The lab searches for new elementary particles at the LHC, the world's highest-energy particle accelerator.
AboutAbout the lab
Recreating the early universe in the laboratory.
The Ishino Lab conducts experimental research in particle physics using the LHC, the world's highest-energy proton-proton collider.
The lab takes part in the ATLAS experiment at CERN in Switzerland, artificially recreating conditions of the early universe inside the accelerator.
By discovering new particles there and closely examining their properties, the lab aims to probe the physics underlying the Standard Model of particle physics.
The lab also pursues applied research on electronics that process detector signals at high speed.
Key terms
- LHC
- The world's largest accelerator, located at CERN in Switzerland, which collides protons with each other at nearly the speed of light
- Standard Model
- The theory that describes elementary particles and the behavior of the forces acting between them, forming the foundation of current particle physics
- Trigger
- A mechanism that selects, on the spot, the events worth recording and studying from the continuous stream of collisions

ResearchResearch themes
The lab discovers new particles at the LHC, the world's highest-energy accelerator, and studies their properties in detail. Using the experimental facts obtained there as clues, it probes the physics underlying the Standard Model of particle physics, such as the structure of the vacuum and spacetime and symmetries that are not yet known.

The lab discovers new particles at the LHC, the world's highest-energy proton-proton collider, and closely examines their properties. By taking part in the ATLAS experiment at CERN in Switzerland, it recreates the early universe in the laboratory and observes and measures it in detail.
*Illustrative imageDeveloping Detectors and Triggers
To maximize the chance of discovering new particles, the lab develops experimental technologies such as triggers, particle detectors, and software, and applies them to actual data collection. The work involves muon detectors and muon trigger circuits.
