  1. Feb 8, 2017 ELiTES 5th general meeting Status of KAGRA Yuta Michimura Department of Physics, University of Tokyo

  2. KAGRA Project • Constructed in Kamioka mine • Underground and cryogenic • 300+ collaborators from 90+ institutes Kamioka

  3. Roadmap of KAGRA • Completed first test run at room temperature.Working for cryogenic test run. • Baseline KAGRA (bKAGRA) in 3 phases. Suspension installation Cryogenics development Cryo. payload installation Cryo. payload upgrade Cool down Cool down IFO upgrade Noise hunting Initial KAGRA Michelson atroom temp. Test run Phase 1 Michelson at cryogenic temp. Test run Phase 2 RSE atroom temp. Test run Phase 3 RSE atcryogenic temp. Observation run

  4. Observation Scenario • With 25-40 Mpc in 2020, 40-140 Mpc in 2021 Living Reviews in Relativity 19, 1 (2016) to be updated

  5. KAGRA Full Configuration ETMY Sapphire 20 K • RSE interferometer • Sapphire test massesat 20 K 3 km IMC ITMY PRM PR2 IFI ITMX ETMX Laser 1064 nm 200 W 3 km BS PR3 SR2 SR3 SRM GW signal

  6. Initial KAGRA Configuration ETMY • 3 km Michelsonat room temperature • Low power • Simplified suspension • At air pressure IMC PR2 IFI ETMX Laser 1064 nm 200 W BS PR3 GW Signal

  7. iKAGRATest Run in 2016 • Period - March 25 to 31 - April 11 to 25 • Purpose - confirm layout of the 3 km vacuum ducts - test controls, data transfer, observation shift, etc. - get environmental data - obtain experiences of the management and operation of the km-class interferometer http://kyodonews.net/news/2016/03/25/54510

  8. iKAGRASensitivity • ~3e-15 /rtHz @ 100 Hz • Limited by seismic noise, acoustic noise andADCnoise • Reductionpossible inbKAGRA seismic noise acoustic noise ADC noise plot by T. Shimoda, M. Nakano, Y. Michimura

  9. Data Transfer • Real time transferto ICRR Kashiwaand Osaka CityUniv. (~3 sec latency, ~ 200 MB/sec) • Delayed mirroringat Academia Sinica, Taiwanand KISTI, Daejeon • 7.5 TB in total figure by N. Kanda

  10. Hardware Injection signal injection • Right after 2nd iKAGRA run • Gravitational waveforms of CBC, Supernovae, etc. • Important end-to-end test Laser Data Acquisition Transfer Analysis GW?

  11. Next step: bKAGRA Phase 1 ETMY Cryogenic sapphire • 3 km Michelson • Sapphire ETMs atcryogenic temperature • Deadline: March 2018 IMC PRM PR2 IFI ETMX Laser 1064 nm 2 W misaligned BS PR3 SR2 SR3 GW signal

  12. bKAGRA Phase 1 Schedule • More suspensions, cryogenics, PSL upgrade PR3 PRM PR2 BS SR2 SR3 ETMY upper ETMX upper ETMY cryo-payload ETMX cryo-payload ETMs coating HCB ETMY cool down PSL upgrade ETMX cool down IMC initial alignment Lock

  13. Suspension Installation ETMY • Test hanging, pre-assembly on-going at the site BS PR3

  14. Cryogenics • Magnetic noise, vibration measurements at cryostats at the site on-going • Cryopayload test at KEK, HCB test at NAOJ • Risk of ETM coating delay (preparing spares) dummy mirror accelerometer ear

  15. Input Optics Upgrade • Input Mode Cleaner (IMC) magnets replaced • Input Mode Matching Telescope (IMMT) suspensions installed • iKAGRA Pre-stabilized Laser (PSL) disassembled,bKAGRA PSL being assembled IMMT1

  16. Summary • Successfully completed the first test run at room temperature (iKAGRA) • Working hard for the first cryogenic test run by March 2018 (bKAGRA Phase 1) • The first observation run in ~2020 • Stay tuned to KAGRA elog (klog)http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/
