Today's activities

Workers: Simon, Miyo, Akutsu

  • Reconnected the coil's pins to 4-ohm ones; from U/V to C/D in P23.
  • After several trials, realized 20V 1A to the coil made the WAB moving.
    • The 1A was consistent with our experience at Mitaka in spite of the magnets had been Neodymium but now SmCo.

    • The supplied current was able to be monitored at the display on the power supplies, but the current got reducing step by step... firstly I was surprised, but this could show the resistance was increasing; I observed the current got down to 750mA (I have no idea if this would have reach in equilibrium); Simon touched the coil with gloved his finger and felt warm.
    • Well, don't keep the current turned on.
    • The power supplies are Matsusada Precision P4K-80L, which Akutsu brought two from Mitaka; they can output 16V max, so I connected them serially.

  • Attached 470nF parallelly to the transimpedances in the OSEM satellite box S1604897 that drives all the photosensors.

    • With the circuit, broad strange noise in the output from the photosensors are reduced to reach ADC noise level... to be reported in detail

  • Measured the damping behavior by exciting the WAB suspension by the coil actuator, and observed by the photosensors (3DoF) and the oplev (2DoF)
    • To be reported

  • (CAL people installed a TCam to see IYC, and now pictures of the WAB can be shot!)
  • [Ongoing] Need cares of water springs from anchor bolts for oplev pylons.

  • [Ongoing] Need to confirm what are the scratch lines made by the measurement by the KEK team last week.

Next plan

  • Change the pin assign so that enough current can flow to the coil.
  • Add capacitors to the transimpedances in the OSEM satellite box.
  • Complete the calibration of the oplev; the arm length was reported by Simon, so....
  • Check the balance of the suspended WAB with some wires and sensors are attached.
  • Check how the damping would be now after the replacement of the damping magnets.
  • Check the reproducibility of the alignment of the suspension among several modes.
  • Check heights of several points.
  • Take care of water spring??

Wanted!

  • Two burndy connectors, vacuum compatible.
  • Stages outside the chamber to ease wiping our legs.

  • Good rail(?) to move the WAB suspension in the cryostat in the main beam direction.

  • Chain block? to support the load in the chamber.

  • A clock to know the time easily.
  • M6 screw set.
