The Hyper-Kamiokande Neutrino Experiment is a major international research project to study the properties of neutrinos, the most abundant particles in the universe. The experiment is based at the Kamioka Observatory in Japan and will use the world's largest neutrino detector
Hyper-Kamiokande is a neutrino observatory and experiment under construction in Hida, Gifu Prefecture and in Tokai, Ibaraki Prefecture in Japan. It is conducted by the University of Tokyo and the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK), in collaboration with institutes from over 20 countries across six continents. As a successor of the Super-Kamiokande and T2K experiments, it is designed to search for proton decay and detect neutrinos from natural sources such as the Earth, the atmosphere, the Sun and the cosmos, as well as to study neutrino oscillations of the man-made accelerator neutrino beam. The beginning of data-taking is planned for 2028.
