The laboratory will be open to the public at the 67th Meidai Festival on the following dates.
The theme is "Exploring the world of elementary particles with cutting-edge particle accelerators”.
Laboratory staff and students will provide easy-to-understand explanations of major discoveries in particle physics, such as the experimental confirmation of the Kobayashi-Maskawa theory at the KEKB accelerator/Belle experiment, and the discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC accelerator/ATLAS experiment — both of which led to Nobel Prizes.
In addition to the permanent exhibition, we will offer a 30 minute research introduction and laboratory equipment demonstration tour. The tours are scheduled for (1) 10:30–11:00 and (2) 15:30–16:00. Advance registration is required. If you would like to participate, please register here. Both tours will cover the same content. Please note that the guided tours will be conducted in Japanese only.
Date and time: Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm
Location: Room 507, 5th Floor, Building C, Faculty of Science, Nagoya University, Higashiyama Campus (Access)
No advance registration is required to visit the permanent exhibition. We invite you to take this opportunity to explore the fascinating world of cutting-edge particle physics experiments.
