Status report

The installation of the mode-cleaner system is a success. The mode-cleaner lock works automatically overnight together with the auto-alignment. It runs very regularly with only one reset within fourteen hours. Now we are studying the long-term drift in order to obtain data for a better optimization. The whole system has been stabilized on the power-recycling cavity.
The suspension for the beamsplitter is ready. All the installations in the north-end building are finished, up to the control program (network problems).


Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year
