Mitigation Of Wide Angle Scatter From Hr Surface Of The Test Mass with the Arm Cavity Baffle

Document #:

LIGO-T1100113-v3

Document type:

T - Technical notes

Abstract:

The wide angle scatter from the test mass HR surface can be totally mitigated by placing an extendable box structure on the back side of the Arm Cavity Baffle that catches all of the scattered light.
