Inaugural Symposium of the Hyper-Kamiokande Proto-Collaboration

Information

The Hyper-Kamiokande project aims to address the mysteries of the origin and evolution of the Universe’s matter as well as to confront theories of elementary particle unification. To realize these goals it will combine a high intensity neutrino beam from J-PARC with a new detector based upon precision neutrino experimental techniques developed in Japan and built to be more than 10 times larger than Super-Kamiokande. On this occasion, a research proto-collaboration will be formed to advance the Hyper-Kamiokande project internationally and a symposium commemorating the event will be held.

Members of the press are cordially invited to cover this event and are further welcome to participate in the symposium.
