  166   Wed Jun 13 16:36:14 2012 Alex MauneyMiscaLIGO Modeling6/12 and 6/13 Daily Summary- Realized that the strange deformations
that we were seeing only occur on the face
nearest the ring heater, and not on the face
  
  168   Thu Jun 14 16:51:03 2012 Alex MauneyMiscaLIGO Modeling6/14/12 Daily Summary- Plugged the output of the model with
uniform heating into SIS using both modification
of the radius of curvature, and direct importation

- Investigated how changing the amount
  
  171   Tue Jun 19 16:24:52 2012 Alex MauneyMiscaLIGO Modeling6/19/12 Daily Summary- Did more modeling for different levels
of heating and different mesh densities for
the SIS input.

on the beam splitter from each arm (This
  
  178   Thu Jun 28 16:27:37 2012 Alex MauneyMiscaLIGO Modeling6/28/12 Daily Summary- Finished the MatLab code that both combines
two fields and simulates the adjustment of
the beamsplitter to minimize the power out
