The lab theoretically explores new laws of physics beyond the Standard Model.

AboutAbout the lab
Uncovering new laws of physics through theory
The Particle Theory Lab belongs to the Fundamental Theory Division of the Kobayashi-Maskawa Institute for the Origin of Particles and the Universe at Nagoya University, and aims to elucidate new laws of physics theoretically.
It integrates results from simulations on the dedicated high-performance computers of the Theoretical Computational Physics Office, particle physics experiments, and research on the universe and cosmic rays.
Based on these, the lab works to elucidate Standard Model dynamics and builds theories beyond the Standard Model.
Within the Fundamental Theory Division, the lab also conducts research in cooperation with the Cosmology Lab, the String Theory and Mathematical Structure Lab, and the Theoretical Computational Physics Office.
Key terms
- Standard Model
- The theory that explains elementary particles and the forces acting between them, and forms the foundation of current particle physics
- Dynamics
- The mechanism of motion: how matter and forces change over time and how they behave
- Cosmic rays
- High-energy particles that rain down on the Earth from space
ResearchResearch themes
The Particle Theory Lab aims to elucidate new laws of physics theoretically. Its goal is to clarify Standard Model dynamics and to build theories beyond the Standard Model.
