Description

At present experiments with a new Belle II detector at SuperKEKB collider has started at KEK (Japan). These new experiments will continue and widen the studies began at the previous experiments with the Belle detector. The luminosity of the SuperKEKB collider will exceed the previous one by about 40 times, amounting to $8\times 10^{35}$cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$. The main features of the collider and detector as well as the current status of the SuperKEKB/Belle II project are reported in this talk. Main physics motivations, goals and perspectives of this experiment for two-photon physics are discussed as well.
