2016/5/27 13:30 -

Room 210

Participants:Takahashi, Izhizaki, Fabian, Aso, Hirata, Ohishi, Mark, Akutsu, Sato

Overall Schedule

• The current overall schedule chart.

iKAGRA related activities

PR3

• PR3 post-run work status (Fujii)

bKAGRA preparation

Important Issues

• Suspended bread board
  

  • We have to make sure that the bread board suspension is properly damped

  • For a double pendulum, 46 magnets with 5mm gap will give the optimal damping. Takahashi will order magnets.

• Accelerometers for IP
  

  • Is Geophone too noisy for innertial damping in Kamioka ? (Shoda) Slides -> To be discussed in the next meeting.

  • NIKHEF accelerometers for BS
    • Test status (Fujii)
  • #Which accelerometers for SR ?
    • Buy from NIKHEF ? How much is the cost ?
    • Get the design from NIKHEF and produce them in Japan (ATC) ?

• Pre-isolator assembly and tests
  

  • What is the plan for SR Type-B

  • Takahashi and Mark will start the discussion on, where, who, when -> continue.

• Bottom filter local sensor/actuator for Type-A

  • Where to start
    

    • Start from checking the space available for the sensor/actuators (Sato)

  • #Fix EQ stop at the bottom: modify the design of the bottom part of the EQ stop to be tightly fit into the tube (Ishizaki)

• Dummy payload design for Type-A
  

  • Okutomi will make schematic design. Ishizaki will make drawings.
  • The mass needs to hold a large mirror
  • A moving mass for pitch control is necessary

  • Aso will talk to SEO about the cost

• Bottom Filter LVDT

  • Virgo people wants to produce ones for us.-> To be discussed at the next meeting

• Assembly frames
  • We need to combine things into one contract

  • Type-B assembly frame: order immediately (Takahashi)

Common Issues

• Wide OSEM production (Akutsu)
  • For BS test hanging, we need the wider version by mid-to-late June.
  • Got cost estimates for the small parts. Will order for 20 OSEMs.
    • Parts except for the flexible circuits were ordered. Delivery by the mid June.
    • For the flexible circuit, Akutsu will talk with Shoda for possible modifications.
      • Typical lead time for the flexible circuit: 1month for a completely new one, 2 weeks for the existing design.

• Length sensing OpLev

  • Optical design will be discussed in Optics Meeting.
• What shall we do with PR2

  • Fixing an OpLev component on the inner frame seems possible (Akutsu)

Electronics

• What are necessary in the next few weeks ?
  

  • Make a list of VIS electronics by the end of May (Shoda, Takahashi) -> List

    • Make a list for big suspensions + IMMT: Takahashi will update the list

    • Check the number of LVDT necessary: Mark+Takahashi

• #Watch dog system (Tanaka)
  • Wants to do tests with the existing PR3 sometime in fall ? Need coordination.
  • photo-MOS relay switch resistance fluctuation
    • Noise requirement for the resistance fluctuation is necessary (Aso)
      • If we require the resistance noise to be smaller than DAC noise, the allowed fluctuation is 10^-7 Ohm/sqrt(Hz)@10Hz.
      • Asking Michimua-kun to calculate the requirements from the suspension response.

    • Tanaka measured the photo-MOS relay resistance fluctuation-> 37mOhm RMS upper limit

      • Will make spectrum of the resistance fluctuation.

  • #The next step: Make a prototype with slow shutdown mechanism

Type-B

• KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB

• Task list/schedule

• Type B Past Week Summary
  • Fabian prepared a work space in the ATC cleanroom and moved in nearly all the parts for the dummy BS, RM, IM and IRM.

  • Fabian finally got perfect agreement between the Mathematica and Matlab models of the BS. (The wire thicknesses had in µm instead of mm, leading to some modes off by 1E3.) See FabianMathMat20160526.pdf.

  • Hirata-san remeasured the SF for the BS. He noted that the cap went on and came off easily (unlike some other filters) - good news. He also confirmed the blade configuration (which was different from in Inventor, but should not cause issues with the assembly frame).
  • Hirata-san worked on final details of the Mirapro order for the assembly frame.
  • Hirata-san and Takahashi-san washed a large batch of parts.
  • Tatsumi-san will glue flags, sapphire primary prisms and metal secondary prisms to the dummy BS some time in the week of 6/8. Fabian and possibly Mark and/or Hirata-san will travel to ICRR to help and observe.

  • Mark worked more on E1504235 BS Assembly Procedure (Draft on OneDrive)

• Discussions

  • Crane will not be available on 13-14 of June.

  • Review: fix the date (Mark)

  • Measurement of iKAGRA BS position will be done in the second week of June. Then it will be taken out of the chamber after that (Ohishi)
• IM, RM, IRM, dummy BS assembly
  • Fabian prepared space in the clean room used for the SF assembly and moved in nearly all parts.
  • Still need to find SDC-treated hook for maraging wire in IM.
  • Will start assembly 5/30
• Wires

  • Fabian continued analysis of RM wire thickness versus mode frequency: link, another link,yet another link (From last week: T1605106 /draft)

• Can we make SR wire breakers bigger?
  • Fukushima-san has not yet started the work. He will start soon (as of 5/27).
• Flags, Metal Prisms, Sapphire prisms RECEIVED
• Mirror box (Tatsumi)
  • Tatsumi-san is planning to use mirror box to put flags etc on dummy BS the week of 6/8. Fabian+1 will help/observe.
• An extra structure attached to the EQ stop to prevent tipping over of the BS.
  • Will consider if we can make it to the test hanging. But not critical for the test hanging.
  • No action since last week.
• Not enough crane height problem (Hirata, Saito)
  • No action since last week
• EQ stop screws, extensions and lock nuts RECEIVED

  • Signal generator and cable to be used for BS test. May order NIKHEF cards later if concern about AC-driven units in racks.
  • Need to get new longer versions of some previously ordered BF-PI and SF-PI cables (Takahashi).
  • Need to check previously ordered TM-BF and IM-BF OSEM cables have been flipped (Takahashi).
  • Decided to hand-make cables for geophones because previously ordered cables have no conductor on pin 5.

  • Stepper drive box (requested by Sekiguchi-san T1503385) is being designed, should be ready in time.
