Long term measurements from the M\'atra Gravitational and Geophysical Laboratory

Summary of the long term data taking, related to one of the proposed next generation ground-based gravitational detector's location is presented here. Results of seismic and infrasound noise, electromagnetic attenuation and cosmic muon radiation measurements are reported in the underground Matra Gravitational and Geophysical Laboratory near Gy\"ongy\"osoroszi, Hungary. The collected seismic data of more than two years is evaluated from the point of view of the Einstein Telescope, a proposed third generation underground gravitational wave observatory. Applying our results for the site selection will significantly improve the signal to nose ratio of the multi-messenger astrophysics era, especially at the low frequency regime.

First report of long term measurements of the {MGGL} laboratory in the {M}\'atra mountain range

Matra Gravitational and Geophysical Laboratory (MGGL) has been established near Gy\"ongy\"osoroszi, Hungary in 2015, in the cavern system of an unused ore mine. The Laboratory is located at 88~m below the surface, with the aim to measure and analyse the advantages of the underground installation of third generation gravitational wave detectors. Specialized instruments have been installed to measure seismic, infrasound, electromagnetic noise, and the variation of the cosmic muon flux. In the preliminary (RUN-0) test period, March-August 2016, data collection has been accomplished. In this paper we describe the research potential of the MGGL, list the installed equipments and summarize the experimental results of RUN-0. Here we report RUN-0 data, that prepares systematic and synchronized data collection of the next run period.
