This week we glued prisms (primary - sapphire and secondary - metal) to the HRTS OM0 fused silica Optic (D2100495-V5-OM0-0001). The gluing measurement details are recorded in the DCC - google spreadsheet (T2600012), link given below,

Attachment01 and attachment02 shows the prism-optic in the prism gluing jig.

Attachment03 and attachment04 shows the base for the Bosem magnet/flag glued to the AR side of the optic.

Attachment05 and attachment06 shows the two prisms glued on both the sides of the barrel of the optic. Notice that the arrow points to the HR surface and there is only one scribe line on the optic. While in the jig the arrow should be pointing down and on the right hand side of the gluing fixture (facing down).

The optic is now on its way to LLO and will be suspended in OM0 in HAM6 chamber.
