Suppress parametric instabilities
How do we eliminate parametric
oscillations in AdLIGO without spoiling our low
thermal noise floor?
Active feedback
Thermal detuning
Ring dampers

Ring Damper
IDEA:To suppress the mechanical Q’s of many modes, without sensibly affecting thermal noise floor

Previous results
• Rubber O-Rings
• Q’s decreased
• Broadband noise increased
• Kapton tape O-Rings
• Q’s unchanged
• Broadband noise unchanged

What can we do?
Monolithic rings
Problem: Need to eliminate screw.
IDEA: Heat rings and cool in place

Inductive heater for installing monolithic rings
• Induction coil induces an EMF in the ring damper
• Joule heating causes the ring to expand, so it will fit over the mirror
• Upon cooling, the ring shrinks to fit the barrel of the optic

Schmitt trigger
• Comparator circuit with positive feedback
• The effect of the positive feedback is to make the circuit have two thresholds, depending on the output state
• Greater stability
