[Sugimoto, Enomoto]
We evaluated the sensing noise of the ALS system with and without the fiber noise cancellation.
We found that the cancellation successfully reduced the sensing noise of the ALS!!!
See the following spectra.
= Method =
Same as 7546.
We locked the main laser frequency to the X arm, and evaluated the ALS CARM signal in this condition.
This tells us the sensing noise of the ALS system as a whole.
We used SUMMING node and universal whitening filters as whitening filers.
= Note =
- 60 Hz hum noise is larger than that observed in the X arm commissioning (7561, for example). Currently these lines are limiting the RMS.
One reason we soon came up with is that we left an oscilloscope connected to servos today.
In any case, we will investigate about this from tomorrow.
