==== 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 because it was hard-wired to 2 mA. * Fabian finished adding the TM OSEM cables out to the rack and tested them. * We ran DC power and network to the second SRM stepper driver. We still need to get one more DC power cable to replace one we borrowed from SR3. We added the remaining steppers to the Python driver and MEDM screen. * 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, craned the PI into the assembly frame and joined it to the security structure. * 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. This leaves 1.2 kg reserve for cables and an F0 yaw stepper mechanism. * We reduced the trim mass on the BF to compensate for the mass of the TM OSEM cables. * We 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. |
==== Report for the week 5/20 (written by Fabian) ==== * Lucia helped Terrence in starting the diagonalization of the SR2 geophones and provided belding filters that Terrence will optimize. (The blending frequency is 0.190 Hz for L,T and 0.260 Hz for Y). See entry [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8905|8905]]. * The highlight of the week is Terrence's measurement of the residual motion of the SR2 optic: it does fulfill the rms displacement and velocity requirements for lock acquisition measured by the oplev. See the report at klog entry [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8949|8949]]. * The integrated RMS was calculated from 5 Hz to DC because there are some peaks between 8 Hz and 10 Hz and whose origin still has to be clarified. See the report at entries [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8918|8918]] and [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8933|8933]]. * After Akutsu-san's suggestion Terrence improved the air shield in two rounds, including a cylindrical cover around the viewport. This reduced the noise by about a factor of 10. * He realized setting up the shield may have slightly changed something in the oplev and carried out another round of diagonalization. * By exciting the pringle mode he balanced the optic coils, measured TFs and tuned the damping filters. * The optic residual motion in L, P and Y showed a large peaks close to 0.2 Hz, which is where the micro-seismic may become apparent. This suggested the inertial damping system is not working in a suitable way. As a temporary measure he modified the filters and reduced the gain. * At the end measurement of the residual motion reported was carried out with inertial damping only in yaw. * Terrence reported an unresponsive SR2 optic coil. We chekced and found the H3 coil cable disconnected. * Fabian measured the settings of the SR2 and BS LVDT drivers. See klogs [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8941|8941]] and [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8951|8951]]. * Fabian helped with the corresponding measurement of one of PR2 LVDT drivers. See klog [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=8952|8952]] * Fabian worked more on the calculation of the amount of sensor noise injected: * I imported Panwei's OSEM noise measurements and calculated the virtual sensor noise. * I imported Fujii-kun's measuement of the geophone noise and calculated the virtual sensor noise. * I imported the blending filter. * Fabian submitted and abstract for the Autumn JPS meeting on September. |

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.

Report for the week 5/20 (written by Fabian)
Lucia helped Terrence in starting the diagonalization of the SR2 geophones and provided belding filters that Terrence will optimize. (The blending frequency is 0.190 Hz for L,T and 0.260 Hz for Y). See entry 8905.
The highlight of the week is Terrence's measurement of the residual motion of the SR2 optic: it does fulfill the rms displacement and velocity requirements for lock acquisition measured by the oplev. See the report at klog entry 8949.
The integrated RMS was calculated from 5 Hz to DC because there are some peaks between 8 Hz and 10 Hz and whose origin still has to be clarified. See the report at entries 8918 and 8933.
- After Akutsu-san's suggestion Terrence improved the air shield in two rounds, including a cylindrical cover around the viewport. This reduced the noise by about a factor of 10.
- He realized setting up the shield may have slightly changed something in the oplev and carried out another round of diagonalization.
- By exciting the pringle mode he balanced the optic coils, measured TFs and tuned the damping filters.
- The optic residual motion in L, P and Y showed a large peaks close to 0.2 Hz, which is where the micro-seismic may become apparent. This suggested the inertial damping system is not working in a suitable way. As a temporary measure he modified the filters and reduced the gain.
- At the end measurement of the residual motion reported was carried out with inertial damping only in yaw.
- Terrence reported an unresponsive SR2 optic coil. We chekced and found the H3 coil cable disconnected.
Fabian measured the settings of the SR2 and BS LVDT drivers. See klogs 8941 and 8951.
Fabian helped with the corresponding measurement of one of PR2 LVDT drivers. See klog 8952
- Fabian worked more on the calculation of the amount of sensor noise injected:
- I imported Panwei's OSEM noise measurements and calculated the virtual sensor noise.
- I imported Fujii-kun's measuement of the geophone noise and calculated the virtual sensor noise.
- I imported the blending filter.
- Fabian submitted and abstract for the Autumn JPS meeting on September.
Plan for the week 5/25
- Terrence will work in the optimization of the inertial damping.
- Fabian will continue with the calculation and prepare a presentation for the conference in Brazil.
