Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Electron
  • Particle physics
  • Neutrino

His primary areas of investigation include Neutrino, Nuclear physics, Particle physics, Neutrino oscillation and Super-Kamiokande. His Neutrino research includes elements of Massless particle and Lepton. His studies in Nuclear physics integrate themes in fields like Zenith and Detector.

The various areas that Takaaki Kajita examines in his Particle physics study include Scattering and Sigma. His Neutrino oscillation research focuses on subjects like CP violation, which are linked to Proton Synchrotron. The concepts of his Super-Kamiokande study are interwoven with issues in Astrophysics and Muon.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence for oscillation of atmospheric neutrinos (3216 citations)
  • Observation of a neutrino burst from the supernova SN1987A. (1273 citations)
  • Indication of Electron Neutrino Appearance from an Accelerator-produced Off-axis Muon Neutrino Beam (1090 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Takaaki Kajita spends much of his time researching Neutrino, Particle physics, Nuclear physics, Neutrino oscillation and Super-Kamiokande. His work deals with themes such as Astrophysics and Muon, which intersect with Neutrino. His Particle physics research integrates issues from Cherenkov detector and Lepton.

His biological study deals with issues like Detector, which deal with fields such as Gravitational wave. His work in the fields of Neutrino oscillation, such as T2K experiment, Electron neutrino and Sterile neutrino, overlaps with other areas such as Mixing. He has included themes like Annihilation, WIMP, Dark matter, Gamma-ray burst and Event in his Super-Kamiokande study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neutrino (66.01%)
  • Particle physics (55.01%)
  • Nuclear physics (52.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Neutrino (66.01%)
  • Detector (23.23%)
  • Gravitational wave (9.78%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Neutrino, Detector, Gravitational wave, KAGRA and Particle physics. His Neutrino research is within the category of Nuclear physics. Many of his research projects under Detector are closely connected to Upgrade with Upgrade, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

He works mostly in the field of Gravitational wave, limiting it down to topics relating to Neutron star and, in certain cases, Kilonova. His KAGRA study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gravitational-wave observatory, Interferometric gravitational wave detector, Interferometry and Telescope. Takaaki Kajita interconnects Beamline and Order of magnitude in the investigation of issues within Particle physics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Prospects for Observing and Localizing Gravitational-Wave Transients with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA (582 citations)
  • Constraint on the matter–antimatter symmetry-violating phase in neutrino oscillations (153 citations)
  • Hyper-Kamiokande Design Report (140 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Electron
  • Particle physics
  • Photon

Takaaki Kajita mainly investigates Neutrino, Super-Kamiokande, Neutrino oscillation, Detector and Particle physics. His study on Neutrino is covered under Nuclear physics. His Super-Kamiokande research includes elements of Event reconstruction, Electron and Astrophysics.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Electron, Neutrino detector is strongly linked to Cold dark matter. His research investigates the connection between Neutrino oscillation and topics such as Charged current that intersect with issues in Sterile neutrino, Kinematics and Proton. His CP violation and Solar neutrino study are his primary interests in Particle physics.
