Welcome to Neutrino Research at KEK
Neutrino Group, Institute of Particle and Nuclear Studies (IPNS), High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) hosts the the accelerator based long baseline neutrino experiment which provides knowledge on the neutrino mass and mixing. Currently, the T2K experiment, whose primary aim is to discover muon neutrino to electron neutrino conversion phenomenon, is being conducted. The T2K experiment has announced the discovery of above neutrino conversion phenomenon in 2013. From 2014, the T2K experiment is investigating the difference between neutrino and anti-neutrino by measuring the neutrino oscillation phenomena precisely. Our mission is producing the high intensity neutrino/anti-neutrino beam that enables to investigate the properties of the neutrino precisely.
