Updates on the ZAIGA project
Mid-frequency gravitational waves (0.1-10 Hz): sources and detection methods
ZAIGA (the Zhaoshan long-baseline Atom Interferometer Gravitation Antenna) is a proposed underground long-baseline atom interferometer (AI) facility, aiming for experimental research on gravitation and related problems. It includes gravitational wave detection (ZAIGA-GW), dark matter detection (ZAIGA-DM), high-precision test of the equivalence principle of micro-particles (ZAIGA-EP), clock-based gravitational red-shift measurement (ZAIGA-CE-R), rotation measurement and gravitomagnetic effect (ZAIGA-RM and ZAIGA-GG). In this talk, we will report the current status of the ZAIGA project, including the brief overview, the environment and infrastructure design, and the development on key unit technologies.
