We are developing novel physical properties based upon simultaneous symmetry breakings like

　・Modification of electric polarization induced by a magnetic field
　・Change of shape induced by a magnetic field
　・Modification of magnetism induced by an electric field
　・Change in optical anisotropy induced by an electric field
　・Directional birefringence and dichroism

in strongly correlated electron systems. 　We perform synchrotron x-ray and neutron measurements in SPring-8, JRR-3, and J-PARC as well as transport, magnetic, dielectric and optical measurements in our lab.
