LINE sticker “Kawaii Particle Physics” in store soon!!

| 5 April 2018

Japan’s Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science and Technology (AAA) will release their first set of LINE stickers “Kawaii Particle Physics” at LINE Creators Market. The set features three particle characters; Higgs-kun, Ms. Dark matter, and of course, the ILC.

LINE, a communication app for smartphones, is available worldwide, and especially popular among the young generation in Japan. Users can download and buy emojis and stickers to personalise their chats. Kawaii is a very Japanese concept: the word itself means “cute”, and anything can be “cutified” in it – including particle colliders. To reach out to those young LINE users, AAA created a set of 40 stickers which is almost ready for its release.
