We study the grand unified theory (GUT) and the generation structure
of elementary particles, using neutrinos as a probe. We primarily
focus on the possibility that the suppression of "dimension-5 proton
decays" (proton decays via colored Higgsino exchange, which are too
fast if supersymmetric particles are at TeV scale) in supersymmetric
SO(10) GUT is realized with a unique flavor...

Grand unification is one of the most attractive ideas for constructing unified theories beyond the standard model (SM). As is well-known in SO(10) and E(6) GUTs, the SM quarks and leptons are embedded into one unified multiple. So, a part of baryon (B) and lepton (L) numbers, i.e., B-L, is a part of the GUT gauge group. The B and L symmetries play a crucial role of understanding low-energy...

The water Cherenkov detectors, such as Kamiokande and Super-Kamiokande, have led the study of neutrinos so far, as seen in the observation of supernova neutrinos and discovery of neutrino oscillations. In the next-generation neutrino experiment, a large-scale scintillator experiment of the same size as Super-Kamiokande is necessary. Because organic scintillators are toxic and flammable, we are...

CALETは国際宇宙ステーションにおける高エネルギー宇宙線の直接観測実験であり、2015年10月から現在まで順調に観測を継続している。検出器はTeV領域の電子観測に最適化した30放射長の物質量をもつ解像型のカロリメータで、宇宙線近傍加速源や暗黒物質の探索を主目的としている。さらに、陽子・原子核成分の高精度なエネルギースペクトルの観測を通じて、宇宙線の加速・伝播機構の解明を目指している。本講演では、これまでの約5年間の観測で得られた観測結果、特に宇宙線原子核成分の観測結果について報告する。

GasPMは大規模素粒子実験の発展を加速させるために発明された安価かつ大型なガス増倍を用いた高時間分解能光検出器である。この検出器は現在開発の初期段階で、我々は試作機を用いて高時間分解能であることを実証することを目指しており、そのために基本動作を理解する必要がある。
検出器の時間分解能は信号のS/N比で決まるため、信号の増倍率を最大化する必要がある。私は、検出器の増倍率の印加電圧依存性、光子検出レート依存性を測定した。
印加電圧については3kVの時に増倍率が最大となり、それ以上の印加電圧では増倍率が低下することを明らかとした。光子検出レートは1Hzの時に増倍率が最大となり、それ以上の検出レートとすると検出器内部に増幅された電子が蓄積され、電場が低下することで増倍率が低下することが明らかとなった。これは試作器特有の性質であり、この影響が小さい1Hz程度のヒットレートで評価をすること...

ZICOS is one of future project of Neutrinoless double beta decay search using a liquid scintillator containing $^{96}$Zr. In order to achieve the sensitivity over $10^{27}$ years, ZICOS will use tons of $^{96}$Zr, and need to remove $^{208}$Tl backgrounds efficiently. For this purpose, we have developed new technique to distinguish signal and background using a topological information of...

From a theoretical point of view, there is a strong motivation to consider an MeV-scale reheating temperature induced by long-lived massive particles with masses around the weak scale, decaying only through gravitational interaction. In this study, we investigate lower limits on the reheating temperature imposed by big-bang nucleosynthesis assuming both radiative and hadronic decays of such...

It is now widely recognized that the value of the Hubble-Lemaitre constant measured by cosmic microwave background (CMB) is in strong tension with the one obtained from local direct measurements, which is called the $H_0$ tension. Since CMB is now the most powerful cosmological probe of neutrino masses and $H_0$ is correlated with neutrino masses in CMB, one can expect that the $H_0$ tension...

We explore a novel possibility that dark matter has a light mass below 1GeV in a lepton portal dark matter model. There are Yukawa couplings involving dark matter, left-handed leptons and an extra scalar doublet in the model. In the light mass region, dark matter is thermally produced via its annihilation into neutrinos. In order to obtain the correct relic abundance and avoid collider bounds,...
