A Diary of Ring heater changes 2020- Jan 2023

Below is all the ring heater changes while we are actively locking the IFO. Nothing in the box means the previous change remains.

Writng this diary to help decide if we can take some differential heating out of the Y-arm without ringing up any PIs.

Only TM changed since O3 is ITMY.

Date IX IY EX EY Reasoning
2020/03/30 0.48 1.37 0.44 0.4 O3 values

2022/08/11 - - - 1.2 PI at 40hours into lock 64440

2023/01/13 0.44 - 0 - Attempt to offload CO2X Annular 66801 (CO2 test 66853)
2023/02/01 - 0.4 - 1.0 To match X-arm. 67174 Not good so reverted over 02/03-02/07
2023/02/07 - 0 - 1.4 Reverted as cannot lock 67280

Georgia's CO2 test 66853 hints that a little less CO2X might be good but we didn't act on this.
