ITMY Arm Cavity Baffle Installed
Mitchell R, Mike V, Travis S
Today the ITMY ACB suspension and box assemblies were installed in BSC1. There is good clearance with respect to the ITMY suspension.
Pushers and clamps are installed in preparation for alignment work to commence on Monday.
The photodiode cable is still to be connected followed by a functionality check by Richard M.
The full payload is not in place; masses currently at clean and bake will be installed Monday, followed by a short period of balancing.
Attached is a photo of the installed baffle, along with a bonus shot of a happy Mitch.
