    Photo-detector and Support
    New large aperture photodetectors for Hyper-Kamiokande are under development and these usability is tested. For the first proof test, high-QE photomultiplier tubes (51 cm Φ) and hybrid photodetectors (20 cm Φ) have been measured in a 200-ton water tank in Kamioka, Japan. These installation, calibration and performance evaluation, and development status of other new photodetectors will be presented.

    Photo-detector and Support
    We investigate the performance of photon traps for enhancing the light collection efficiency within the Hyper-Kamokiokande detector. Cerenkov photons enter the trap by going through a dichroic mirror transmitting UV and blue light and reflecting green light. Some Cerenkov photons are detected directly by a PMT while the others are absorbed in a wavelength shifting plate that reemit green...
