| * Type B Past Week Summary * Fabian took photos of the cleanroom in the ATC to help decide whether it is a good place to assemble PIs for Type A/B. * Hirata-san ordered and received wire for the BS and RM (will be cleaned 7/19). * Hirata-san received remachined locking parts for the IM (will be cleaned 7/19). * Hirata-san ordered additional Misumi parts to be used with the IM locking parts. * Fabian and Hirata-san weighed the masses that they've been constructing in the cleanroom and found a 600 g discrepancy from the Inventor (too light) for the IM. * Hirata-san ordered a medium-capacity scale to weigh the masses of the individual parts more precisely. * Hirose-san and his team successfully removed the misglued prisms from the dummy BS. * Fabian travelled to Kashiwa and removed most of the glue from the face of the dummy BS (where the flags had been). There is still some adhesive remaining on both the face and barrel, which will require more work and a second trip. * Shoda-san took a suitable segment of geophone noise data for analysis. Fabian will track down the calibration factors. * Type B ongoing issues * OSEMs * Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI. * Connectors RECEIVED, cables being made. * SR machining test ongoing. * Lower breadboard stuff * Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss. * Breadboard springs (in manufacture, expected end of July) * Nail-head parts - RECEIVED. * Documents * BS Assembly Procedure [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=4235| E1504235]], [[https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=D5CCFA70A378E0D0!195&authkey=!AM_usynuo9QI57g&ithint=folder,webloc|E1504235 draft]] * To-do list during Mark's vacation * Apply grease to jacks for assembly frame (Takahashi) * Finish assembly of BS IM, RM and IRM (Fabian). * Weigh IM/RM/IRM (Fabian, Hirata) * Pack/ship IM/RM/IRM to Kamioka (Hirata/Fabian). * Analyze geophone data (Mark, Shoda) * Remove glue from dummy BS face (Fabian) * Remove prism from dummy BS (Hirose, Fabian?) * Reglue flags and prisms (Tatsumi, Fabian) * Buy wire for BS and RM (Hirata) * Clean wire for BS and RM (Hirata) * Do fit/function test of winches (Fabian/Hirata) * Ship winches to Kamioka (Hirata/Fabian) * Work on BS simulation (Fabian) * Do Inventor assembly for SR2 in chamber and on assembly frame (Hirata) * Apply vacuum grease to jacks for BS assembly frame (Takahashi) * Write more of payload assembly procedure (Fabian) * Write more of main assembly procedure (Mark) * Longer term to-do list * Do BS Simulink model (Mark, Kokeyama) * Do 2D drawings of SR2 parts (Hirata) * Redesign SRx IM wire clamps for larger prisms, remachined RMs. * Order SRM/PRM parts (Hirata/Shoda) * Order SRx fasteners (Hirata) * Check SR RM machining test progress (Hirata) |

Type B (Mark)
Report for the week of 3/11
- Fabian helped Fujii-kun with the PRM most of the week. Hirata-san also helped at various times.
- Fabian monitored the SRM yaw drift. It gradually reversed but so far remained small. We will try resetting it to zero with the pico and see if the trend changes.
- Mark and Hirata-san debugged the BS:
- We inspected the payload section and quickly found the problem: two RM EQ stops were touching, on the +L (-X,+Y) side at the top. This was probably because the stops had been adjusted with the IP unlocked and sitting a few mm to -L, whereas now we have the DCCTRL running and have been locking the IP at the LVDT zero. We drove the IP to L=+1.5 mm as a near-worst case, and backed off all the stops to give several mm of margin. Then we zeroed the IP pitch, roll and yaw with the picos.
- We also opened the top of the BS and confirmed that the mechanical zero defined by the locking mechanism agreed with the LVDT zero. It was very close in L and T, but -728 µrad in Y, driven mostly by a -805 µm offset in H3. That much is probably not a dumb error but just a difference in technique among the three people using calipers to take data for the calibration.
- We then prepared the BS for close-up:
- We wiped and inspected the O-ring for the lid and replaced the lid.
- We wiped all accessible surfaces in the lower half of the tank, rescued some dropped items (some PEEK tube and a small nut) and un-immobilized the LBB.
- After all the above, the OL was a bit off-center but still on the QPD, and Nagano-san fairly quickly recovered the original alignment.
- Terrence rebuilt the BS TILT OL according to a new layout suggested by Simon, which avoids scrambling the pitch/yaw at the first steering mirror and greatly reduces the amount of diagonalization required. He started on the LEN OL, but unfortunately the QPD stage fell and bent the brackets holding two of the micrometers. It's useable but we haven't installed it yet.
- Terrence noticed some anomalous cross coupling on the SR2 (but not the SR3) and we investigated.
- We suspected it might be an odd position of the beam spot on the optic, so we took pictures through the camera and LED viewports of SR3, and opened the SR2 tank and used a white target, but the beam spots were in very similar positions - close to central vertically and about 3 cm to the left of center horizontally.
