The last century the classical astronomy has been developed to astrophysics by introducing modern physics of the quantum theory and the theory of relativity. Thus the astrophysics founded in last one century has several fields such as cosmic ray physics, radio astronomy, X-ray astronomy, gamma-ray astronomy, infrared astronomy, neutrino astronomy and so on. We describe a partial short history and activities of the astrophysics in Japan. Although the astrophysics has widely advanced, we could expect new surprising objects and phenomena in the universe even in the future.

String field theory (SFT) is a field theory having as its dynamical variable the operator (string field) which creates/annihilates a string. It has a huge gauge invariance which is an extension of symmetries in Yang-Mills theory and Einstein gravity theory. Recently, the usefulness of SFT has been recognized through the analysis of tachyon condensation, a nonperturbative phenomenon in string theory. Also SFT is expected to give a fundamental framework of string theory for solving the important problem of whether string theory can reproduce the standard model. Here, I present an introductory review of SFT including the formulation SFT, its application to tachyon condensation and future problems.

Z-Pinch has the nature of contracting by itself to produce a hot dense state spontaneously with the help of surrounding magnetic energy. Although it has been the most promising candidate in the early nuclear fusion research, it was given up immediately because of its unstable nature. With the emergence of the gas-puff Z-pinch, it comes to have a new recognition of Z-pinch as an intense pulsed source of EUV light and soft X-ray, and research on Z-pinch as a driver for inertial confinement fusion is advanced now. Here introduced is Z-pinch as a self-contracting system.

We demonstrate the first experimental realization of the generation of entangled photon pairs via biexciton-resonant hyper parametric scattering in a semiconductor (CuCl). Polarization correlation measurements and quantum tomographic analysis show that the generated photon pairs have a high degree of polarization entanglement.

When the electromagnetic field is detected by stimulated emission, rather than by absorption, antinormally ordered photodetection can be realized. One of the distinct features of this photodetection scheme, i.e., a quantum counter, is its sensitivity to vacuum fluctuations. We have recently succeeded in experimentally demonstrating the quantum counter by exploiting stimulated parametric down-conversion. Here, we present some interesting physics concerning vacuum fluctuations and quantum measurement processes through our experiment on the quantum counter.

Recent high-precision spectroscopy in hydrogen-like heavy ions is reaching the level where nuclear dynamics become significant. The study of nuclear-polarization effects on the atomic energy spectra and the g-factor of the bound electron, together with the study of muonic atoms, provides a new frontier that bridges the atomic physics, nuclear physics, and precision tests of QED. In this report, recent developments of these researches are reviewed.
