The International Linear Collider～An international research city that will unlock the mystery of the origin of the universe in Iwate～
■ What is the ILC?
ILC is the acronym for the International Linear Collider. (The word 'linear' indicates that the accelerator forms a straight line, and 'collider' means that it accelerates particles and collides them together.)
This is the name for the international research facility that will try to unlock the mysteries of the origin of the universe. A 31-50 kilometer long tunnel will be constructed approximately 100 meters underground. The accelerator machine will be placed here, where it will be used to conduct experiments that collide electron and positron particles together at almost the speed of light. This creates a state similar to what was found during the birth of the universe.
Researchers will examine the various particles created during the collision, and after analysis will be able to conclude what materials make up the universe and the matter within.
■ The Kitakami Mountains in Iwate Prefecture – A candidate site for the ILC
A candidate site for the tunnel of the ILC must not have any active fault lines and must have a distribution of hard bedrock – within Japan, this leaves the Kitakami Mountains in Iwate Prefecture and the Sefuri Mountains that straddle Fukuoka and Saga Prefectures.
A population of around 10,000 workers, researchers, and their families are estimated to arrive at this international research center once operations start. There are plans to construct an international exchange and residence area in the surrounding area - the creation of an international science and research city. We can also expect the generation of new industries related to the creation of the city.
Iwate Prefecture is currently striving to attract the International Linear Collider to our prefecture. The Iwate International Association is also promoting the creation of the ILC. (We are enrolled in the Iwate Prefecture International Linear Collider Promotion Committee.)
|Magma Hardened in the Cretaceous Period
An Expanse of Granite Boasting Both Hardness and Spaciousness
3.11 Unexpectedly Re-established the Hardness and Unshakability of the Kitakami Mountains.
Even after subjected to the fury of a magnitude 9 earthquake, the Kitakami Mountain tunnel`s observation stations suffered absolutely no damage. Furthermore, in noted places of historic interest at the foot of the mountains including Hiraizumi, which was registered as a World Heritage Site after 3.11, famous temples from the Middle Ages such as Chusonji Temple and Motsuji Temple stand peacefully even now, as if to persuade the world that Kitakami is the place for the International Linear Collider.
|From Depopulation to Revitalization
People and Businesses, Gathering to Make the ILC a Reality
People. Talent. Skill. Enterprise. All Gathering Around the ILC.
If the campaign to bring the ILC to Iwate succeeds, engineers, technicians, particle accelerator specialists, and manufacturers will come to Tohoku to construct the ILC: not only from within the country, but from throughout the world. This will result in increased demand for workers, and many people will rush to Iwate from other prefectures and other countries. To Tohoku, which has struggled with depopulation, the ILC will become a unifying force for intellectual property, manpower, and investors.
Japanese's First Full-Fledged International Town
Together on the Cutting Edge. A Legacy for the Future. Researchers Who Respect Cultural Differences Gathering Together.
Imagine a group of talents, people of Nobel-class excellence, having intense debates in a café. Frequently, they overcome cultural, racial and national boundaries for shared research focused on a common cause. Sometimes they bring their families along and spend time together. They participate in local events. To the infrastructure of the city, this brings innovation—to the traffic network, to environmental systems, and to telecommunications systems—and it brings hospitals, banks, schools, preschools, and other facilities.
|Exploration: Into Space, Into Cells, Into Energy
Tohoku’s Vision, the Dreams of Our Children
The research of the ILC, on the micro level and the macro level, will support creative jobs in all fields and nurture genius.
Various fields will progress through the ILC and through the research conducted there. Not only physics and mathematics, but also materials science and engineering, genetic engineering, medical care and drug development, super computers and measuring instruments, telecommunications, engineering, and countless others. It will give new prospects for the future for all of society, and will surely provide new life dreams and possibilities for our children.

