Description
Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) is a next-generation, water Cherenkov detector that is proposed to be built in Japan. Hyper-K will consist of two tanks, each with a fiducial volume of 187 kilotons. Hyper-K will address some of the most important questions in the field, including the measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters, as well as probing CP-violation, neutrino mass hierarchy, neutrino astrophysics, and nucleon decay searches. This talk will describe the current status of Hyper-K, including the proposal to place one of the two Hyper-K tanks in Korea, as well as the plan for the accelerator neutrino physics program.
