Originally didjuridu was a local musical instrument used in Arnhem Land, the northern part of Australia. It is still played in funerals, initiation rites or Corroboree.In the 1960s, through Kimberley or Balgo Hill, or directly from Arnhem Land, didjuridu spread to the central and western desert areas. It was played to attract the attention of tourists who visited tourist attractions such as Uluru and to sell art crafts representing Aboriginal culture. Around this time some white people started playing this instrument.After the 1980s, didjuridu was widely played as "an ethnic instrument" in southeastern cities.Around this period urban Aboriginal people learned how to play it. In this way didjuridu became popular among white Australians, but yet it was still played at traditional ceremonies or rituals inArnhem Land. Thus, for urban Aboriginal people, playing didjuridu assured their Aboriginality.In the 1980s it became known overseas. In concert with the New Age movement or along with the World Music Boom, it came into fashion in America, Europe, and Japan. In Japan didjuridu lovers formed some groups such as Earth Tube, Dincum OZ Club, etc.Globalized didjuridu is now under the control of Aboriginals in Arnhem Land, as they have held the Garma Festival each year since 1999, where they give lectures on didjuridu and their culture, and teach performing techniques of didjuridu, asking people all over the world to join them.

宇宙から飛来する極限的高エネルギーを持った素粒子を検出し、その到来方向・エネルギー・粒子種を求め、活動銀河、銀河の衝突など宇宙における極限的高エネルギー現象を解明するための観測装置が、日米韓露の国際共同研究として、2008年から米国ユタ州で稼働し続けている。本研究では、この観測装置のエネルギー較正のための「標準光源」として、射出方向可変で、持ち運び可能な紫外線レーザー光源を製作し、その性能を評価し、較正装置として十分な性能を有していることを確認した。本格的な較正装置としての運用は2011年度から開始される。
