Experimental High Energy Physics
Research Interests
He is interested in understanding the asymmetry of matter in the universe, how matter is made and doing precision tests of the Standard Model (SM) in order to search for the new physics. Currently, he is involved in the Belle and Belle II experiment situated at KEK (Tsukuba, Japan). He is also interested in applying EHEP techniques for societal benefits.
