The BruCo report for the improved sensitivity can be found here:

Some highlights:
-
SRCL is now the winner between 20 and 70 Hz (plot 1)
-
Coherence with intensity noise (ISS_SECONDLOOP) is quite large, expecially at the jitter peaks (plot 2). This confirms Robert's conclusion that the IMC alignment is likely no more good
-
Coherence with calibration lines is high on a rathe large band (34-37 Hz, plot 3). Are we injecting multiple lines close to each other?
-
Magnetic line at about 75 Hz from EY (ring heater? plot 4)
-
Coherence with POP signals (RF9_Q and LF) is rather large everywhere (plot 5 and 6). I don't have any good explanation for this (frequency noise, intensity noise, quantum-correlated shot noise into the IFO?). This coherence is high with POP9_Q, POP18_I, AS_A_DC_SUM, AS_RF36, and a bit lower with POP45. There's not much coherence with REFL signals.
-
At even higher frequencies there is coherence with REFL_9I (plot 7)
