  5. Requirements and Answers Basic requirements from LCGT cryogenic Answer to the requirements • Temperature of the test mass/mirror : 20 [K] • Inner radiation shield have to be cooled to < 8 K • The mirror have to be cooled without introducing • excess noise, especially vibration due to cryocoolers. • Easy access and enough capacity • to installation work around the mirror. • Satisfy ultra high vacuum specification < 10-7 Pa • Adopt Pulse Tube-type Cryo-cooler units • with very low vibration mount • based on the CLIO type cooler. • Adopt f2200 of inner diameter of flanges • for installation work of the mirror and suspension. • Analysed the cryostat response to • ground motion at Kamioka-mine. • Heat load from components as low as possible. • Develop very low out gas super insulation system for radiation heat load for ultra high vacuum • specification < 10-7 Pa

  12. Outline • Concept of the LCGT cryogenics • Structure and Response to • ground motion at CLIO/Kamioka mine • Thermal Budget of the cryostat • Estimation of heat load of the Mirror • from the beam duct shields • (by Mr. SAKAKIBARA) • Summary

  13. Estimation of heat load from the beam duct shieldsof the Mirror in the Cryostat • Thermal radiation from opening of 500 mm in diameter • Cooling power 3.6 W at 4 K (inner shield, 4 pulse tube cryo-coolers of 0.9 W at 4 K) • Thermal radiation appears to be reduced by reducing solid angle

  14. Problem experienced in CLIO • Thermal radiation reflected by metal shield pipe • Incident power (calculated using ray trace model, experimentally verified by T. Tomaru, et al. 2008 ) • Very large compared with solid angle mirror 300 K 4 K animation

  15. Reducing heat load by baffles • Incident power calculated using ray trace model by counting up number of reflections (Aluminum of A1070 measured at 10 mm, 100 K) 300 K 4 K animation

  16. Result of calculation R=0.94 R=0.94±0.02 Worse case R=0.96 P=52.4 mW Better case R=0.92 P=17.6 mW • The better result for the case that intervals of baffles are not equal to each other • If intervals of baffles are equal, ray whose angle passes through one baffle also passes • the other baffles mirror 300 K 4 K 16 x=0 m x=20 m

  17. Diamond Like Carbon coating DLC coating • Baffles whose room temperature sides are coated with DLC • Assuming reflectivity 0.35 (measured at 1 mm at room temperature by T. Tomaru, et al. 2005) • Preparation for measurement at 10 mm, cryogenic temperature is now underway Heat absorbed by baffles Heat load becomes smaller

  18. Summary 1 • Sum of heat load from openings of cryostat can be sufficiently reduced by baffles • 37 mW (18.4 mW x2) • Problem in CLIO solved • One prototype duct shield will be constructed until the end of March, 2013. • The duct shield will be tested to verify this calculation with the mirror cryostat.

  19. Summary 2 • The design of the mirror cryostat for LCGT satisfying requirements was almost finished. • The production of the components for the cryostat will be started after decided contractor. • Performance of the first cryostat will be demonstrated at the factory of the contractor on the mid of 2012 Jfy. We would like to discuss the detailed design process of the cryostat with participants of GWADW conference after this talk.
