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…
Low background measurement in CANDLES-III for studying the neutrino-less double beta decay of Ca
S. Ajimura, W. M. Chan, K. Ichimura +65
We developed a CANDLES-III system to study the neutrino-less double beta (0) decay of Ca. The proposed system employs 96 CaF scintillation crystals (305 kg) with…
The energy calibration system for CANDLES using (n, γ) reaction
T. Iida, K. Mizukoshi, T. Ohata +28
CAlcium fluoride for the study of Neutrinos and Dark matters by Low-energy Spectrometer (CANDLES) searches for neutrino-less double beta decay of Ca using a CaF scintill…
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…
Design and experimental demonstration of a laser modulation system for future gravitational-wave detectors
Kohei Yamamoto, Keiko Kokeyama, Yuta Michimura +12
Detuning the signal-recycling cavity length from a cavity resonance significantly improves the quantum noise beyond the standard quantum limit, while there is no km-scale gravitati…
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…
Vibration isolation system with a compact damping system for power recycling mirrors of KAGRA
Y. Akiyama, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +169
A vibration isolation system called Type-Bp system used for power recycling mirrors has been developed for KAGRA, the interferometric gravitational-wave observatory in Japan. A sus…
KAGRA: 2.5 Generation Interferometric Gravitational Wave Detector
T. Akutsu, M. Ando, K. Arai +188
The recent detections of gravitational waves (GWs) reported by LIGO/Virgo collaborations have made significant impact on physics and astronomy. A global network of GW detectors wil…
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…
