Abstract
The Hyper-Kamiokande neutrino detector is set to begin construction in 2020, succeeding Super-Kamiokande as the world's largest water Cerenkov detector. Research and development are well underway for an integrated light injection system for Hyper-Kamiokande which will provide in-situ monitoring of photo-sensor responses and water transparency. In summer 2018, optical hardware forming an iteration of this system was installed in Super-Kamiokande. We present details of the narrow-beam diffuser hardware and testing procedures, in addition to a brief summary of the installed light injection system.
