There are two parts in the technote. The first one is a general study where we analyse the vibrations recorded by the VMS during various slews in elevation and azimuth.
We also analyze the VMS data when the TMA is in tracking mode.

In the second part, we perform a detailed unvestigation of a peculiar event occuring on June 28th, 2023 around 1:08 am where a strong noise were reported during and after an elevation slew.
