Plot of Squeezing and No - Squeezing Quiet Times between 04a and

Jennie W, Sheila

Time for No Squeezing in 04a: 20/12/2023 18:10:00 UTC

Time for Squeezing in 04a: 12/01/2024 01:35:15 UTC

Time for No squeezing pre ER16: 17/03/2024 04:45:31 UTC

Time for Squeezing pre ER16: 17/03/2024 08:18:46 UTC

 

I used the calibration from 15th March for the pre-ER16 data - 20240315T01223Z

and the calibration from 27th October 2023 for the 04a data - 20231027T203619Z

 

Integrating the area under the curve using the cursors in DTT, the RMS motion in 200Hz to 230 Hz for the pre-ER16 data is roughly 4% higher than for the 04a data.

 

I am going to try plotting the excess noise in the no sqz data now vs. that in 04a to get more of an idea if this excess noise is consistent with technical noise and can explain the discrepancy in the SQZ noise now and in 04a.

For info here is the correlated noise budget from 13th March that Craig did.
