COLORED:

• mdc_d6.F
• ADC name = 'H2:LSC-AS_Q'
• 1 frame, 64 seconds, 16384 samples/sec
• format: 'f' = 32-bit floating point
• GPS start time: 682819370
• IFO Response function (ADC/h(strain)) from E2 run:
  zeros = [.74 .74 0 0]*2*pi
  poles = -[50.35 50.35 12.1 12.1 186]*2*pi
  k = -1.16e16 * 1e9 - we arbitrarily increase the sensitivity, with respect to E2, by 1e9/2000m - to make it interesting!
  (Note that this doesn't include the 336usec delay.)
  In the following figure, the red line shows the response function magnitude, computed analytically. The blue line is the ratio of the PSD of the FILTERED colored Gaussian synthetic noise to the unfiltered. If the filtering were perfect, they'd coincide.
  
• IFO INVERSE Response function (NOTE: in strain/ADC, NOT ADC/strain as described above!) from E2 run, as a file with f,Re(RF),Im(RF) triplets: mdc_e2rf.dat
• Amplitude (sqrt(power)) spectral density of noise, before and after filtering through IFO response function:
  
• Amplitude (sqrt(power)) spectral density of noise as a file with f,a pairs: mdc_asd1.dat
• Amplitude (sqrt(power)) spectral density of noise, AFTER filtering through IFO response function, in ADC/rtHz as a file with f,a pairs: mdc_asd2.dat
