| ==== Report for week of 10/29 ==== * SRM * Enzo realized that he could cover the next round of needed cables with more cable soldering and did another batch. Because Yamamoto-san's lab was running low on isopropanol, Hirata-san washed them with ethanol at Mozumi. * Enzo worked out the optimum output resistance for the LPCDs to substitute for HPCDs with the horizontal IM OSEMs. The value was quite close to that already chosen for modified LPCDs by the cryogenic group, so we're going to standardize. The modified LPCDs will have to be operated with the internal watchdog disabled for now. * Fabian finished adding the TM OSEM cables and tested them. * We reconfigured the top of the assembly frame in preparation for the PI (removing crossbars and moving jacks down). * Hirata-san put the magnets on the SF damper and we hooked it to the PI, attached the #353 poles and craned the PI into the assembly frame. * We installed the F0-SF rod and flying saucer and suspended the SF/... section. We had plenty of spare load capacity, so we changed the CuBe spring to a weaker one and put 2.3 kg of ballast on the SF cap. * We reduced the trim mass on the BF to compensate for the mass of the TM OSEM cables. * Measured all the bounce frequencies. * Hirata-san put magnets on the LBB damper magnet ring, put the pieces into the tank and assembled them into a sandwich ready for craning. * SR2 * Hirata-san unclamped the LBB damper rings and suspended the LBB. It still needs ballast mass and is currently sitting high, with the blades at their upper stops. |

| ==== Plan for week of 11/4 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== SRM ===== * Main sequence * Add magnets to SF damper. * Install #353 poles * Move NB-03 jacks down. * Crane PI into AF. * Install F0-SF rod (#331) and flying saucer. * Route SF/... cables up to underside of F0. * Do vertical height budget. * Adjust SF trim mass for balance and keystone height. * Cable/test IP LVDTs. * Cable/test IP FRs. * LBB * Move KOACH filters * Put LBB damper rings in tank. * Set tank jacks to nominal height. |
==== Report for Golden Week ==== * Mark monitored vent and pumpdown, and worked on vistools.py. |

| ==== Plan for week of 11/11 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== SRM ===== * Unlock IP and center roughly. * Calibrate IP LVDTs. * Check/adjust alignment of SS. * Add arc weights and geophones (or extra mass equivalent to geophones). * Cable/test geophones. * Improve centering/tuning of IP and SS alignment. |
==== Report for the week of 5/6 ==== * Lucia and Terrence got the blending working for the IP LVDTs and geophones. * Terrence and Mark modified the models and MEDM screens to add a new IP block, IDAMP, for damping using the blended signal with inertial information, and a new DAMPMODE block for ramping smoothly between IDAMP and the old DAMP. * Mark worked on vistools.py, improving the support for cdsMuxMatrix blocks (e.g., OSEM2EUL) and adding support for cdsRampMuxMatrix blocks (e.g., the newly introduced DAMPMODE). He also created two sets of unit tests, unittest.py and unittest.sh, for the two modes of use (as a Python module in other Python programs, and as a command-line utility in bash). |

| ==== Plan for week of 11/18 ==== * Friday 11/23 is Labor Thanksgiving Day. * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Thu. ===== SRM ===== * Unlock IP and center roughly. * Calibrate IP LVDTs. * Check/adjust alignment of SS. * Add arc weights and geophones (or extra mass equivalent to geophones). * Cable/test geophones. * Improve centering/tuning of IP and SS alignment. * Crane into tank. |
==== Report for week of 5/13 ==== * Terrence and Mark looked at the velocity and angular velocity noise of the SR2 as reported by the LEN OL. The Y signal was fairly clean and the Y RMS angular velocity requirement was met. However the L signal was quite noisy, and was also contaminating the P signal due to the large cross terms in the diagonalization matrix. The RMS L from 5 Hz down with damping on was around 10 µm/s, which is 10 times the requirement. However little of this was due to pendulum resonances - most of the noise was featureless and broadband. In displacement units the noise was flat up to about 1 Hz and then smoothly rolled off to f^-2. The noise in the raw P and Y signals (not yet divided by the sum) was about 10 times the noise in the SUM * We tried improving the noise with different whitening settings. Increasing the overall gain, increasing it at the QPD but reducing it at the whitening filter, and switching off the 1-10Hz boost whitening filter (and compensating software filter) had no effect. Blocking the beam reduced the noise by about 2 orders and brought the raw P and Y in line with the SUM, suggesting that the problem was before the QPD. * Mark swapped in an improved version of `vistools.py`, debugged a few small issues, and simplified the `TYPEB.py` Guardian. ==== Vacation/Travel Info ==== * Terrence's next visit from 4/18 to 7/27. * Mark's US vacation from 5/22 to 6/11. * Mark's final day 6/28. |