Go for it! Tohoku Big Bang. ～Making the International Linear Collider a Reality～
IWC (International Linear Collider) ni kituo cha utafiti cha kimataifa kinachojulikana kwa jina la IWC (International Linear Collider) ambacho kinafanya kazi katika eneo la Iwate, Japan. ILC ni kifupi cha International Linear Collider. (Neno 'linear' linaonyesha kwamba kiharakishi hufanyiza mstari wa moja kwa moja, na 'collider' inamaanisha kwamba huongeza kasi ya chembe na kuzigongana pamoja.) Jina la kituo cha utafiti wa kimataifa ambacho kitajaribu kufungua fumbo la asili ya ulimwengu. Mfereji wa kilomita 31 na 50 utajengwa chini ya ardhi. Mashine ya kuharakisha itawekwa hapa, ambapo itatumiwa kufanya majaribio ambayo hushambulia chembe za elektroni na positron pamoja kwa karibu kasi ya mwanga. Hilo huunda hali inayofanana na ile iliyopatikana wakati wa kuzaliwa kwa ulimwengu. Watafiti watachunguza chembechembe mbalimbali zilizotengenezwa wakati wa mgongano huo, na baada ya kuchanganua, wataweza kuhitimisha ni vifaa gani vinavyofanyiza ulimwengu na mambo yaliyo ndani yake. Mlima Kitakami katika Iwate Prefecture ni eneo la mgombea kwa IWC, na lazima kuwa na mstari wa msalaba wa kazi na lazima uwe na usambazaji wa mwamba mgumu ndani ya Japan, hii inaacha Milima ya Kitakami katika Iwate Prefecture na Milima ya Sefuri ambayo inashikilia Fukuoka na Saga Prefectures. Inakadiriwa kuwa wafanyakazi 10,000, watafiti na familia zao watakuja katika kituo hiki cha utafiti wa kimataifa mara tu kazi itakapanza. Kuna mipango ya kujenga kubadilishana kimataifa na makazi eneo katika eneo la jirani - uundaji wa sayansi ya kimataifa na utafiti wa mji. Pia tunaweza kutarajia kizazi cha viwanda vipya vinavyohusiana na uundaji wa jiji. Iwate Prefecture kwa sasa ni kujitahidi kuvutia International Linear Collider kwa prefecture yetu. Shirika la Kimataifa la Iwate pia linaendeleza kuanzishwa kwa ILC. (Tumejiandikisha katika Kamati ya Kimataifa ya Kukuza Collider ya Linear ya Jimbo la Iwate.) Magma ya zamani ya Cretaceous: Ubora wa Granite na Ubora wa Kitakami Hata baada ya kuteswa na tetemeko la ardhi lenye nguvu ya 9.5, vituo vya uchunguzi vya handaki la Mlima Kitakami havikuathiriwa hata kidogo. Harajuku pia ni eneo la kihistoria ambalo lilirekodiwa kama Urithi wa Dunia baada ya 3,111 na hekalu maarufu la Chūshūji na Motsuji limesimama kwa amani hata sasa, kana kwamba kuwahamasisha watu wa ulimwengu kwamba Kitakami ni mahali pa International Linear Collider. Kutoka Depopulation kwa Revitalization Watu na Biashara, Kukusanya Kufanya ILC Kuwa Watu wa Ukweli Uwezo. Ujuzi. Kampuni ya Enterprise. Wote Kukusanyika Karibu na ILC. Ikiwa kampeni ya kuleta ILC Iwate itafanikiwa, wahandisi, mafundi, wataalamu wa kiharakiki cha chembe, na watengenezaji watakuja Tohoku kujenga ILC: sio tu kutoka ndani ya nchi, lakini kutoka ulimwenguni kote. Hii itasababisha ongezeko la mahitaji ya wafanyakazi, na watu wengi watakimbilia Iwate kutoka mikoa mingine na nchi nyingine. Kwa Tohoku, ambayo imekuwa ikijitahidi na upungufu wa idadi ya watu, ILC itakuwa nguvu ya kuunganisha kwa mali ya akili, nguvu za kazi, na wawekezaji. Jiji la Kwanza la Kimataifa la Kijapani Pamoja Kwenye Mstari wa Kuchaji. Urithi kwa Ajili ya Wakati Ujao. Watafiti Wanaoheshimu Tofauti za Utamaduni Wakikusanyika Pamoja. Hebu wazia kikundi cha watu wenye vipaji, watu wenye ubora wa kiwango cha Nobel, wakifanya mijadala mikali katika mkahawa. Mara nyingi, wao kushinda utamaduni, jamii na mipaka ya kitaifa kwa ajili ya utafiti pamoja ililenga sababu ya kawaida. Nyakati nyingine wao huleta familia zao pamoja na kutumia wakati pamoja. Wao hushiriki katika matukio ya mahali hapo. Kwa miundombinu ya mji, hii huleta ubunifu - kwa mtandao wa trafiki, kwa mifumo ya mazingira, na kwa mifumo ya mawasiliano ya simu - na huleta hospitali, benki, shule, shule za chekechea, na vifaa vingine. """Kujaribu: Katika nafasi, katika seli, katika nishati"" - Maono ya Tohoku, ndoto za watoto wetu - Utafiti wa ILC, katika kiwango cha micro na kiwango cha macro, utasaidia kazi za ubunifu katika nyanja zote na kukuza kipaji." Maendeleo ya utafiti yatatokea katika maeneo mbalimbali kupitia ILC na kupitia utafiti unaofanywa huko. Si tu fizikia na hisabati, lakini pia sayansi ya vifaa na uhandisi, uhandisi wa maumbile, huduma za matibabu na maendeleo ya dawa, super kompyuta na vyombo vya kupima, mawasiliano ya simu, uhandisi, na wengine wengi. "Hiyo itatoa matarajio mapya ya siku zijazo kwa jamii nzima na hakika itatoa ndoto mpya za maisha na uwezekano kwa watoto wetu.
