No coherence with PR3 OLDAMP Y.
(PR3 fluctuation was lower than the oplev noise or didn't move.)

F1 GAS is saturated again

F1 GAS of SR3 is now being saturated (previous saturation was reported in klog#34102).
TPs of 2kHz and 65kHz are shown in Fig.1.
Saturation is still caused only in high frequency due to the up-sampling process.

Figure 2 shows the 1-month trend of GAS output and temperature around SR3.
Slightly higher temperature (same as around 25 days ago) seems to be better for F1 GAS output.
Anyway, it's better to do the offload work (by height adjustment or temperature adjustment?) to remove DAC saturation.

Comment to Memo250707 (34478)
Both after the locked loss and increasing laser power, the SUM of the PR3 tilt and len QPD was not changed, so the effect of IR to PR3 oplev can be negligible.

Apart from the control bandwidth. Does PR3 oplev QPDs have IR filters set?? If no, it might be contamination from the main IR scattered light.

Comment to Memo250707 (34478)

Yokozawa-san,

Since current PRC2 ASC signals are fedback to the setpoint of PR3 OpLevs, the effect of WFS signals through the feedback is smaller than that of OpLev signals.
So, if ASC signals contaminates DARM, it should be also seen in PR3 OpLev signals.

I don't think OpLev feedback affects at such high frequency but could you check the signals?

Memo250707
In this morning, I noticed that the detection range was different about 1 Mpc even the ground motion (Human retion 1 - 3 Hz) level was almost similar (as shown in Fig.1.)
As you can see, the shape of 60 - 110 Hz was similar in (blue) 10:30 and (red) 13:10, but floor level increasing.
If we can find this issue, we may obtain the hint for next step

Fig.2. showed the coherence between DARM and feedback signal to PR3 yaw.
In current ASC, PR3 yaw signal can be obtained from WFS REFL 45 I.
As shown in klog34400, there are several coherence in 115 Hz 140 Hz and 160 Hz in PDA45I (and 45Q).
If we perform the reshaping of ASC filter for the PRC2, there are possibility to reduce the peaks (or > 100Hz feedback would be too low to fluctuate the PR3 mirror?)

Comment to Violin mode Q estimation (34436)

I used longer data to estimate the Q value of the violin modes.
This time I could set 4096s as the fft length.
Used data: GPS time = 1435056520s - 1435096620s

The results were obtained as follows:

  • The fitting performed better than before, primarily because more data points around the peaks could be used for fitting.
  • No peaks showed unreasonably large Q-values.
  • Most of the peaks have Q-values around 10^5.
  • A figure summarizing the fitting results for all peaks is attached. Peaks marked with an "X" indicate cases where the number of available data points was small or where the fitting clearly did not fit well.
  • All fitting results have been uploaded to Dropbox: link

Operation Shift Summary

Operators name: Tamaki, Yasui

Shift time: 9:00-17:00 (JST)

Check items:

  • CRY: The temperature of EX_REFBRT_HEAD was rapidly increased.  Consequently, the temperatures of REFBRT_BAR, BRT1 and BRT2 also started increasing, and BRT3 and BRT4 are expected to follow. 

  (According to the manual, we reported this issue to Ushiba-san and Kimura-san after the regular check at 10:00 and 16:00, because we observed a temperature increase of more than 10 K compared to the previous values.)

  • VAC: The pressure values of TMSX and EXC slightly increased due to the temperature rise mentioned above, but this is not caused by H2O.
  • TEMP: There was no issue.

IFO state (JST):

9:00 OBSERVING

12:50 LOCKLOSS due to the earthquake

Noise Subtraction from KAGRA O4c Data Using ICA

[Shu-Wei Yeh, Chia-Jui Chou]

We applied ICA to clean KAGRA strain data from 1435106958 to 1435111758 (00:49–02:09 UTC, June 28, 2025) [Ref. klog 34400], using a cleaning duration of 1200 seconds. The segment was divided into four intervals for testing noise subtraction: 1435106958, 1435108158, 1435109358, and 1435110558. Here, we present the results for the interval starting at 1435108158.

The central frequencies (f_c), step-by-step improvements, and the overall inspiral range improvement are listed below. We observed effective noise subtraction in the June 28 data.

For the remaining denoising results and the list of witness channels used, please refer to the attached slides here,  JGW-G2516738-v2.

The next step is testing DeepClean's performance on the June 28 data.

K1CALCS

Channels in JGW-L2314962

It's related to klog#34468
They were updated based on the latest value of optical gain of DARM and ETMX actuator efficiencies in klog#34466.

Changes were accepted on observation.snap (Fig.1), down.snap (Fig.2), and safe.snap (Fig.3).
Finally, numerical rounding errors were reverted after re-loading observation.snap as shown in Fig.4.

- No changes in guardian (Fig.2).
- Changes in SDF tables shown in Fig.3-4 are related to this klog#34467, klog#34469 (k1calcs), and klog#34464 (k1calex, k1caley).
- No changes in the model (Fig.5).

Finally, I raised CFC_LACTCH and IFO guardian moved from CALIB_NOT_READY to READY.

EYA Tcam Stoppage During Pcal Tcam Session

With Shingo Hido, Hirotaka Yuzurihara

This afternoon, during the Pcal Tcam session, the EYA Tcam stopped and could not capture images. An error message was displayed on the screen: "An error occurred while capturing frame for ZWO ASI294MC."

As a countermeasure, "Recovery" and "Force" under the "Recovery" menu were executed, but a GRD timeout error occurred and recovery was unsuccessful.
After manually setting the GRD to "DOWN," executing "Recovery" - "Recovery" restored normal operation.

If the same error occurs in the future, setting the GRD to "DOWN" before attempting recovery may be an effective procedure.
