“… As late as 2001, the two particle detectors BaBar at Stanford, USA and Belle at Tsukuba, Japan, both detected broken symmetries independently of each other. The results were exactly as Kobayashi and Maskawa had predicted almost three decades earlier.” 9

Summary The Institute of High Energy Physics (HEPHY) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences has a long-standing scientific cooperation with Japan in the field of particle physics HEPHY was deeply involved in the Belle experiment (data taking: 1999-2010) and contributed to both to the detector hardware and to the experiments scientific results We are now also heavily involved in the Belle II upgrade, assuming the overall responsibility for the Silicon Vertex Detector Looking forward to the first Belle II data in 2017! 20
