Abstract

A series of Corner Compliance Measurements have been made with increasing static loads on a highly damped Research Grade honeycomb Optical Table with tuned absorbers. Test results are presented for static loads up to 50% of the table weight. Contrary to expectations, there is no significant degradation of maximum Compliance at table resonance as a result of the added loads.
