Talk A High Energy Particle Physics: A Particle Physics

Speaker

Sandro Bravar (Universite de Geneve (CH))

Description

Hyper-Kamiokande (HK) is a next generation large underground water Cherenkov detector,
based on the highly successful Super-Kamiokande experiment. HK is the logical continuation
of the highly successful program of neutrino physics and proton decay searches using
a water Cherenkov technique, with an order of magnitude larger mass than predecessor
experiments. HK will offer a broad science program such as neutrino oscillation studies,
proton decay searches, and neutrino astrophysics with unprecedented sensitivities.
In this talk I'll present the current status of the HK project and discuss the physics
potential of HK.
