We experimentally research on unstable nuclei (RI) structures using an electron and a heavy-ion storage ring. Research on the charge density distribution by electron elastic scattering using electron storage rings and unstable nuclear targets, the mass measurement of rare RI using heavy-ion storage rings, and development of beam recycling aiming at making RI-RI collision possible.

We are developing cutting-edge high-intensity laser sources and studying experimental research on the laser interaction with matter by using the new laser sources. We are promoting cross-disciplinary research based on high-intensity laser technologies such as development of high-intensity mid-infrared solid-state lasers and fiber lasers, research on particle acceleration and wavelength conversion with plasmas produced by high-intensity ultrafast lasers, development of laser isotope separation method for neutrino research, and search for dark matter using high-intensity lasers.

Prof MORIMOTO, Yuya (Ph D)

We develop cutting-edge electron microscopy methods to elucidate the microscopic arrangements, properties, and functions of materials. By developing electron microscopes with extreme time resolution, we aim to capture atomic-level movies of chemical reactions. Furthermore, using transmission electron microscopy with high energy resolution, we aim to visualize elemental distributions and electronic states in micro-regions within materials.

This laboratory studies the structural biology about the relationships between protein structures and their functions and properties based on the crystal structures determined by X-ray analyses. The main research themes are elucidation of the enzymatic reaction mechanism and the adaptation strategy of proteins from thermophilic or cold-adapted bacteria.
