Subject: Shaking test for LO beam AS beam to BHD DCPDs 

Some insights from the inside vacuum situation:

  • The beam is an incident near normal on PR2 close to the center of the optic. It wasn't hard to align this part, I'm very confident that we aligned it to the center of PR2. So I do not think the LO beam is ghost beam from PR2.
  • The place that is most susceptible to clipping is POP_SM5 mirror in front of LO1. The LO beam has little clearance from the edge of the mirror.
  • Another possibility of clipping in LO beam is through the cage of LO2. LO2 is a 45-degree incidence mirror, so it is possible we are clipping off the cage or seeing a ghost beam mixed in LO beam here.
  • The fact that moving PR2 is affecting LO beam is weird but doesn't necessarily mean it is a ghost from PR2.
