The purposes of this KEK theory center project on "High-energy and high-density material sciences by J-PARC" are

• Creation of new resarch fields and projects on high-energy and high-density material sciences associated with J-PARC,
• Promotion of J-PARC projects, especially on hadron physics, by close collaborations among theorists and experimentalists,
• Discussions on experimental results,
• New experimental proposals for J-PARC,
• Promotion of exchanges among researchers on J-PARC projects in Japan,
• Internationalization of J-PARC projects.

We try to realize these aims by organizeing workshops, collaboration meetings, and seminars among not only theorists
but also experimentalists. The activities are listed in the left [MENU].
