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…
Multi Order Coverage data structure to plan multi-messenger observations
Giuseppe Greco, Michele Punturo, Mark Allen +9
We describe the use of Multi Order Coverage (MOC) maps as a practical way to manage complex regions of the sky for the planning of multi-messenger observations. MOC maps are a data…
All-sky search in early O3 LIGO data for continuous gravitational-wave signals from unknown neutron stars in binary systems
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1369
Rapidly spinning neutron stars are promising sources of persistent, continuous gravitational waves. Detecting such a signal would allow probing of the physical properties of matter…
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…
