Tom Browder (University of Hawaii)

My research program is the BELLE experiment at KEK in Tsukuba, JAPAN.
This experiment studies CP Symmetry Violation in the B Meson System
and Searches for Physics Beyond the Standard Model.
I am also teaching undergraduate physics courses and supervising graduate students.
