Institute of Particle and Nuclear Studies

Elementary particles of the standard model

 

We have studied elementary particles, nucleus, and their interactions. All the matter in the Universe including us consists of elementary particles. Exploring the elementary particles with high energy beams enables us to describe phenomena of the submicroscopic world and to reveal mysteries of the creation of the universe.

 

In the Institutes of Particle and Nuclear Studies, we have investigated a wide range of research field on the particle and nuclear physics both with the experimental and theoretical approaches. Our activity further includes development of new experimental devices, methods, application studies, and related physics research using a variety of particle beams (e.g., the colliding-beam accelerator and the high intensity proton accelerator).
