Purpose of the upgrade


Demonstration of the AdvLIGO interferometer technologies

►Prototyping of AdvLIGO LSC

  • Lock acquisition

    • "Prove AdvLIGO LSC actually works"
  • Green laser locking

    • "Realize lock of the arms independently from the main beam"
    • "Achieve semi-deterministic lock & smooth handing off"

  • Noise mechanisms / DC readout

    • "Discover and/or confirm by a model RSE specific noise couplings"

►Tuned / Detuned RSE comparison

  • "Address advantage and disadv. of the tuned/detuned configuration"
  • "Demonstrate smooth transition"

►RGC based digital control system

  • "Demonstrate complicated LSC code on the connected multiple systems"
  • "Establish rapid prototyping methods with simulated plants on the processors"


To do anything useful to make the AdvLIGO easier / faster

►DC&Dither technologies

  • Offset lock and handoffs
  • AF WFS technique
    • "Develop and characterize various new useful techniques"

►Interferometer Diagnosis

  • Cavity characterization using aux. laser injection
    • "Provide a method of precise in-situ characterization of the interferometer"

►Development / test bench of advanced technologies

  • GigE CCD WFS technique
  • Adaptive noise cancellation
    • "Demonstrate how it works"
    • "Understand and improve its limitations"
