Overview
On October 1st, 2017 the University of Tokyo launched its “Next-generation Neutrino Science Organization (NNSO),” in cooperation with the Institute for Cosmic Ray Research, the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe, and the University of Tokyo’s School of Science. The NNSO is a means of pioneering the future of neutrino physics through the development of neutrino research techniques and detector technologies. In particular, it aims to advance what will become its flagship facility, the Hyper-Kamiokande project.
Since 2019, the Earthquake Research Institute has participated in this organization.
