  • Design and ASC scheme after we design one for AdvLIGO
  • Implement and test the new InGaAs, in-vac, high power, FTC WFS. The 40m WFS need not be

    • in-vac, but they should be packaged as such.
  • Measure spring stuff



  • This file attachment:40m.pdf contains some results for the 40m ASC sensing matrix.

The input for this calculation was taken from 40m web page: http://www.ligo.caltech.edu/~ajw/40m_upgrade.html. The loss per optic was increased from 37.5 ppm to more realistic 100 ppm.

DC Alignment

Below are two diagrams which illustrate the proposed method to align the 40m IFO while it is locked. Currently the controls are done using Perl scripting.

  • Figure 1. Diagram of the 40m IFO in-line arm cavity (XARM).

Labels - Figure 1:

IP_POS

Otherwise known as PZT1, located in front of the PRM. Steers the beam into the IFO.

IP_ANG

Otherwise known as PZT2, located after IP_POS and before the PRM. Also, steers the beam into the IFO.

ITMx

The ITM of the x-arm, ITMX.

ETMx

The ETM of the x-arm, ETMX.

PDH-err

The demodulated length control signal, C1:LSC-XARM_IN1.

TRX

The transmitted power of the x-arm, C1:LSC-TRX_OUT.

attachment:DC_ASC_Perp.png

  • Figure 2. Diagram of the 40m IFO perpendicular arm cavity (YARM).

Perpendicular Labels:

BS

Beamsplitter, steers the beam into the perpendicular arm cavity (y-arm).

ITMy

The ITM of the y-arm, ITMY.

ETMy

The ETM of the y-arm, ETMY.

PDH-err

The demodulated length control signal, C1:LSC-YARM_IN1.

TRY

The transmitted power of the y-arm, C1:LSC-TRY_OUT.
