QUICK SUMMARY:

IFO stuck in initial alignment because SRM watchdog H1:SUS-SRM_M3_WDMON_STATE trip.
Watch dog tripped while we were in Initial alignmnet not before, and was not due to ground motion.

I logged in discovered the trip. Reset the watchdog and reselected myself for Remote OWL notifications.

J. Freed, 

Update on Double Mixer Progress 81593, Proceded through step 2a of the double mixer test plan T2400327. Initial results are sugesting a possible noise improvemnt compaired to the other options in the area of interest for SPI.

DM_PN1.pdf Shows the phase noise test run in step 2a of the Double Mixer Test plan. While not a true 1-to-1 comparison of the phase noise performance of the double mixer compered to other options (step 2b is for that), it shows that adding the double mixer into this system (except for the peaks) improves phase noise performance by a factor of 2-5 from 100 Hz to 20 kHz. Of note, there is a large peak are centered around the 4096 Hz that is of interest to SPI. As there was only a cursory attept to properly phase match the signals in the internals of the double mixer for this initial test, the 4096 Hz sideband was not properly removed. 

A possible cause of this phase miss match is our phase delayer inside the double mixer (ZMSCQ-2-90B) causes a phase delay of about 89.82 degrees at 80MHz and not the 90 degrees we are expecting.

Possible fixes

• Try noodling the digital phases of the 4096 Hz Sin and Cos to see if that makes a difference
• In analog, replace 90 deg splitter with normal splitter and try to create the 90 phase shift in a different way
  • A 90 deg phase delay component tuned specifically for 80 MHz
  • A high-pass filter / low-pass / band-pass filter that has 90 deg phase at 80 MHz.
  • Create a tunable phase shifter.

The very low frequency (<0.05Hz) contains DC noise caused by the external phase mismatch of the double mixer and the reference source for the phase noise measurments. It is not an indication of double mixer drift and there has not been yet investigations in drift.

TITLE: 12/07 Day Shift: 1530-0030 UTC (0730-1630 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Observing at 158Mpc
INCOMING OPERATOR: Oli
SHIFT SUMMARY:

IFO is in NLN and OBSERVING as of 14:14 UTC (11 hr lock).

Of note:

• SQZ dropped us out of OBSERVING and relocked automatically
• During the drop, we took the time to reinstate some of the cleared SDFs that Tony accepted, and then accepted those. All-in-all, I reloaded ALS_XARM, ALS_YARM and ISC_LOCK guardians. We also made the changes in the SDF screenshotted below.
• Hanford authorities informed Tyler (who informed me) that they will be conducting their military loud exercises. Robert confirmed that these would not hurt our observing data.

Corner Station Fans (attachment1)
- All fans are looking normal and within range.

Outbuilding Fans (attachment2)
- MY FAN1 accelerometer 1 has become a little more chaotic looking the past three days, but is still well within range. All other fans are looking normal and are within range.

The way that I used to run bruco didn't work for me today.  With help from Elenna and Camilla I was able to run it, so here is what I did:

ssh into ssh.ligo.org, select 4 for LHO cluster and c for ldas.pcdev1

made a fresh clone of https://git.ligo.org/gabriele-vajente/bruco in a directory called new_bruco

cd /home/sheila.dwyer/new_bruco/bruco

python -m bruco --ifo=H1 --channel=GDS-CALIB_STRAIN_CLEAN --gpsb=1417500178 --length=400 --outfs=4096 --fres=0.1 --dir=/home/sheila.dwyer/public_html/brucos/GDS_1417500178 --top=100 --webtop=20 --plot=html --nproc=20 --xlim=7:2000 --excluded=share/lho_excluded_channels_O4.txt

The bruco now appears at: https://ldas-jobs.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/~sheila.dwyer/brucos/GDS_1417500178/

This is for a quiet time overnight last night.

Input jitter does have a contribution, as Robert suspected based on looking at the DARM spectrum.  Jenne looked at cleaning, and plans to try out a new cleaning during Monday's commissoning window.

Note to Operators: During the CP1 fill (which starts daily at 10am) the CDS ALARM system shows RED because the LN2 Liquid Level Control Valve (LLCV) is ramped up to 100% open. The alarm system puts this channel into alarm when its value exceeds 50%. This alarm should clear within 1 minute of the end of the fill.

Fri Dec 06 10:07:29 2024 INFO: Fill completed in 7min 25secs

Gerardo confirmed a good fill curbside.

QUICK SUMMARY:

Looks like we got to NLN at 13:30 UTC but IFO couldn't go to OBSERVING, which caused guardian to call OWLOperator (Tony) - alog 81643

INCOMING OPERATOR: Ibrahim
SHIFT SUMMARY:
LOG:
H1 called me to help with SDF issues.
SUS ETMX and ITMX SDFs

These seemed like they were changed randomly in the night but also seemed like that may have unlocked the IFO if reverted so I accepted them.
But now that i'm looking back at Francisco's Alog I think some may have been intentional.
 

More than 1 IFO H1 call tonight:
H1 Called me earlier in the night and I slept though the calls because I did not realise my phone was not properly set up for this owl shift before I went to sleep.

Changing
H1:SUS-ETMX_L3_DRIVEALIGN_L2L_GAIN
H1:SUS-ETMX_L3_DRIVEALIGN_L2L_GAIN => 198.6643

First figure (kappa2drivealign_ndscope) is an ndscope of the relevant channels. The the second plot (top to bottom) is CAL-CS_TDEP_KAPPA_TST_OUT with a verticar marker aligned at a time where the uncertainty from CAL-CS_TDEP_PCAL_LINE3_UNCERTAINTY (third plot)  increased. This increase in uncertainty is expected from turning off lines before calibration measurement.

KAPPA_TST_OUT is around 1 from minute 5 to the marker, which is the objective of changing the drive gain.

LHO EndX measurement made today.

Lab measurements:
NOTES:
PS4 PS5 measurement used for the above measurement were made on 2024-09-23.
The Measurements done in the PCAL LAB today 2024-11-26 were significantly different from the last set of measurements. Due to a drop in the voltage reported in the following plots. 
https://git.ligo.org/Calibration/pcal/-/tree/master/O4/lab/measurements/t20241126_144208_PS4_PS5_FB?ref_type=heads
https://git.ligo.org/Calibration/pcal/-/tree/master/O4/lab/measurements/t20241126_160713_PS4_PS5_BF?ref_type=heads
And I will need review these further before re-running the ES data with these newest measurements.

This maybe due to some changes in the lab. More vetting time is needed.
