Physics Potentials of the Hyper-Kamiokande Second Detector in Korea

Abstract

Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) succeeds the very successful Super-K experiment and will consist of a large detector filled with 260~kton purified water and equipped with 40\% photo-coverage. Physics program of Hyper-K is broad, covering from particle physics to astrophysics and astronomy. The Hyper-K 1st detector will be built in Japan, and the 2nd detector is considered to be built in Korea because locating the 2nd detector in Korea improves physics sensitivities in most cases thanks to the longer baseline (1,100~km) and larger overburden (1,000~m) for Korean candidate sites. In this talk, we present overview and physics potentials of the Hyper-K 2nd detector in Korea.
