Neutrinos are elementary particles often referred to as 'ghost particles' due to their extremely weak interaction with matter, which makes them exceptionally difficult to detect. Our laboratory investigates neutrinos and dark matter at relatively low energy levels to understand the fundamental components of the cosmos.
Research Areas
Neutrino Physics: Neutrino mass and oscillations, underground experiments, and detector technology development.
Dark Matter Detection: Searching for rare events in low-background environments.
Detector Simulation & Analysis: Geant4-based detector simulation, event reconstruction, and statistical data analysis.
Collaborative Experiments: Domestic and international joint research and global data-sharing initiatives (e.g., Super-Kamiokande, Hyper-Kamiokande).
