Preliminary results from Livingston VE vibration & acoustic testing

Document #:

LIGO-T980121-v1

T - Technical notes

Abstract:

From 12/4 through 12/7/98, Kyle Martini of Cambridge Acoustical Associates (CAA) conducted vibration and acoustic testing of the LIGO Vacuum Equipment at the Livingston site, under con- tract from Process Systems International (PSI). M. Zucker monitored and assisted these tests, which are primarily designed to evaluate structural and acoustic noise introduced by equipment provided by PSI, and to identify transmission paths for this noise to sensitive points of the LIGO detector.
