Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed 5804 days of Super-Kamiokande data from 1996 to 2018 to detect variations in solar ^{8}B neutrino flux.
  • The researchers utilized a five-day interval measurement approach and employed maximum likelihood and Lomb-Scargle methods to find any periodic modulations.
  • They found a significant modulation related to Earth's elliptical orbit around the Sun, with measurements of eccentricity and perihelion shift aligning with astronomical data.

Although Japan's healthcare delivery system is highly regarded internationally, the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed its structural problems. Behind these issues lies a history of medical care provisions supported mainly by an unrestricted, "free labeling" system, and independently financed private hospitals. In addition, patients have a high degree of freedom of choice under the Japanese medical insurance system, making it difficult to provide comprehensive and continuous health management from initial diagnosis and treatment (primary care), specialized treatment, to supporting a return to home, providing nursing care and lifestyle support.

Article Synopsis
  • - The T2K experiment reports enhanced measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters through new proton-on-target (POT) neutrino data, significantly improving analysis methods with a major focus on the near detector's new selection procedures.
  • - This analysis is the first to utilize data from the NA61/SHINE experiment, helping to refine the neutrino flux model and enhance the neutrino interaction model by incorporating new nuclear effects.
  • - Both frequentist and Bayesian approaches indicate a preference for normal mass ordering and a nearly maximal CP-violating phase, with notable exclusions and constraints on certain parameters aligning with past T2K studies.

We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37  megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center.
