Violin Mode Identified

I have measured the violin mode using the most recent lock data (February 10th ~5pm). Due to the lack of precisions in the existing information and the mismatch in values I was not able to identify any of the peak except for the ITMX BR (Back Right) at 499.9 Hz. The violin mode found in the recent lock data are as follow:

499.9, 505.58, 505.71, 505.80, 505.85, 505.92, 506.92, 507.16, 507.20, 507.36, 508.01, 508.15, 508.20, 508.85 Hz 

The (fundamental harmonic) violin mode is expected to be somewhere between 500Hz and 520 Hz. Not every line is present - possibly due to high noise floor.

 

The violin mode has been previously identified as follow:

ITMY (alog11184) Frequency (Hz) Bin Width (Hz)
BL 501.5 0.25
BR 501.3 0.25
FL 504.2 0.25
FR 502.8 0.25
ETMY (alog9359)    
BL 508 0.125
BR 508.1 0.125
FL 507.9 0.125
FR 507.6 0.125
ITMX (alog11044)    
BL 501.2 0.06
BR 499.9 0.06
FL 502.2 0.06
FR 500.8 0.06
ETMX (alog6858)    
BL 505 ?
BR 506.5 ?
FL 506.5 ?
FR 505 ?

 

Positions of the wire:

BL = Back Left

BR = Back Right

FL = Front Left

FR = Front Right

 

Where's left and where's right you ask? I'm trying to find the answer myself!

The designations back, front, left and right refer to looking at the reflective coating of the optic - so looking at the mirror from inside the arm.
Don't forget that each mode will be split by about 0.07 Hz (based on LLO fibers) with relative amplitudes dependent on orientation of the fiber axes.
