Alignment Sensing & Stabilization system
Overview
This is a dither based system. The idea is to dither (in pitch and yaw) all of the interferometer optics. We then read out the power (arm powers, PRC power, etc.) and demodulate at the dither frequencies. We can then feedback to control the full interferometer alignment.
The concept is the same as what we use to do the initial alignment of the interferometer. It was previously tried by Valera and Bram, but never worked for some reason...
