  • Slide 3
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 3 Rough scale of the problem Many current AO systems are limited by vibration ALTAIR on Gemini sees vibration of ~10 mas rms after correction Survey of similar problems at several telescopes: Caroline Kulcsr ; Gaetano Sivo ; Henri-Franois Raynaud ; Benot Neichel ; Fran ois Rigaut, et al. "Vibrations in AO control: a short analysis of on-sky data around the world", Proc. SPIE 8447, Adaptive Optics Systems III, 84471C (September 13, 2012) For TMT the entire on-axis NFIRAOS budgeted wavefront error of 187 nm corresponds to only ~ 5 mas of tip/tilt

Segment dynamic displacement (due to vibration) 10nm Telescope image jitter (due to vibration) 10nm equivalent to 0.275 mas Pump impeller Balance Grade 6.3 ?
  • Slide 5
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 5 The questions in more detail What is the sensitivity of image quality to vibration? How does this vary with amplitude, frequency and location? What are the worst expected sources of vibration with respect to these sensitivities? What can be done to mitigate them? Do we need to increase AO error budget allocation to vibration? What standards/requirements do we have/will we develop to maintain acceptable vibration levels? How will we assess and verify vibration performance against predictions?
  • Slide 6
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 6 Finite Element Model FEM of telescope structure includes nodes for each M1 segment, M2, M3 and each instrument Optical sensitivity combined with nodal motions from FEM determines performance effects due to: image jitter M1 segment motion

  • Slide 8
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Modelling Goals Determine allowable vibration source amplitudes Assess: Relative influence of location of sources Main contributors to image jitter (M1, M2, M3, focal plane) Sensitivity to source input frequency 8
  • Slide 9
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Modelled Sources Unit forces are input at 6 locations Pier Also covers sources in facility building with an additional factor to account for attenuation through soil Instruments (NFIRAOS, MIRES) on Nasmyth platforms Laser Service Enclosure (LSE) Cable wraps (Az and El) 9

  • Slide 11
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.025.DRF01 Check spatial correctability on M1 11 M1 response at 30 Hz AO spatial correctability is good; correction is dominated by temporal bandwidth nm/N

  • Slide 13
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Model Results Summary All modeled telescope sources are roughly comparable in effect Pier forcing a factor of 10 less impact Locations in facility building likely reduce sources by an additional factor of 5-10 relative to pier Performance most sensitive to forces 5-20 Hz M1 soft actuators reduce M1 response at 30 Hz by factor of 10 Motion of M2 largest contributor to image motion above 10 Hz Residual dominated by image motion, not M1 above 10 Hz Means that feed-forward of M2 motion may be effective Narrowband rejection of tones may also help Internal flexibility of instruments not accounted for 13

  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 17 Source example in the summit facilities 4-pole induction motors on 60 Hz AC generates ~29 Hz but newer VFD equipment moves frequencies with system demand Do we want this? Need tight imbalance requirements and single or multi-stage isolation Large fluid cooler used to exhaust all TMT waste heat has 8 fans of Balance Quality Grade 1 Results in 10 N of force per rotor or worst-case in-phase imbalance of all 8 rotors equal to 80 N At 59 Hz even 1 kN should be acceptable but careful tracking of all equipment is required

  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Pipe vibration Konstantinos Vogiatzis has made some initial models of turbulent flow in coolant pipes Forces are low in straight runs, but elbows produce significant broad-band forces 18 TMT is considering replacing water-glycol with phase-change refrigerant to reduce coolant mass flow (and forces) by a factor of 10
  • Slide 19
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Impact of increasing the error budget allocation to vibration An increase from 14 nm to 30 nm would not dramatically reduce observing efficiency Roughly 3% impact in J band
  • Slide 20
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Things to do 20 On-going work needed to: Develop the allowable vibration source budget allocated to subsystems Improve estimate of propagation through soil (for enclosure and summit facility sources) Improve all source estimates Hopefully through force measurements made at a telescope near you!
  • Slide 21
  • TMT.SEN.PRE.13.040.REL01 Conclusions 21 Vibration sources on the telescope must be limited to a few Newtons Vibration sources in the facility must be limited to a few hundred Newtons Possibly need to increase AO error budget allocation to vibration Further mitigation may be possible via M2 feed-forward Narrow-band rejection algorithms Conventional cryocoolers are not acceptable for TMT Keep summit facility source frequencies at 60 Hz when possible Reduced sensitivities Allows effective use of ~ 5 Hz isolators
