Etc
- We gave Simon a list of items we still need for the SRM OL. He seemed to think that they should be in stock at Kamioka and will help us look for them next Tue 1/15.

- Replace geophone preamps and cables (to fix noise, offset, pinout flip issues).
