Input optics systems of the KAGRA detector during O3GK
T. Akutsu, M. Ando, K. Arai +246
KAGRA, the underground and cryogenic gravitational-wave detector, was operated for its solo observation from February 25th to March 10th, 2020, and its first joint observation with…
Cryogenic suspension design for a kilometer-scale gravitational-wave detector
Takafumi Ushiba, Tomotada Akutsu, Yoichi Aso +43
We report the mirror suspension design for Large-scale Cryogenic Gravitational wave Telescope, KAGRA, during bKAGRA Phase 1. Mirror thermal noise is one of the fundamental noises f…
Overview of KAGRA : KAGRA science
KAGRA Collaboration, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +240
KAGRA is a newly build gravitational-wave observatory, a laser interferometer with 3 km arm length, located in Kamioka, Gifu, Japan. In this paper in the series of KAGRA-featured a…
An arm length stabilization system for KAGRA and future gravitational-wave detectors
T. Akutsu, M. Ando, K. Arai +198
Modern ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors require a complex interferometer configuration with multiple coupled optical cavities. Since achieving the resonances of the a…
Application of the independent component analysis to the iKAGRA data
KAGRA Collaboration, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +244
We apply the independent component analysis (ICA) to the real data from a gravitational wave detector for the first time. Specifically we use the iKAGRA data taken in April 2016, a…
First cryogenic test operation of underground km-scale gravitational-wave observatory KAGRA
KAGRA Collaboration, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +198
KAGRA is a second-generation interferometric gravitational-wave detector with 3-km arms constructed at Kamioka, Gifu in Japan. It is now in its final installation phase, which we c…
Construction of KAGRA: an Underground Gravitational Wave Observatory
T. Akutsu, M. Ando, S. Araki +222
Major construction and initial-phase operation of a second-generation gravitational-wave detector KAGRA has been completed. The entire 3-km detector is installed underground in a m…
Prospects for Observing and Localizing Gravitational-Wave Transients with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1319
We present our current best estimate of the plausible observing scenarios for the Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA gravitational-wave detectors over the next several years,…
