Abstract
The Hyper-Kamiokande experiment is a next-generation water Cherenkov detector aiming to advance neutrino and astrophysics research. With a 188-kiloton fiducial volume and 40% photo-coverage, Hyper-K will enable precise studies of neutrino oscillations, CP violation, and proton decay. Its sensitivity to cosmic neutrinos positions it to observe solar, supernova, and relic neutrinos, enhancing our understanding of stellar phenomena and cosmic evolution. Anticipated to begin in 2027, Hyper-K will play a pivotal role in multimessenger astrophysics, contributing transformative insights into particle physics and astrophysical events.

Report
This proceedings contribution is a nice summary of the developments and prospects for the Hyper-Kamiokande experiment, highlighting its potential contributions to high-energy physics and astrophysics, where the determination of the CP violation phase clearly stands out but also baryon number violating decays, as well as solar, supernova and relic neutrinos are cornerstones of its attractive program.
Before this is published I would recommend a brief explanation (a reference may suffice) to the Totani model. Also, in the caption of fig. 2, pi_0 should read pi^0.
