| ==== Report for week of 11/19 ==== * BS * Fabian did some debugging on the BS and found that the calibration for the F0 LVDT was off due to an Excel error, and that the sag wasn't quite the 7 mm originally observed, but still enough to cause the suspension to touch down. Enzo tried applying LVDT actuation at the GAS filters and got it to lift off far enough to get sensible TFs, but the required BF offset was enough to put the IM OSEMs at the very edge of their usable range, so this is not a good long-term solution. We can probably raise the F0 keystone during the vent by removing mass and/or installing an auxiliary spring, which will then allow us to return the BF keystone to nominal height. * While working on the BS, Enzo noticed that one of the stepper drivers was not responding. It turned out to be water damaged from the rain issues earlier in the year. Enzo and Fujii-kun opened the rest of the BS chassises on the second floor but they seem to be OK. Tanaka-san had made a third driver chassis as a spare, so we reserved that and will install it in the week of 12/10. * SRM * The SRM-W optic arrived and we installed it in place of the SRM-M in the metal mass, taking care to use 1.4 mm shims as recommended by Hirose-san. The weight of the new assembly was within 1 g of the old and did not disturb the height of the payload. There was a very small change in pitch which we corrected with the IM picos. * We installed the shelf for the OL receiver. * We added the arc weights and geophones and went through several rounds of improving the centering of the IP and then realigning the security structure back to vertical. * We calibrated the F0 LVDT, and checked the F0 and IP actuation signs. * We adjusted the SF trim masses to set the SF pitch and roll, did an inventory of the trim mass and set the damper gap. * We did a final alignment of the whole chain and left the suspension ready for TFs during the f2f week. There is only a few hours of work left before we can install and we hope to do that on Monday 12/10. * SR2 * Enzo replaced the geophones and cables that had been borrowed for calibration and did several rounds of optimization of the IP frequency. He got as low as 46 mHz but with poor Q and so backed off a bit to 55 mHz and may back off a tiny bit more. * I derived updated IP matrices for the BS and SR, with more precise geometry data provided by Hirata-san, and published them as T1707205 and T1807663. * I created a CENTERING screen for the IP, with large panel meters for the LVDT signals and the derived L, T and Y signals. * Enzo confirmed that the fancy stepper control screen created by Shoda-san worked. * We installed a modified LPCD as IM-V for testing. * SR3 * We moved HPCDs from BS and SR2 to replace the ones that had been stolen from SR3, so as to create a working suspension with an OL for Kozu-kun. ==== To-Do Lists, Schedule ==== * [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDoBS]] * [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDoSR]] * [[https://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=7779|JGW-L1807779 Type B Schedule (SR)]] |

Report for the week of 3/25
- Mark and Fabian helped Fujii-kun with PR2. The problem turned out to be two broken flags. Hirata-san drew up a design for a jig to help reglue the flags in situ.
Fabian documented the height budget for the Type B suspension in the wiki (KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/OpsManual/TypeB/SR3Data etc).
- Terrence wrote up the final version of his OL diagonalization scheme.
- Terrence worked on L2P decoupling for the TM.
- Terrence and Mark edited the Type B Guardian to turn on the payload damping later in the sequence, after IP and GAS, to help ensure that the OSEMs are not touching by the time they're needed (which can happen if the BF is buoyancy compensated for vacuum but the suspension is vented).
- Mark started on a big tidy-up of the cleanbooth.
- Mark asked LIGO colleagues about use-by dates for EP30-2. Masterbond says it's good for 6 months in cartridge form and 12 months in jar form (although presumably only if the jars are not opened). If it's too old it may remain tacky after curing. The batch that Type B has was manufactured 2017-11-02 and KEK has a batch from early 2018.
