Current Research

We participate in the ATLAS experiment and carry out research through international collaboration and in the midst of international competition with the aim of discovering signs of new physics in experimental data. By carefully reviewing experimental data, we are testing hypotheses regarding new phenomena that contradict the Standard Model of particle physics, but are predicted by new physics models, such as unknown resonance states or the pair production of new particles with colour charges. We test these hypotheses from a variety of perspectives, seeking possible hints of new physics in massive amounts of experimental data. In addition to data analysis, we also conduct wide-ranging research activities, such as operating and making improvements to the detector and hardware trigger of the ATLAS experiment and developing high-speed trigger electronics with cutting-edge technologies. One of the most important objectives of our group is to maximize the potential for new physics discoveries at the LHC through my work both with hardware and software. Research is constantly advancing. Let us take on the new challenges that arise each day, such as combining our knowledge to create new ideas and solve problems within the time constraints due to experiment and machine operations. Let us enjoy making rapid progress through small yet steady steps at CERN.
