Monica VarvellaIEEE - GW Workshop Roma, October 21, SIGNAL EXTRACTION for 40m/AdvLIGO Arm cavity signals are extracted from beat between carrier and f 1 or f 2. Central part (Michelson, PR, SR) signals are extracted from beat between f 1 and f 2, not including arm cavity information. f1f1 -f 1 f2f2 -f 2 Carrier (Resonant on arms) Single demodulation Arm information Double demodulation Central part information ETMx Two modulations are used to separate high finesse, 4km long arm cavity signals from Central part (Michelson, PR, SR) signals. ETMy ITMy ITMx BS PRM SRM 4km f 1 = 33 MHz f 2 = 166 MHz f 1 = 9 MHz f 2 = 180 MHz 40madvLIGO

Monica VarvellaIEEE - GW Workshop Roma, October 21, SIDEBANDS of SIDEBANDS Desire to control short degrees of freedom (MICH, PRC, SRC) using beats between RF sidebands only (f 1 ±f 2 ), no carrier, to be immune to large signals from arm cavities Application of f 1 and f 2 using serial EOMs produces sidebands on sidebands, at (f 1 ±f 2 ), so that beats appear with carrier, corrupting signals for short dof’s. After considering several solutions, EOMs in parallel via Mach-Zehnder interferometer have been installed. Simulation Real world EOM2 EOM1 EOM = Electro-Optical-Modulator

Monica VarvellaIEEE - GW Workshop Roma, October 21, Control –Originally, using internal modulation with 33 MHz (f 1 ) to lock MZ –Might need to turn down 33, 166 (f 2 ) MHz during lock acquisition procedure; don’t want to lose MZ lock –Instead, put 29 MHz EOM (used for MC lock) into MZ east arm, and lock with that  now using 29MHz MACH-ZEHNDER on 40m PSL EOMs in seriesEOMs in parallel (Mach-Zehnder)
