Update Pcal Reconstruction model for both EX and EY

[Jinshui Tian, Yuli Liang, Dan Chen]

On 2026/07/09, we updated the Pcal Reconstruction model for both EX and EY so the output Pcal beam position is consistent with the calculation in the paper: Performance of the KAGRA photon calibrators during the fourth joint observing run with LIGO and Virgo - IOPscience.

We deployed the updated model files into the production environment via k1ctr27 (replacing the original files) and confirmed the GRD and SDF statuses.

We then recompiled, installed, and restarted the front-end models as follows:
EX Model (k1ex0):

ssh k1ex0
cdscode 
make k1calex 
make install-k1calex 
startk1calex

EY Model (k1ey0):

ssh k1ey0
cdscode 
make k1caley
make install-k1caley
startk1caley

From ndscope, observable value steps were noted on the following channels:
EX Channels: K1:CAL-PCAL_EX_A_X_MON & K1:CAL-PCAL_EX_A_Y_MON at GPS: 1467955200 s
EY Channels: K1:CAL-PCAL_EY_A_X_MON & K1:CAL-PCAL_EY_A_Y_MON at GPS: 1467956800 s

We plan to calculate and compare the pre- and post-update channel data tomorrow.

This figure compares two sets of results: the 'after' dataset, calculated using the formula from the paper ( Performance of the KAGRA photon calibrators during the fourth joint observing run with LIGO and Virgo) with input parameters read directly, and the 'real-time measure' dataset, retrieved directly from the CAL_PCAL_EX_REC.adl and CAL_PCAL_EY_REC.adl. The calculated relative deviation between the model-predicted values and the direct real-time measurements is virtually zero.
We checked the updated model has successfully corrected the previous systematic error.
