| ==== Report for week of 8/13 ==== * KAGRA was closed Mon/Tue 8/13-14 due to O-Bon. * Enzo and team debugged an issue with 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 2/12 (February 12th) ==== * On Saturday we moved the vertical IM OSEMs in order to compensate for a large pitch in the IM introduced when the IR laser as aligned. * I took transfer functions over the weekend and the system looks healthy. * Although moving the OSEMs was done successfully, I accidentally pulled the cables and moved the flying saucer cable clamp set. I rotated it back judging the position by visual inspection, but an IM yaw drift appeared since then. It's moving with a speed of 0.2 urad/min. * On Tuesday we moved the Im back to zero but the drift continued. At the time of writing these lines it is at -833 urad, with H2 and H3 at 93 um and 47 um and still drifting. * On Saturday we connected the SRM geophones in-air cables and confirmed we had a signal. * However, on Wednesday morning the geophones are not giving any signal. We cheked the master model channel and realized the problem was not the slave model. We suspect a hardware fault. * I checked the in-air cables were connected. * We released the SRM optical bench and wiped the places where sticky tape was used to fix support blocks. * We wiped the SR2 optical bench and security structure. SR3 and SRM had been wiped by Hirose-san, Hirata-san and Fujii-kun. * Terrence worked on splitting the real-time models for all the SR suspensions. * Today the pumping down of the central area will begin around noon. We will monitor the four inverted pendulums. |

| ==== 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 the 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 the jacks below the mushroom that will support the suspension to nominal height. |
==== Report for week of 1/28 ==== * Etc * Mark inventoried lots of items and updated the [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/Status|Status]] page. * SR2 * Hirata-san helped with installing the obelisk on the LBB, and added counterweights to get the LBB level and at the right height for the first rough alignment. However the springs were still at or near the top stops, so he later pulled down the LBB with excess mass, locked the blades at the bottom of their range and reset the LBB rods and damping magnet ring, aiming off by 10 mm so that it would be correct when the LBB was allowed to rise to midrange on the blades. He left it pressed down for now so that Hirose-san could apply FC. Early next week he will release it and do the final ballasting. * Hirose-san applied and removed FC on both sides of the optic for cleanliness. * Mirapro hooked the LBB. * SR3 * Enzo installed IM damping filters. * Mark installed a BIO Converter for the stepper remote enable (which will eventually also be used for the WD). * Fabian researched buoyancy compensation and pre-applied as much as possible to SR3. The total compensation needed is 0.19 mm for F0, 0.48 mm for SF and 0.46 mm for BF, total 1.23 mm. 1.0 mm had been applied with the jacks. The initial plan was to apply the calculated amounts at each level but then offset F0 1.0 mm lower to undo the jack adjustment. However SF was stuck approximately 1 mm lower than it needed to end up, so the buoyancy correction for it will have to be done at F0, and F0 will end up quite close to nominal. * Fabian also offloaded the IM pico yaw adjustment done by Enomoto-kun-tachi to the F0 yaw stepper. This left the OSEMs well-centered, so we will not need to adjust them and the LBB can be released. * SRM * Enzo fixed the broken triple in-air pico adapter cable and we plugged it back in. * Fabian calibrated the F0 FR. * Enzo and Terrence installed the arc weights and geophones, tuned and centered the IP, and centered and calibrated the FRs. * Mirapro helped us with the camera viewport issue by giving us a gasket of the same type but a different brand from their stock, which snapped easily into place. We then installed the viewport on the tank. Kokeyama-san will help us add the camera and camera LAN cable next week. * Simon gave us all the remaining items for the SRM OL except the 3D stage for the LEN QPD. |

| ===== SRM ===== * We reserved and configured two pico drivers. * We checked the prism gluing and 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. |
==== Plan for week of 2/4 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Fabian, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri. * Hirata-san at Kamioka Mon+TBD. * Etc * Split SR2, SR3 and SRM RT models. * Get rid of the power reel behind SRM and plug stuff into the new power point instead. * BS * Run BNC cables for stepper remote enable, plug into BIO, debug. * SR2 * Do buoyancy correction. * Install camera viewport. * Install camera. * Run BNC cables for stepper remote enable, plug into BIO, debug. * SR3 * Release LBB. * Ballast LBB. * Install camera viewport. * Install camera. * Debug stepper remote enable. * SRM * Install camera. * Ballast LBB. * Do buoyancy correction. * Set up OL. * Debug stepper remote enable. |

| ==== Report for week of 8/27 ==== ===== SR3 ===== * We did an inventory of arc weights to see if we had enough for SRM and found that we had only enough for a basic allocation for all of type B (172 kg for BS and 103.2 kg per SR) with almost no spare for tuning. * 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 for more investigation with the digital system (instead of a stopwatch). ''RESULTS.'' ===== SR2 ===== * We finished routing the in-vacuum cables, and connected everything through to the rack for final testing. * We brought a basic 103.2 kg set of arc weights (3 large (38 mm) and 6 medium (19 mm)) into the SR2 cleanbooth. ===== SRM ===== * Panwei calibrated 6 OSEMs to be used on the IM. * We brought in all the remaining arc weights from the pallet into the SRM cleanbooth, and Hirata-san cleaned up 1 large arc weight and 3 mediums left over from the BS that complete a basic set of 103.2 kg, plus about 5 kg spare. (However 27 kg of these are on loan to SR3.) * 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) so we were able to use the HR reflection instead. * ''We set the pitch of the SRM and RM and tightened the wire clamps.'' ==== Plan for week of 9/3 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri. * (Mark possible trip to LIGO Hanford - TBD.) ===== SR2 ===== * Crane in SR2. * Move SR2 in-air cables. * Remove First Contact.
