Great discovery! Congratulations!

Now it is clear that we can do science with GW, if we do it right.

Key features of KAGRA

The detector is constructed underground Kamioka.  Reduction of seismic noise (to approximately 1/100).  Very high sensitivity. Cryogenic mirrors will be used to reduce the thermal noise (in the 2nd phase).

Schematic view of KAGRA optical system

  • KAGRA is a huge Michelson interferometer that has optical cavities in the arms and recycling
  • systems. (Very similar to LIGO and Virgo.)

3-km long optical cavities Finesse: 1550 Inside optical power: 400 kW

Joining the global GW network

The scientific output will be maximized by the global network. KAGRA wants to join the worldwide network of gravitational wave detection / astronomy as soon as it reaches to a high sensitivity.  MOU between LSC/Virgo/KAGRA.

Summary

  • KAGRA is a unique GW interferometer with the underground site

and the cryogenic technology.

  • We had the initial operation (iKAGRA) in March-April 2016.
  • We plan to start the initial cryogenic operation by the end of March

2018, and full configuration in early 2019(?).

  • KAGRA would like to contribute to the global network of

gravitational wave astronomy, a new area of astronomy.

  • We would like to enjoy the astronomy with GW!

Let us work together in KAGRA!
