Profile

 A doctoral student in Kyoto University. In 1998, Fumiya Hori was born in Taketa, Oita Prefecture, Japan. He became interested in science from a young age because of "Galileo", Japanese television drama. He studied physics at Hiroshima University and graduated in 2020. He is now a 3rd-year PhD student in Department of Physics, Kyoto University.

Profile

　I'm specializing in condensed-matter physics in Kyoto University. My research focuses on the experimental investigation of exotic materials manifesting novel quantum phenomena. Recently, I've mainly performed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)/nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) mesurements on rare-earth-based compounds with strong electron correlations to investigate the magnetic states from a microscopic view.
