Source-derived summary

Anthony Ichiro Sanda (三田 一郎, Sanda Ichirō; born March 4, 1944) is a Japanese-American particle physicist. Along with Ikaros Bigi, he was awarded the 2004 Sakurai Prize for his work on CP violation and B meson decays.

Academic life

Sanda studied at the University of Illinois (B.S. 1965) and Princeton University (Ph.D. 1969). He was a researcher at Columbia University from 1971 to 1974 and Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. From 1974 to 1992, he was an Assistant Professor and then associate professor at Rockefeller University. From 1992, he was a professor of physics at Nagoya University. Since 2006, he is a Professor Emeritus at Nagoya University and a professor at Kanagawa University. Since 2007, he is also a Program Officer of the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe, University of Tokyo. His major works are the proposal of a renormalizable gauge fixing method in broken gauge symmetric theory and the development of the theory of CP violations in B meson decays that has proven the Kobayashi-Maskawa Theory and has given a strong motivation for the experiments in Belle at KEK, Japan and BaBar at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, USA as well as fixing the necessary parameters of the accelerators to perform the experiments.

Religious life

As a devout Roman Catholic, Sanda is an ordained permanent deacon at St.

Editorial summary

“Anthony Ichiro Sanda” enters the record as japanese-American Physicist. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Anthony, Ichiro and Sanda can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1944, 2004, 1965, 1969—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1944-03-04. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Anthony, Ichiro and Sanda.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Anthony Ichiro Sanda” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Anthony, Ichiro and Sanda provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 1, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q440006. VIAF identifies the subject as 114683003. The Library of Congress control number is n95116713. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1944, 2004, 1965 and 1969.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
