Temperature dependence of mirror mode frequencies
Using data obtained for the mirror modes identification, the temperature dependence of the frequency of the various mirror modes can be determined. Attached figures plot the change in frequency versus the temperature measured on the safety frame. Some observations:

1) All the lines of the NI and the 3939 Hz line of the WI have a temperature dependence of around 0.3 Hz/K, the 5642 Hz line has 0.6 Hz/K and the 5652 and 5660 Hz lines move with only 0.1 Hz/K. This might indicate some fundamental difference between the various resonances. Note that the data was taken during a thermal transient, more data is needed for accurate numbers.

2) The 3939 Hz line of the WI is a much cleaner signal than all the other lines, maybe because this resonance has a very high Q. (Note that the visible 'steps' are caused by digitization noise of the thermometer.)
