The Nishina Center for Accelerator-Based Science is a world-leading accelerator facility, home to the most powerful cyclotron in the world. Using its accelerators researchers study the structure and properties of different types of unstable nuclei in an attempt to uncover the mystery of the origin of matter and for applications in the life and medical sciences. The center is unique in that it fosters close collaborations between theoretical and experimental scientists, not only in Japan at the Wako campus but also at RIKEN’s overseas facilities in the USA and the UK.
