= KAGRA Filter Cavity Kick-off meeting = == Date/Time/Location == 2021 Jan. 20th from 10AM Connection: KAGRA Zoom2 == Abstract == This is a project to install a filter cavity into KAGRA. It is not funded yet, but we should start preliminary design studies to prepare for the time when a fund is available. This meeting's purpose is to gather interested people and identify potential tasks to start this project. == Minutes == * Introduction (Aso) [[https://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=12478|Slides]] * Technical overview (Matteo) * Identification of Tasks * Clarify the constraints * Check available space, location * Tomaru-san started investigation with Araki-san * Near IYA, air ducts may interfere * Using X-arm is also an option to consider * Beam height choice (same as the main beam or lower) * Vacuum interface * Check available flanges on OMC or OMMT chambers * Can we penetrate the X-arm duct ? * Cryostat door interference if we use the same beam height as the main beam * Put GVs to make a removable section next to cryostats ? : risk of vacuum leak. * Vacuum modifications in conjunction with overall KAGRA vacuum upgrade ? * Conceptual design * Filter Cavity Optical Design * Squeezer design * Doubly resonant OPO * In-vac OPO ? * Interface optics design * Squeezer -> FC * FC -> MIF * Back scattering mitigation * Theoretical study on requirements * New IFI ? * Suspension design * Vacuum design * Baffles in the beam duct ? * Movable targets ? * Clean room design * Control system * FC LSC * FC ASC * ASC for FC->MIF coupling * Control system hardware * Analog electronics * DGS * Milestones for the conceptual design * Intermediate status review in April * Conceptual design review in July * Mutual review of the working group * Internal review by KAGRA members not involved in the working group * External review by LIGO/Virgo experts * Make a realistic budget * Make a project schedule * Confirm available members * We heard from participants about their interested area of contribution * Matteo and Aso will contact people individually for further discussion on the task assignment * Schedule regular meetings * We will hold biweekly meetings * Schedule of the meeting will be decided by Doodle poll. == Agenda == * Introduction (Aso) * Technical overview (Matteo) * Identification of Tasks * Clarify the constraints * Available space, location * Vacuum interface * Available flanges on OMC or OMMT chambers * Can we penetrate the X-arm duct ? * Cryostat door interference ? - Put GVs to make a removable section next to IYC * Vacuum modifications in conjunction with overall KAGRA vacuum upgrade ? * Preliminary design * Filter Cavity Optical Design * Squeezer design * Doubly resonant OPO * In-vac OPO ? * Interface optics design * Squeezer -> FC * FC -> MIF * Back scattering mitigation * Theoretical study on requirements * New IFI ? * Suspension design * Vacuum design * Control system * FC LSC * FC ASC * ASC for FC->MIF coupling * Control system hardware * Analog electronics * DGS * Milestones for the preliminary design * Intermediate check in March or April ? * Preliminary design review in July ? * Make a realistic budget * Make a project schedule * Confirm available members * Schedule regular meetings * Biweekly ?
