Abstract:

Replacement for the ERM (D080116) with an annulus ERM as recommended in LIGO-T0900582,
-V3 annulus is based on a rework of existing ERMs, requiring a modification of the penultimate reaction mass. The impetus for the change is the lack of availability of the SF2 glass and significant cost and schedule savings.
