After covering the construction of six detector modules here at Warwick, BBC reporter David Gregory has been following up the T2K experiment's progress. Dr Gary Barker hosted him in Japan at J-Parc: home of T2K's accelerator and near-detector, where the Warwick modules are being installed. Those watching BBC News this week will have seen his reports and interviews with Dr Barker.

Communicating the work that T2K is doing is an important part of our work: bringing the benefits of research to the whole of society, and national news coverage is one of the best ways we can do that!

Check out the article on the BBC news website, and read about David Gregory's impressions of science in Japan and funding in the UK on his blog.

The magnet surrounding T2K's near-detector (ND280) was closed up today (26.01.2010) in preparation for data taking beginning next week! The magnet won't be opened again until the summer when the remaining detectors will be installed. See the YouTube video of the closing.

To coincide with our completion of the first detector ever built by the Warwick EPP group (the P0D Ecal Left module), Warwick Communications Office filmed a podcast featuring the T2K experiment. Thanks to Lesley Scrine who produced this!

On Sunday 12th December the T2K group featured in a short story on BBC Midlands' Today programme, talking about the construction of the first P0D ECal module.

Early on in the group's development, the Warwick iCast team visited to report on the beginning of work on, amongst other things, the T2K project. View the iCast on YouTube.
