This is a yearly schedule for the laboratory.
There are plenty of events such as taking classes, presenting results at presentations and QM meetings, conducting demonstration experiments at Lorenz festivals and open campuses, and deepening friends through recreation.
| April | Early: Laboratory Meeting | We decide the staff of the laboratory and have discussions. |
| Late: Cryogen handling class | Learn about handling liquid nitrogen and liquid helium. | |
| May | Early: International Conference @ Canada | M1 and M2 and Maeno joined. |
| Late: Factory training | For M1. Learn how to use a drill etc. at a factory in the university. | |
| June | Early (holiday): Spring recreation (+ drinking party) | About 20 people including laboratory staff and OB will go on an excursion. |
| Mid: Lorenz Festival | Demonstration experiments and lab tours will be held on the open campus for undergraduate students. | |
| Mid: Chemical class | For 4th grade students and some people. Learn how to handle and dispose of chemicals. | |
| Late: Research project Q4 small presentation | 4th year students will give a brief presentation on the theme of their graduation research. | |
| Late: Intensive lecture | Intensive lecture of 9 frames in 3 days. For example, lectures on topological insulators. | |
| July | Mid: International Conference @ France | Students and staff of doctoral degree and above participated. |
| Late: X-ray training | Learn how to handle devices that use radioactive materials and X-rays. | |
