Interferometer Characterization at the 40m prototype
Goals
To help the DRMI commissioning that will be performed at LLO.
Motivations
In the aLIGO schedule a DRMI test will start on May 2011 at LLO. Prior to the DRMI test we, the 40m lab, should help their commissioning to make the things smooth and hence allow to finish the commissioning in the shortest time. Moreover any commissioning tests that will be performed at LLO should be well predicted and tested at the 40m so that the people at the site can easily pass through all the commissioning tests and possibly can spend time for a real trouble shooting (commissioning) to fix unexpected issues.
- So for this purpose some recipes must be prepared by the 40m lab. Each recipe includes descriptions about how to make a commissioning test, how to estimate important parameters and the results at the 40m. Additionally some useful scripts must be developed at the 40m.

DRMI Characterization Plan at the 40m
Schnupp asymmetry measurement and its adjustment
Requirement
Schnupp asymmetry = 0.0342 [m] +/- XXX [mm]
The Schnupp asymmetry determines the reflectivity r and transmissivity t of the Michelson for the f1 and f2 sidebands when the carrier is kept in the dark condition. In the design the f2 sideband should be critical coupling in the dual recycling cavity . To achieve the critical coupling we should adjust r and t properly.
- According to a simulation the asymmetry should be within the precision of XXX mm to achieve more than 95 % of the power build up.
How to
- Here is an instruction how to measure the Schnupp asymmetry.
Results
- The result at the 40m was ... and the precision was +/- XXX mm. This implies us to fix the length of the asymmetry.
