Research Description

The discovery of the Higgs boson completed the Standard Model of particle physics, but many mysteries remain. To uncover the keys to these mysteries, we participate in the ATLAS experiment at CERN, utilizing the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's highest-energy proton-proton collider. ATLAS is one of the largest international experiments, where we contribute to the development and operation of the trigger system, which selects collision events for data taking. Through the study of scattering events, we aim to discover new physics beyond the Standard Model.

We are also actively engaged in integrating cutting-edge technologies into particle physics experiments.
This field requires expertise not only in fundamental physics but also in advanced electronics and computing.
The technologies and methodologies are closely connected across various particle physics experiments, such as the ZEUS electron-proton collider experiment at DESY in Germany, and the Double Chooz reactor neutrino oscillation experiment in France.
