- It is an experiment carried out by The High Energy Accelerator Research Organisation, Japan to study violations of the standard model and dark matter.
- It has a highly sensitive particle detector which has better sensitivity, higher than its predecessor, Belle.
- Complementary to the direct search experiments being carried out at the Large Hadron Collider in CERN, Belle-II will indirectly probe new physics using intense electron-positron beams and a sensitive detector.
- The experiment has a significant Indian participation. The particle detector at the heart of Belle –II has been built by Indian Scientists from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research
- Recently, the experiment has been rolled out. It has a grand collaboration of 700 Scientist from 23 countries.
