Supersymmetry contributions to CP violations in b→s and b→d transitions taking account of new data
We study the contribution of the gluino-squark mediated flavor changing process for the CP violation in $b\to s$ and $b\to d$ transitions facing on recent experimental data. The mass insertion parameters of squarks are constrained by the branching ratios of $b\to s\gamma $ and $b\to d\gamma $ decays. In addition, the time dependent CP asymmetries of $B^0\to \phi K_S$ and $B^0\to \eta ' K^0$ decays severely restrict the allowed region of the mass insertion parameter for the $b\to s$ transition. By using these constraints with squark and gluino masses of 1.5 TeV, we predict the CP asymmetries of $B_s\to \phi \phi $, $B_s\to \eta '\phi $, and $B^0\to K^0\bar K^0$ decays, as well as the CP asymmetries in $b\to s\gamma $ and $b\to d\gamma $ decays. The CP violation in the $B_s\to \phi \phi$ decay is expected to be large owing to the squark flavor mixing, which will be tested at LHCb soon.

Non‐Abelian discrete symmetry for flavors
We present a mathematical short review on non-Abelian discrete groups that could be used as reference introduction to the actual flavor models proposed to account for the observed flavor structure of quarks and leptons. For the practical purpose of flavor model building, we present group-theoretical aspects of S3, S4, A4, D4, Δ(27) and Δ(54).

Deviation from tri-bimaximal mixing and flavor symmetry breaking in a seesaw type A(4) model
Abstract We have studied the contribution of higher order corrections of the flavor symmetry breaking in the A 4 seesaw model with the supersymmetry. Taking account of possible higher dimensional mass operators, we predict the deviation from the tri-bimaximal lepton mixing for both normal hierarchy and inverted hierarchy of neutrino masses. We have found that the value of sin 2 2 θ 23 is larger than 0.96 and the upper bound of sin 2 θ 13 is 0.01. We have also examined the flavor changing neutral current of leptons from the soft SUSY breaking in slepton masses and A-terms within the framework of supergravity theory. Those magnitudes are enough suppressed to be consistent with experimental constraints.

Deviations from tri-bimaximality and quark-lepton complementarity
We study deviations from tri-bimaximality (TBM) and quark-lepton complementarity (QLC) in a model-independent way. The current neutrino experimental data is well approximated by tri-bimaximal generation mixing but the QLC relations are not satisfied with each data of 1σ level. This means that there exist deviations from the complementarity. The same fact for the TBM might be checked in the future neutrino experiments. We discuss such deviations from the TBM and QLC, simultaneously. A new ratio between the deviations is introduced, and some interesting points are presented. We also show predicted correlations among leptonic mixing angles at the points.

Soft Octupole Vibrations with K = 0 and K ≠0 Built on Superdeformed Rotational Bands and Static Pairing Correlations
Properties of low-lying octupole vibrations (with K =0, I, 2 and 3) built on superdeformed rotational bands are investigated by means of the RP A in a uniformly rotating frame. Large configuration space composed of 9 major shells is used. Numerical examples are presented for the superdeformed band in 192Hg as a typical case where appreciable amount of static pairing correlations remains at finite values of the rotational frequency. We obtain strongly collective low-frequency octupole vibrations with K=O, 1 and 2. It is shown that the properties of the K=1 octupole vibrations are especially sensitive to the static pairing correlations. The Coriolis-mixings among these soft octupole vibrations are shown to become important when the rotational frequency Wro' <0.2 MeV/n.

Microscopic Study of Wobbling Motions in Hf and Lu Nuclei
One of the most striking findings in the recent high-spin spectroscopy is the discovery of one-phonon, and possibly double-phonon, excitation of the nuclear wobbling rotational bands. In this talk, we first review the properties of observed wobbling motions, and discuss the failure and success of the possible interpretation in terms of the simple rotor model. Then, we further present results of our microscopic study in Hf and Lu nuclei by means of the theoretical framework, the cranked mean-field and the random phase approximation.

Nuclear prolate-shape dominance with the Woods-Saxon potential
We study the prolate-shape predominance of the nuclear ground-state deformation by calculating the masses of more than two thousand even-even nuclei using the Strutinsky method, modified by Kruppa, and improved by us. The influences of the surface thickness of the single-particle potentials, the strength of the spin-orbit potential, and the pairing correlations are investigated by varying the parameters of the Woods-Saxon potential and the pairing interaction. The strong interference between the effects of the surface thickness and the spin-orbit potential is confirmed to persist for six sets of the Woods-Saxon potential parameters. The observed behavior of the ratios of prolate, oblate, and spherical nuclei versus potential parameters are rather different in different mass regions. It is also found that the ratio of spherical nuclei increases for weakly bound unstable nuclei. Differences of the results from the calculations with the Nilsson potential are described in detail.

Radioactive ion beam transportation for the fundamental symmetry study with laser-trapped atoms.
The search for the violation of the fundamental symmetry in a radioactive atom is the promising candidate for precision tests of the standard model and its possible extensions. The subtle signal arising from the symmetry violation is enhanced in heavy atoms, such as a francium (Fr). To realize high precision measurements, a large amount of radioactive isotopes is required. The Fr is produced via a nuclear fusion reaction using a melted gold target with a (18)O primary beam at Cyclotron and Radioisotope Center, Tohoku University. The maximum extraction efficiency of the Fr ion was achieved at approximately 35%. The beam line consists of an electrostatic deflector, three electrostatic quadrupole triplets to the measurement area at 10 m away from the reaction point, and several beam diagnosis systems. We optimized parameters of the beam line.
