DeSalvo (Univ. of Sannio), E. Majorana (INFN), J. van den Brand (NIKHEF), E. Hennes (NIKHEF), A. Bertolini (AEI/NIKHEF) EGO-ICRR Meeting (5 October, 2011)
Type-A: IP + GASF (5 stage) + Payload (23kg, cryogenic) Type-B: IP + GASF (3 stage) + Payload (10kg/20kg, room temp.) Type-C: Stack + Single/Double-pendulum (~1kg) Configuration
Type-A (2-layer structure) Upper tunnel containing pre-isolator(short IP and Top filter) 1.2m diameter 5m tall borehole containing standard filter chain Lower tunnel containing cryostat and payload
Type-B Top filter • IP base is supported by the outer frame. • Suspended/On-stack table is used for small optics. • Pre-isolator is the same as Type-A’s. Inverted pendulum 2-stage GASF Mirror
Type-C • Stack is based on TAMA’s design. • Rubber for stack is enclosed by bellows. • Differential evacuation is necessary for the bellows.
Simulation • Model calculation has been developed with design works. • Longitudinal mode by point mass model • (R. Takahashi) • Torsion mode by point momentum-of-inertial model • (T. Sekiguchi) • Full dimensional mode by rigid body model • (T. Sekiguchi & E. Majorana)
Type-A Point Mass Model Type-B Type-C (Filter4)
Displacement of test mass • The isolation above 2Hz is due to the heat link of 0.03Hz. • The 1% coupling from vertical displacement is comparable with the horizontal one. • Predicted displacements are consistent with the IFO noise budget above 5Hz.
Displacement of each mirror • Calculation for the Type-B system does not contain the effects due to the support structure for the IP. • Almost main optics are suspended by the Type-B payload on the stack in iLCGT.
Damping of torsion mode (Type-A) • The motions of filter 2~4 are also damped, if the torsion stiffness of each wire is optimal. • We need to optimize damping strength & torsion stiffness of every wires. A disc is suspended from the top filter. Permanent magnets attached to the disc damp the motion of filter 1 by eddy current.
Yaw motion of mirror The transfer function shows good damping.
Rigid body model Type-B • Each body has 6 DOF (X, Y, Z, θx, θy, θz). • Wire potential is divided into stretches and torsions. • GAS works as a one-dimensional ideal spring. • Elasticity of the heat links is taken into account. • No deformation of the bodies, no violin motions of the wires.

Displacement of mirror (Type-B) Displacement [m/rHz]
Angular motion of mirror • Monte Carlo simulation within the following asymmetries. • Wire length:±0.5 mm • Suspension point:±0.5 mm for x, y, z • Effective stiffness of the inverted pendulums:±50 % • Anchor point of the heat link:±5 cm Room temp. Cryogenic vibration Heat links
Angular Fluctuation of Mirror (Type-A) Anchor point of heat links, asymmetry in IPs Pitch Yaw Asymmetry in wire lengths/suspension points
Impact to the Sensitivity (Type-A) 1 mm Pitch resonance peak The effect due to the angular motion is relatively small except some resonance peaks.
