Report on hydroxide catalysis bonding done at LHO in March and April 2011

Document #:

LIGO-T1100238-v2

Document type:

T - Technical notes

Abstract:

Ears were bonded to four penultimate masses (PM ITM04, PM ITM01, PM ETM04, PM ETM03) and one test mass (TM ETM02) in September 2010 and March and April 2011. Prisms and magnet flag bases were glued to one penultimate mass (PM ITM04).
The penultimate masses were also weighed.
