LIGO- G D E7: An Instrument-builder’s Perspective Stan Whitcomb LIGO Caltech LSC Meeting Upper Limits Plenary Session 22 May 2002 LIGO Livingston Observatory

LIGO- G D LSC Meeting 2 From the August LSC Meeting: “E6” run before the end of 2001 (December for two full weeks) »At least one interferometer at each observatory with at least one interferometer in full recycled configuration »Goal of significant locked coincidence data, but sensitivity not guaranteed »Analysis goal: sensitivity curves (February), full analysis (April) »if not successful, repeat the E6 run in January 2002  

LIGO- G D LSC Meeting 3 Detector Status – Last LSC Meeting All in-vacuum installation complete »Continuing installation and commissioning of control systems LHO 2 km interferometer »Locks in recycled configuration for ~1 hour times »Sensitivity ~ rms »Working to improve both LLO 4 km interferometer »Locked as Michelson with F-P Arms »Problem with seismic noise at low frequencies LHO 4 km interferometer »Commissioning just beginning

LIGO- G D LSC Meeting 4 Projected Performance – Last LSC Meeting *Expect* LHO interferometers to be operating in recycled configuration »Depends on success with digital suspension controllers LLO may operate in recycled, or possibly just recombined, mode »Final decision about 1 November »Analog suspension controllers -> different channel names, noise, filtering, limits, etc. Expect (but do not guarantee!) up to x10 improvement over already achieved Most PEM channels will be operational (though of lower priority than main interferometer components)

LIGO- G D LSC Meeting 5 Sensitivity? Preliminary Hope to take “Preliminary” off soon Snapshot in time – not representative of typical behavior Does not represent time- domain search sensitivities

LIGO- G D LSC Meeting 6 Duty Cycle? ~60% for each detector individually ~20% triple coincidence (Reminder: Science Requirement Document goal is 75%) Preliminary Optimist: »First three days came close to this goal Pessimist : »This was only 2 weeks! What happens when we try for months? »Un-recycled is an easier configuration to lock

LIGO- G D LSC Meeting 7 Assessment: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Noise: »E7 spectral density shows steady progress from earlier levels »Too many bursts, too many lines, too much variability Duty Cycle: »E7 had extended locked sections (~10 hr) for LHO 2 km »….and extended (>24 hr) downtimes »Clearly demonstrated the need for seismic remediation at LLO Analyzability: »Successfully collected and archived the data »Need to better capture the state of the machine »Missing channels, confusing channel names, uncertain calibration Operations: »Dedication of the operators, enthusiasm of the scientific visitors »Need ability to read DMT monitor output from trend frames »Need for clearer procedures, guidelines for trouble shooting, etc.
