DECIGO and DECIGO pathfinder
A space gravitational wave antenna, DECIGO (DECI hertz interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory) will provide fruitful insights into the universe, particularly on the formation mechanism of supermassive black holes, dark energy and the inflation of the universe. In the current pre conceptual design, DECIGO will be comprising four interferometer units; each interferometer unit will be formed by three drag free spacecraft with 1000 km separation. Since DECIGO will be an extremely challenging mission with high precision formation flight with long baseline, it is important to increase the technical feasibility before its planned launch in 2027. Thus, we are planning to launch two milestone missions. DECIGO pathfinder (DPF) is the first milestone mission, and key components for DPF are being tested on ground and in orbit. In this paper, we review the conceptual design and current status of DECIGO and DPF.
