This is a preliminary entry on the identification of 3rd violin mode harmonics with test masses (figures and further analysis will be entered later on). This information will be used to estimate mechanical losses.
Dates and times of injections: 2015-10-28 from 20:42:30 to 20:45:00 --> Injection on ITMX
2015-10-29 from 20:20:00 to 20:32:00 --> Injection on ITMY
2015-10-29 from 20:37:30 to 20:45:00 --> Injection on ETMX
2015-10-29 from 20:53:00 to 21:00:00 --> Injection on ETMY
Injection description: Fed back, in phase, DARM to penultimate mass coil drivers in pitch after bandpassing it between 1450 to 1500Hz.
Frequency modes identification (preliminary):
ITMX:
1463.09Hz, increased by factor 4
1467.96Hz, increased by factor 4
1462.31Hz, decreased by factor 1.3
ITMY:
1461.41Hz, increased by factor 4.6
1462.03Hz, decreased by factor 4
1463.09Hz, increased slightly
1470.38Hz, decreased slightly
1470. 83Hz, increased by factor 2
1472.5Hz, decreased by factor 9
ETMX:
1463.09Hz, decreased slightly by factor 1.077
1471.93Hz, increased by factor 6.6
1474.08Hz, increased by factor 4
1475.25Hz, increased by factor 9
1478. 17Hz, increased by factor 4
ETMY:
1482.6Hz, increased by factor 1.75
1484.67Hz, increased by factor of PI
Future measurement: We will do a similar injection with DARM fedback 90 degrees out of phase.
The filters we used do do the feedback are scattered somewhat randomly, based on what SFMs were not in use for damping:
As Borja said, each of these FMs is a bandpass from 1450 Hz to 1500 Hz. They have 120 dB of gain, and we use an additional 100 dB in another filter module.
