Presentation Transcript

  1. Current status (ELiTES and IMPEX sapphire fiber) Kazuhiro Yamamoto Institute for Cosmic Ray Research The university of Tokyo KAGRA(LCGT) cryogenic payload meeting 6 June 2012

  2. ELiTES What is the ELiTES ? Grant for collaboration between KAGRA and ET (Mar. 2012 - Feb. 2016) European people can visit Japan for KAGRA. However, we discussing visitors from Japan to Europe. Candidates (young reserachers) are discussed, but I do not mention their name here.

  3. First ‘quasi’ ELiTES face to face meeting 14 May 2012(Hawaii, GWADW2012)

  4. ELiTES Research topics in Europe Jena (Ronny Nawrodt) Mechanical (Q) and optical (refractive index) properties at cryogenic temperature Sapphire fibers (thermal conductivity vs surface treatment) Manufacturing ribbon and so on ? (I am not so sure ... ) Clamp and pendulum Q

  5. ELiTES Research topics in Europe Jena (Ronny Nawrodt) Not so long stay (a few months) This stay should be a trigger of research. European (Japanese) reserachers learn something in Japan (Europe) and contine thier research in Europe (Japan).

  6. ELiTES Research topics in Europe Hannover (Harald Lueck) No plan for visitors to Japan Vibration isolation system (10m prototype) Last isolation system will be installed in a few months!

  7. ELiTES Research topics in Europe Glasgow (Sheila Rowan) Coating (optical and mechanical loss) Bonding

  8. ELiTES Research topics in Europe Rome (Ettore Majorana) Cryogenic experiment : Rome and Virgo site Material properties (Q, thermal conductivity) Vibration of cryocooler Heat links

  9. ELiTES Research topics in Europe Nikhef : Vibration isolation Sannio : Riccardo, could you show your idea ?

  10. ELiTES If you (Japanese young researchers) are interested with topics in Europe, let us know. Japanese group should summarize (1)what European researchers can research in Japan (2)what Japanese researchers would like to ask European group (reserach topics)

  11. ELiTES WP3: Cooling system (K. Somiya) First meeting : 1st of June http://gwwiki.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/JGWwiki/LCGT/ELiTES/WP3 Crygenic-related issues Contamination control Cryo-cooler vibration isolation Cooling-Heating time reduction Scattering light Cryogenic-unrelated issues] Gravity-gradient noise reduction Underground-related issues (tunnel tilt etc.)

  12. ELiTES General meeting : 3rd and 4th of October European Union delegation in Japan (Nearest station : Hiroo (Tokyo Metro)) K. Somiya plan (Grant for Germany-Japan) August 2012 : Small workshop in Jena October 2012 : Small workhop in Japan Good chance for discussion about research topics and visiting labs.

  13. IMPEX sapphire fiber Sapphire fibers to suspend sapphire mirrors Sapphire fibers from MolTech GmbH (Germany)

  14. IMPEX sapphire fiber Ettore Majorana asked IMPEX (German company). They can made similar fibers (head on the both end). Shoter fibers (about 100 mm) for test are not so expensive.

  15. IMPEX sapphire fiber
