Achievements of CLIO cryogenicsCryocooler system with sub-m vibration

2nd V.R.Stage -> Heat LinkAmplitude ≃ 50 nm

Cold head -> Cryostat ≈ Seismic background

Achievements of CLIO cryogenicsVibration at 300K stage

• Red– PT Cryocooler:ON– Vacuum Pump :ON

• Blue– PT Cryocooler :OFF– Vaccuum Pump :OFF

• Cryocooler operation does not degrade seismic background at 300K stage.

Achievements of CLIO cryogenics

• Technology of cryocooler system with small vibration has been established.

• Cryocooler system can operate without affecting seismic background.

• Design of heat balance on cryogenic system was confirmed.

Estimation of heat flow

Page 11: Cryogenics for LCGT

Heat transfer in cryogenic GW detector

• Ultra-high vacuum– Conduction through solid

• Compatibility with vibration isolation– Large conductance for heat flow– Small conduction for mechanical vibration

• Small mechanical loss for mirror support

Mirror Support : large , small mechanical loss, large strengthFrom SPI to Cryocooler : large , small Young’s modulus From SAS to Platform : small , large strength

Material selection:Sapphire

• Sapphire is the only candidate for mirror support• Size effect for thin rod

Material selection:Pure Al

• Material for heat links• Avoid size effect for our purpose• Inside cryostat -> single-wire• Cryostat-cryocooler -> multi-wire

Material selection:amorphous metal

• SAS-Suspension platform

• Temperature gradient (300K-14K)

• Experience in the cryogenic resonant detector (60Hz)

Why cryocooler

• Intermittent charge• Variation of temperature

distribution• Transportation of liquid• Handling of evaporated

gas• Potential danger in deep

tunnel• Boiling noise• Liquefaction facilities

• Stationary operation• Stable distribution of

temperature• Electricity and cooling

water• Maintenance• Mechanical vibration• Cooling power

LCGT cryocooler

1 W @ 4.2 K100 W @ 80 K

◎ Compressor with larger capacity U=pV○ Increasing nubmers of cryocoolers with current model

☆ Cryocooler with [email protected] already exist but not suitable for VRS type system.

Target will be attainable within the extension of current technology.

Summary of LCGT cryogenics• Fundamental technology of cooling syst

em has been established.• The PT cryocooler system of CLIO with

low-level vibration have already satisfied the requirements of LCGT

• The way of increasing cooling power is attainable from current technology.

• Properties of key materials are known.• Scale up from CLIO to LCGT is availabl
