Experimental Particle Physics

Research Subject

Experimental Research of Elementary Particle Physics using High Energy Accelerators

Current Research

Search for physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics with neutrinos, flavor physics, and quest for grand unified theories. Study of properties of neutrinos using artificial neutrino beams produced with high energy accelerators. Search for muon neutrino to electron neutrino transition with Super-Kamiokande and T2K experiments. Construction of Hyper-Kamiokande (next generation water Cherenkov detector with 10 times more volume than Super-Kamiokande), aiming for the study of particle-antiparticle asymmetry in neutrinos and search for proton decay. Development of experimental instruments and techniques for innovative research.
