Research activities

Here we will tell you daily research activities of experimental groups in Institute of Particle and Nuclear Studies.

Seminars and workshops

In “KEK physics seminars” (Tuesday 16:00--17:00), which are regular activities of our institute, we invite physicists in foreign or dometics countries as lecturers and discuss the latest results and topics that are taken interested in by both experimental and theoretical viewpoints. Sometimes special seminars by internationally eminent researchers are held. All the seminars are given in English, even if the lecturer is Japanese.

We also have “KEK theory seminars” specifically for theorists.

In KEK, as an inter-university research institute corporation, various international conferences, workshops, research meetings and seminars are held.

For meetings and seminars held this week, see “Homepage of KEK for researchers”.
For the list of all the future meetings and seminars, see here.

Daily research activities, informal seminars and so on

Research groups are units for the research activities, such as group meetings, regular meetings of measurement and data analysis, TV meetings with groups in domestic and foreign universities, reading circles, journal clubs, informal seminars. Graduate students also participate in them as researchers.

For voluntary seminars and lectures in our institute, see, for example,
high energy physics and our picture of the universe
lecture on the Standard Model and Beyond
Academic Lectures on B Physics

In “Quantum Diaries”, real research lives of young researchers around the world are described.

In KEK, as well as the official staffs, postdocs or young researchers who have just earned Ph.D., and SOKENDAI graduate students, the following graduate students are involved with the experiments:

  • Students from universities staying for cooperative experiments
  • Students from universities accepted as interns
  • Students from interdisciplinary science course, Department of Physics, Graduate School of Science, the University of Tokyo

KEK people discuss with them and give guidance everyday.

For details of the research activities, inquire of each group.
