Abstract
KAGRA gravitational wave telescope in Japan started the 4th international gravitational wave observation(O4) with Advanced-LIGO and Advanced Virgo in May 2023, after repairs, upgrades, and commissioning for 3 years from May 2020. Under the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA O4 scenario, KAGRA restarted its commissioning from July 2023 to upgrade and improve its sensitivity and to rejoin O4 around Spring 2024. We will present the processes of the improvements and commissioning in KAGRA for O4 and the one-month observation status of KAGRA from 24th May to 21st July 2023.
