bKAGRA preparation

• Three big categories of the tasks
  • Type-A: Leader = Takahashi: Task list, team members
  • Type-B (BS and SRC): Leader = Mark: Task list, team members
  • Type-Bp modification: Continue discussion (Aso, Raffaele)

Common Issues

• Wire breaker problem (Mark, Tatsumi)
  • Prism removal from PR2
    • Not yet ready
  • BS prism preparation
    • Contacted the company LIGO used for the possibility of buying sapphire prisms (Mark)
    • They are happy to take an order. No Japanese agent. But international order can be taken.

    • Will ask for the lead time to the company (Mark) Drawing to be sent (LIGO drawing) -> Send the drawing to company immediately

  • Can we make SR wire breakers bigger ?

    • Asked Fuskushima-san about the possibility of widening the slits (Takahashi) -> It is possible but there is a risk of slight deformation.

    • We will try to widen the slit using the dirty RM used for the test hanging.

    • We need to decide on how much to widen. Check what happens if we use 5mm tall prism on CAD (Hirata) -> Result

• RM cleaning (Takahashi)

  • Which RMs are really clean ?-> 1st one and the 2nd one have different finish. So only the 1st one is dirty.

  • For the cleaning purpose, using a leutor seems enough
