Hiroyuki Fujioka, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Fujioka Lab studies nuclear physics, in the broad sense, through experiments. The lab is distinctive in using atomic nuclei not as the object of study in themselves, but as a means of investigating the properties and interactions of hadrons, which are particles made up of quarks. Since its founding, the lab has kept taking on new challenges under the keyword 'Let's do front-line research.' Students who plan to find a job after finishing the master's program are also welcome.
Takashi Nakamura, Professor
0 student voices
Nakamura Lab studies new quantum phenomena of atomic nuclei using short-lived nuclei that do not exist in nature (unstable nuclei). In particular, it uses reactions of neutron-rich nuclei, which have a very large number of neutrons, to explore the mysteries of matter and the evolution of the universe. Experiments are carried out jointly with research groups in Japan and abroad, mainly at the RI Beam Factory at RIKEN in Wako, Saitama Prefecture. The lab is in charge of developing the neutron detector NEBULA, which is used with the SAMURAI experimental apparatus at this facility.
Katsushi Ito, Professor
0 student voices
The Elementary Particle Theory Lab takes a theoretical approach to its research, with the exploration of a unified theory of elementary particles as its theme. Key topics include superstring theory, quantum field theory, and supersymmetry. The lab holds seminars that invite researchers from inside and outside the university.
Mikio Kozuma, Professor
0 student voices
The Kozuma Lab studies both fundamental physics and applications, using atoms that are cooled and manipulated with lasers. In its curiosity-driven research, the lab investigates how a gas of atoms that behave as magnets behaves in the quantum world. In its research responding to societal needs, the lab is developing, jointly with companies, a device that uses the wave nature of atoms to determine position even where GPS is unavailable. Members carry everything forward themselves, from building lasers and designing circuits to operating the apparatus.
Masahiro Kuze, Professor
0 student voices
The Kuze Lab experimentally studies the structure and properties of elementary particles, the smallest units that make up nature. The lab takes part in the ATLAS experiment at the LHC accelerator at CERN in Switzerland, aiming to discover new particles. The other pillar is neutrinos, and the lab participates in experiments such as Super-Kamiokande and T2K. The lab accepts master's and doctoral students not only from within the university but also from other universities.
Michio Matsushita, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Matsushita Lab develops microscopes that observe biomolecules one molecule at a time, and studies the mechanisms of life from a physics perspective. The lab has developed its own correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) method, taking on the challenge of simultaneously observing the fine structures of membrane proteins and biological membranes. Its motto is to build everything it needs by itself, from hardware to software. The lab advances its research in collaboration with researchers who specialize in life sciences.
Yusuke Nishida, Professor
0 student voices
Nishida Lab studies theoretical physics, with cold atoms as its main subject. The field of cold atoms traps atoms with lasers and cools them to extremely low temperatures on the order of nanokelvin, in order to study the quantum physics that emerges there. Taking advantage of the ability to freely tune the interaction strength and the spatial dimension, the lab aims to understand universal physical phenomena that appear across different fields. The lab's research also extends to condensed matter physics and to particle and nuclear physics.
Masashi Kitajima, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Kitajima Lab studies quantum phenomena that occur when photons or electrons collide with atoms and molecules. A chemical reaction is a process in which molecules collide, their bonds rearrange, and new molecules form. To understand this, the lab investigates the motions of atoms and molecules caused by collisions, as well as pairs of quantum-entangled atoms produced in chemical reactions.
Akihide Hibara, Professor
0 student voices
The Hibara-Fukuhara Lab is an analytical chemistry lab made up of the Hibara Group and the Fukuhara Group. The Hibara Group explores analysis that uses extremely small structures and devices, as well as the principles of analysis based on physical chemistry and interfacial chemistry. The lab values original perspectives and develops its own instruments and methods. The Fukuhara Group works on analytical methods that use supramolecular mechanisms to amplify signals and measure target substances.
Yasuhiro Ohshima, Professor
0 student voices
The Ohshima-Yamazaki Lab uses laser light to study how to capture and control molecular motion. Unlike molecular formulas written on paper, real molecules fly around in space, rotate, and vibrate. The lab aims to capture such molecular motion vividly and to control it at will. It also works to make the motions of electrons and atoms inside molecules visible, in order to explore the origin and driving forces of chemical reactions.
