Overview
• Flattening P45 thin shell with bias
magnets.
• Position noise characterization with new
electronics.
• Thin shell step response.
• Chopping? Chopping!
• Test tower optical bench.

• Different gain on different rings
– Proportional: Inner/Mid 0.1N/mm
Outer 0.1N/mm
– Derivative:
Inner 45 Ns/m
Mid 43 Ns/m
Outer 90 Ns/m
• Double derivative guard pole at 15kHz
High derivative means air damping substitution

Optical test tower (1)
GOALS:
• Avoid air convection
• Minimum hexapod
movement to correct
defocus term in the
optical path
SOLUTION:
Local thermal stability
in all tower length
within 0.1 ◦C
(ex: INVAR support
add only 30 nm
defocus term)

Summary
• Bias magnets increase the safety and
induce acceptable mirror figuring errors.
• P45 new control devices and sensors are
ok!
• We can work easily from 68mm to 130 mm.
• New electronics improved settling time.
• Chopping require optimization but we are
not so far!
• The temperature control of optical test
tower has been tested to be in spec.
