Modal analysis for KAGRA Duct Shield Gravitational Direction 5m Φ800 Fixed points We analyzed the resonance peaks of the vacuum chamber without bellows and the inner shield. Mode frequency are calculated from 20 Hz to 100 Hz.
Shape of duct shield at each resonant frequency. Resonant Frequency F1 18.85 Hz F2 25.48 Hz F3 38.52 Hz F4 40.28 Hz F5 40.99 Hz F6 43.65 Hz F7 44.20 Hz F8 46.31 Hz F9 49.01 Hz F10 59.07 Hz F11 63.66 Hz F12 64.58 Hz F13 68.25 Hz F14 68.69 Hz F15 73.87 Hz F16 77.00 Hz F17 77.16 Hz F18 94.00 Hz F19 96.18 Hz F20 99.86 Hz F17 77.16 Hz F18 94.00 Hz F20 99.86 Hz F19 96.18 Hz It was confirmed that the most of resonant frequencies are cause of strength of the vacuum chamber, and weaker than that of inner shield. These results have been feedback to the duct shield design.

Summary 1. KAGRA cryogenics consisting of cryostat and cryo- cooler units was designed, fabricated, and tested their performances during 2011JFY and 2012JFY. 2. At the performance test, following items were confirmed and verified; • The cooling and vibration performance of sixteen cryocooler units. • The cooling performance of all the four cryostats. • Vibration on the surface of inner radiation shield. • Experiment with half size of dummy cryo-payload 3. Experiment with proto type duct shield was conducted, and result was agreed with predicted heat load. But, need more analysis work. 4. Design of the production of duct shield were almost finished. Now, We are focusing our work on fabrication of the duct shields and preparing performance test.
