![]() Having first recieved “in-principle” approval from the Indian government in 2016, India has already started some pre-construction work, including designing the LIGO-India buildings, laying roads to the site and fabricating and testing vacuum chambers. IUCAA will lead in gravitational-wave science and data computation, while RRCAT will assemble the laser and mirror, and the IPR will install the high-vacuum system. ![]() India, meanwhile, will build the vacuum system and other infrastructure to house and operate the interferometer. These are the Raja Ramanna Center for Advanced Technology (RRCAT), Indore the Institute for Plasma Research (IPR), Ahmedabad the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune and the construction arm of the Department of Atomic Energy in Mumbai.Īs well as providing the interferometer’s hardware and design data, Caltech and MIT will help to install the new facility. LIGO-India will be built by a collaboration between the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and four Indian institutes.
