Observing performance:
H1 achieved an average observing duty cycle of 48.77% for the week. Operations started with several issues but showed a notable recovery toward the weekend, reaching 87.1% on Saturday and Sunday.
Environmental disturbances:
The main causes of lock losses were earthquake-band and wind-band motion. Three significant seismic events were recorded: a magnitude 6.0 earthquake in Russia on Tuesday, 6.6 in Japan on Sunday, and 5.7 in Mexico on Friday. Additionally, there was considerable microseismic activity throughout the week.
Spectral features:
Persistent violin modes were observed, particularly the fundamental around 500 Hz.
Notable noise events:
Tuesday exhibited multiple BNS range drops and broadband noise excess across all frequencies starting around 10 UTC. Probably related with ETMX violin mode ring-up which caused excess noise in DARM, leading to lock loss. This day also registered the highest line count of the week, reaching approximately 5000.
Detchar tab:
Hveto pages were not generated for the last three days of the week.
FSCAN plots reported the lowest line count on Friday (~1900 lines) and the highest on Tuesday (~5000 lines) above treshold.
Relevant Round Winners:
No winners in monday, but H1:LSC-POP_A_LF_OUT_DQ repeated 3rd place in the past 7 days.
Tuesday: H1:SUS-ETMX_L3_OPLEV_PIT_OUT_DQ top 1 for second time in 7 days.
