This report covers (often abbreviated as Super-K or SK ), a massive underground neutrino observatory located in the Kamioka Mine, Japan. Overview

A cylindrical stainless steel tank measuring approximately 39.3 meters in diameter and 41.4 meters in height . Medium: It contains 50,000 tons of ultra-pure water . Super K

Super-Kamiokande is the world's largest water Cherenkov detector, designed to study neutrinos from various sources and search for proton decay. It is operated by an international collaboration of about 240 researchers from roughly 50 institutes worldwide. This report covers (often abbreviated as Super-K or

When a neutrino interacts with water, it can produce a charged particle moving faster than the speed of light in water. This creates Cherenkov light , a faint blue flash detected by the PMTs. Scientific Achievements Super K
