  1. Memories of Jiro at Kyoto, SLAC and Hiroshima Ken Sasaki Yokohama National University Towards precision QCD physics dedicated to the memory of Jiro Kodaira07.3.10

  2. Jiro at Kyoto • Graduated from Kyoto Univ. in 1974 • Finished Ph.D in 1979 • 1979-1980 RA at YITP, Kyoto Univ. We were young, anticipating bright future and happy • Particle physics group at Kyoto Univ. at that time Students were admitted into faculties’ offices • Jiro was at Matsuda’ office for years.

  3. At Mt. Atago At home of M. Kobayashi (1976) (1977 ?)

  4. I shared office with Jiro for six months in 1976-77 • His desk was always tidy and cleaned up • His notebooks Jiro’note Tsuneo’s note My note

  5. He loved coffee • He loved sake • He loved to play GO • He fell in love with Mieko • Analysis of hadronic decays of Ψ/J particles in generalized Veneziano models, J. Kodaira and K. S. ; Phys. Rev. D17, 1381-1388 (1978) • Analysis of hadronic decays of Ψ/J particles in generalized Veneziano models.II. The Ψ -> 3πdecay, J. Kodaira and K. S. ; Phys. Rev. D18, 786-790 (1978) • Analysis of hadronic decays of Ψ/J particles in generalized Veneziano models III. The Ψ -> KKπdecay, J. Kodaira and K. S. ; Phys. Rev. D18, 4164-4169 (1978) • QCD effects in polarized electroproduction, J. Kodaira, S. Matsuda, T. Muta, T. Uematsu and K. S. ; Phys. Rev. D20, 627-629 (1979) • QCD higher order effects in spin-dependent deep inelastic electroproduction, J. Kodaira, S. Matsuda, T. Uematsu and K. S. ; Nucl. Phys. B159, 99-124 (1979) • Study of the reaction pp -> Ψn in generalized Veneziano models, J. Kodaira and K. S. ; Lett. Nuovo Cim. 26, 417-422 (1979)

  6. I visited his parents’ home at Suwa in 1979 Jiro grew up at Suwa Suwa Taisha Lake Suwa

  7. We were treated to regional specialites Horse meat LocustsBee embryos “ Catch of the day” from Lake Suwa

  8. Jiro at SLAC • 1980-1982 JSPS Fellow at SLAC (Postdocs: J. Kodaira, L. Trentadue, S. Parke,J. Polchinski, G. Bodwin, E. Kovac, C. Peterson, S. Gupta, ….…, K. S. • He loved cars (He drove a big red Cadillac) Picnic at SLAC (1980)

  9. He loved wine Wine tasting at Napa Valley (1980)

  10. Jiro at Hiroshima • 1983-2005 at Hiroshima Univ. • He was an excellent teacher and mentor. • He supervised many students for their Ph.D theses Mt. Aso in Kyushu (1996)

  11. He loved cars (He drove a BMW) • He was a gourmet Lobster One of his favorite places Sole

  12. He organized International Symposium on “QCD Corrections and New Physcs” at Hiroshima in 1997 • The mass of the lightest supersymmetric Higgs boson beyond the leading logarithm approximation, J. Kodaira, Y. Yasui and K. S.; Phys. Rev. D50, 7035-7041 (1994) • The background field method: Alternative way of deriving the pinch technique's results, S. Hashimoto, J. Kodaira, Y. Yasui and K. S.; Phys. Rev. D50, 7066-7076 (1994) • More on the Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule in QCD, J. Kodaira, S. Matsuda, T. Uematsu and K. S.; Phys. Lett. B345, 527-531 (1995)

  13. It is very sad to admit that Jiro is no longer with us but I WILL neverforget his contributions to particle physics and also our friendship for more than 30 years.
