For the purpose of properly controlling communication using a number of cells including cells that use different numerologies than existing LTE systems, a user terminal that communicates by using a number of cells including a first cell and a second cell has a receiving section that receives, from the first cell, information about synchronization between the first cell and the second cell and/or information about a configuration of a synchronization signal block in the second cell, and a control section that controls a processes for connecting with the second cell based on the information about synchronization and/or the information about the configuration of the synchronization signal block.
