The Higgs physics lab of a research center that pursues physics focused on flavor.

AboutAbout the lab
Searching for new physics with a focus on flavor.
The Higgs Physics Lab is one of the divisions that make up the International Center for Flavor Physics (FlaP) at the Kobayashi-Maskawa Institute for the Origin of Particles and the Universe, Nagoya University.
FlaP was established in April 2023 to advance international research and education in physics focused on particle flavor, with the aim of discovering new physics beyond the Standard Model.
As a hub for promoting international collaborative research at Nagoya University, FlaP states that it will lead the development of cutting-edge measurement instruments and data analysis that incorporates data science.
Key terms
- Standard Model
- The current foundational theory that explains elementary particles and the forces acting between them. FlaP aims for new physics beyond it
- Flavor
- The property that distinguishes the types of quarks and leptons. FlaP pursues physics focused on it
- Higgs boson
- A type of elementary particle. FlaP studies it together with the top quark at the High-Luminosity LHC/ATLAS experiment
ResearchResearch themes
The International Center for Flavor Physics (FlaP) advances international research and education in physics focused on particle flavor, with the aim of discovering new physics beyond the Standard Model. The Phenomenon Analysis Division and the Fundamental Theory Division work together to study elementary particles more comprehensively and from multiple perspectives.
