Here a tentative measurement of transfer function of far-field magnetic fields at WEB using the injected line comb (June 6).
Figures 1,2,3 show the injected comb (N,W and V magnetometers), 11 Hz spaced, done issuing manually one ACL_RAMP_CH command in ENVnoise to generate a saw-tooth like signal.
Figure 4 shows the TF (calibrated hrec/nT). Only the first 3 lines (11,33,44Hz) produced a visile effect in Hrec, elsewere the TF is just an upper limit. Figures 5 and 6 show the TF for the other two magnetometers.
Figure 7 shows the projection. It falls at least a factor 10 below order of the sensitivity. Figures 8 and 9 show the projection for the other two magnetometers.This result is consistent with the white noise injection (see previous comment by Federico).
Conclusions:
- This result indicates that the WEB magnetically coherent noise in Hrec that we observe around 40-45Hz should not couple through the TM magnets.
- Measurements have to be repeated injecting more intense lines at high frequency to better measure TF (next Tuesday calibration will inject the usual set of lines at WEB, 46080)
- The sawtooth injection coulb be an alternative method to injecting a lines in sequence as currently done by the MagneticInjection process. However the gain is not probably much. Figure 10 shows another test sawtooth injection that we did on June 11. The current amplitude is set to the maximum (avoiding distotion and saturaton of theamplifier) and the amplitude of magnetic lines is of few nT, rapidly decreasing at high frequency (but we can gain as sqrt of injetion time) while with the current way of injecting we have at least 1nT at all frequencies (up to 500Hz). The two methods are likely equivalent.
