Anthony Ichirō Sanda ( Japanese 三 田 一郎 , Sanda Ichirō ; born March 4, 1944 ) is a Japanese-American theoretical elementary particle physicist.

Sanda graduated from the University of Illinois (bachelor's degree in 1965) and received her PhD from Princeton University in 1969 . He was then a scientist at Columbia University and from 1971 to 1974 at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory . 1974 to 1992 he was first assistant professor and then associate professor at Rockefeller University and from 1992 professor of physics at Nagoya University , where he was head of the physics department of the natural science faculty in 1997/98. He has been at Kanagawa University since 2006 .

Sanda is known for his work on CP injury in the B meson system, collaborating with Ikaros Bigi . Their prediction from 1980 was experimentally confirmed in 2001 in "B-meson factories" at SLAC and KEK in Japan (the violation of the CP symmetry in the K-meson system had been confirmed since 1964 by the Nobel Prize-winning work of James Cronin , Val Fitch known). A CP-violating mechanism is necessary to explain the baryogenesis , but the effect observed in the K meson system is currently too small for this.

In 1993 he received the Inoue Foundation Prize , the Nishina Prize in 1997 , the Chunichi Culture Prize in Japan in 2002 and the Japanese State Order of Merit on the purple ribbon in the fall of the same year . In 2002 he received the Mercator Visiting Professorship. In 2004 he received the Sakurai Prize with Ikaros Bigi .
