7. iKAGRA Test Run in 2016 Period - March 25 to 31 - April 11 to 25
Purpose - confirm layout of the 3 km vacuum ducts - test controls, data transfer, observation shift, etc. - get environmental data - obtain experiences of the management and operation of the km-class interferometer

8. iKAGRA Sensitivity ~3e-15 /rtHz @ 100 Hz
Limited by seismic noise, acoustic noise and ADC noise
Reduction possible in bKAGRA

9. Data Transfer
Real time transfer to ICRR Kashiwa and Osaka City Univ. (~3 sec latency, ~ 200 MB/sec)
Delayed mirroring at Academia Sinica, Taiwan and KISTI, Daejeon
7.5 TB in total
