Biography

Teppei Katori is an experimental particle physicist mainly working on neutrino experiments including the T2K (Tokai-to-Kamioka) at J-PARC, Super-Kamiokande (Super-K), and Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) experiments all in Japan, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory and IceCube-Gen2 in Antarctica. Through these experiments, Katori studies both the fundamental properties of neutrinos and the research on spacetime and nuclear structure using neutrinos as probes. In the past, Katori worked on the MicroBooNE, MiniBooNE, SciBooNE, and FINeSSE experiments, all at Fermilab, USA.

Katori is also interested in neutrino phenomenology. He is interested in the search for new spacetime structure including violation of Lorentz invariance using neutrinos. He is also a member of the NuSTEC (Neutrino Scattering Theory-Experiment Collaboration) to study neutrino interaction physics. Finally, his interest on neutrino interaction physics leads him to study hadron and nuclear physics, including neutron experiments at the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source, RAL, and n_TOF facility at CERN.

Katori received his bachelor of science degree from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan, and his PhD from Indiana University, Bloomington, USA. Katori is the chair of the Institute of Physics Astroparticle Physics group
