Japan Hadron Facility (JHF)

Physics; Particle physics

An accelerator currently under construction for nuclear physics experiments that will produce a very intense 50 GeV proton beam. It can also be made to generate an intense beam of neutrinos. A ...

Japanese Linear Collider (JLC)

Physics; Particle physics

A development effort for a next-generation linear collilder based at KEK.

K2K

Physics; Particle physics

This experiment aims a neutrino beam from the KEK accelerator to the SuperKamiokande detector. It is searching for neutrino oscillations.

KamLAND

Physics; Particle physics

An experiment based at the Kamioka mine in Japan that is designed to look at anti-neutrinos produced by nearby nuclear power plants.

K-Meson

Physics; Particle physics

This is the name for a meson that contains the exotic strange (s) quark and either an up or down quark. These particles are also known as Kaons.

KEK

Physics; Particle physics

A high energy physics laboratory located in near Tokyo, Japan. It houses the BELLE experiment, as well as the accelerator used in the K2K experiment.

K0PI0

Physics; Particle physics

An experiment that searches for a rare decay of uncharged K-mesons into neutral pions. This decay provides valuable information about the CKM Mixing Matrix and CP violation.
