A kutatási téma leírása:
"Neutrinos are one of the most mysterious members of the Standard Model, a framework for describing fundamental forces and particles in nature. Neutrinos are known to change its lepton flavor while traveling (e.g., muon-neutrino to electron-neutrino), which the phenomenon is known as Neutrino Oscillation. Current and future front-runner neutrino experiments are eager to precisely study neutrino oscillations using accelerator-generated neutrinos, and one of such experiments is the Tokai-To-Kamioka (T2K) experiment in Japan.
T2K is the World’s leading accelerator-based neutrino experiment. Its main physics goal is to search for the evidence of “Charge-Paritiy” symmetry violation (CP violation) through neutrino oscillation. An intense beam of muon (anti)neutrinos is generated at the east coast of Japan and directed across the country to the gigantic neutrino detector (the Super-Kamiokande water Cherenkov detector, SK) in the mountains of western Japan. Student who conducts this research topic will search for the evidence of the leptonic CP violation using high-statistic T2K data. Student will have opportunities to travel to Japan for T2K detector operation and will summarize her/his study as a Ph.D dissertation which will bring a new insight in the field of experimental neutrino physics."
előírt nyelvtudás: angol további elvárások: Experience of computer programming (preferably C++), basic knowledge of particle physics. Student will join the experimental neutrino physics group at ELTE and travel regularly to the T2K experiment at J-PARC in Tokai, Japan.
