==== Report for week of 7/2 ==== * We double-checked the bounce frequency and it was indeed around 0.5 Hz with the CuBe auxiliary spring installed. * We prepared (but did not yet install) 6 arc weights for tuning the IP. * We unlocked the security structure from the assembly frame, and raised the whole system on the top jacks. We then unlocked the IP and adjusted the leveling so the IP was centered. We then had to loosen two of the poles at the top level of the security structure to make it vertical again, because it turns out that the jack receptacles (which also serve as the IP leg bases) are welded at very uneven depths in the bottom surface of the PI, so the IP and the bottom surface can't be level at once. * We debugged an issue with the height of the payload. It turns out that due to a buildup of errors (especially an extra 3 mm between the SF and BF), the payload is some 5-6 mm low with the F0 keystone at CAD height. Since the frequency is roughly independent of height around 0.5 Hz, we decided to go with a higher F0 keystone. * Enzo and Eleonora routed all the SF/... cables up to the PI. * We found we needed 4.7 kg of extra mass to get the desired keystone height, so we decided to put the third Cu segment (3.3 kg) back on, purely as ballast. * We put some extra small masses on the SF cap to level it. The suspension is now fully ballasted and trimmed except for 1 Promec mass (455 g) standing in for the new PI yaw stepper motor assembly (estimated 330 g) which is yet to arrive. * We took all the SR sat amps back to Mozumi to get new capacitors installed, and grabbed three spares for use while that is being done. * We investigated and documented Tanaka-san's watchdog for the BS, to see if the BIO Converter chassis that it uses could also drive reset lines for stepper motor driver boxes. * Hirata-san and Terrence characterized the last 4 F0 blades. * Hirata-san and Terrence installed blades in the top filter for SR2 and tuned it to 0.5 Hz (with the CuBe auxiliary spring) over three rounds of compression. |
==== Report for week of 8/13 ==== * KAGRA was closed Mon/Tue 8/13-14 due to Obon. * Enzo and team investigated an issue with the height of the SR3 keystone coupling to yaw of the payload as measured by the OL. We suspect a ferromagnetic item on the SF damper, but we're not sure. |

==== Report for week of 8/20 ==== ===== SR3 ===== * Hatoya-san and Enzo gathered date for a study of yaw mode Q damping time as a study of damper ring height. ===== SR2 ===== * We continued with cabling work. * We configured a second pico driver and connected it. * We assembled the LBB damper rings in the tank, craned them to near the top and hooked them. While the tank was open we also set to nominal height the jacks below the mushroom that will support the suspension. |

==== Plan for week of 7/9 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== Main Sequence ===== * Check/restore alignment of payload, especially optic pitch. * Install and cable geophones. * Install arc weights. * Tune IP. * Install, cable PI yaw stepper. * Make three in-air stepper splitter cables for SR2, SR3 and SRM. * Calibrate PI LVDTs and FRs. * Cabling, testing, TFs. |
===== SRM ===== * We reserved and configured two pico drivers. * We checked the prism gluing - all the jigs came away successfully. * Fabian assembled the RM. * Hirata-san added ballast masses to the IM and we weighed it, as well as the RM and the optic in the mirror box. * We suspended the optic and RM. |

===== F0/LBB Stuff ===== * Finalize PI #1 for SR2; crane into SR2 cleanbooth. * Remove SR3 tank lid, crane LBB rings to top of lower half of the tank, clamp in position. * Set tank jacks to nominal height. * Clear space for PI #2 (SRM) work. |
==== Report for week of 8/27 ==== ===== Arc weights ===== * We did an inventory of arc weights to see if we had enough for SRM. Including the weights on the pallet, some weights left over from the BS, and the weights already on SR3, we have enough for a basic allocation for all of type B (172 kg for BS and 103.2 kg per SR) but with only 5 kg spare for tuning. * We brought all the arc weights into the cleanrooms and divided them up for the SRs. * Hirata-san cleaned up 1 large arc weight and 3 mediums left over from the BS that got wet during the heavy rain. |

==== Plan for week of 7/16 ==== * Monday 7/16 is Sea Day. * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun, Terrence at Kamioka Tue-Fri. ===== Main Sequence ===== * Lock suspension. * Crane into tank. * Unlock suspension. * Rearrange cables. * Test. ===== F0/LBB Stuff ===== * Install correct IP in PI #2. * Crane PI #2 to second floor. * Rebuild top filter of PI #2. |
===== SR3 ===== * Using SR3, we did a quick study of the IP frequency as a function of the number of arc weights, to see how much more we might need. 3 pairs of small arc weights (10 mm thick, 4.53 kg each) brought the frequency below 0.1 Hz, 4 pairs made it unstable. If SR3 is typical we would need about 27 kg extra per suspension. * After the IP study, we left three pairs of 10 mm arc weights installed on the IP and measured the frequencies with the digital system (instead of a stopwatch). Both L and T were around 0.08 Hz, which is good. * We unclamped the LBB damper rings, installed the rods down to the LBB and hooked the LBB. Mirapro then moved the SR2-SR3 duct to give more space at the SR2 end. ===== SR2 ===== * We finished routing the in-vacuum cables, and started connecting everything through to the rack for final testing. ===== SRM ===== * Panwei calibrated 6 OSEMs to be used on the IM. Two OSEMs have a long-term drift issue and may need repair. He took some long time series to characterize the drift. * We assembled and installed the bottom section of the security structure under the optic and RM. * We set up a new OL for setting the pitch. We found the reflection off the AR surface was much weaker than for SR2 and SR3, but fortunately the HR surface is almost flat (ROC≈300 m) and the reflection is weak but better so we were able to use the HR side instead. ==== Plan for week of 9/3 ==== * Mark, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri. * Enzo at Kamioka Mon-Thu. * Hirata-san at Kamioka Tue-Fri. * Major crane inspection Mon/Wed mornings using space where Type B work table is.
