Generation of low-energy muons with laser resonant ionization
We have constructed a low-energy muSR spectrometer at RIKEN-RAL muon facility in ISIS, the UK. With low-background of pulsed muon beam, and short pulse width from laser resonant ionization method, it is hoped this instrument will open new possibilities for studies of material sciences with muon beam. It is enphasized that this method is well suited to the facility where intense pulsed proton beam is available.

Radioactive Muonic Atom Studies with Intense Muon Beams
New intense muon beams with flux several orders of magnitude higher than at present muon facilities would allow many novel experimental studies that were until now statistically not feasible. The investigation of the nuclear properties of short‐lived nuclei using muonic atom spectroscopy would become possible. In this paper, the recent progress of a feasibility study at RIKEN‐RAL muon facility using the cold hydrogen film method to produce radioactive muonic atoms is being reported. The first experimental results have just been obtained with stable argon ions implanted in solid deuterium films.

Muon catalyzed fusion experiments on muonic deuterium atom deceleration in thin solid deuterium films
Abstract Muon catalyzed fusion was investigated in a series of thin solid deuterium films by detecting protons from dd fusion. Two different contributions to the total fusion yield resulting from dμ atoms emitted from a primary hydrogen layer and from incident muons directly stopped in the deuterium film itself were observed. The thickness dependence of the fusion yield suggested the importance of molecular effects in dμ elastic scattering in D 2 .

Discovery of the repulsive energy shift of the kaonic hydrogen 1s state
Abstract The aim in this manuscript is to clarify the progress in understanding the nature of the K ¯ N interaction at the lowest energy, given by the recent kaonic hydrogen X-ray experiment at KEK [1]. We have observed a clear spectrum showing the kaonic hydrogen K α line, for the first time. The analysis gives the repulsive energy shift to be Δ E (1 s ) = −323 ± 63(statistical) ± 11 (systematic) eV and the energy width to be Λ(1 s ) = 407 ± 208 ± 100 eV. This result is consistent with analyses of the previous low-energy scattering data and resolves the long-standing kaonic hydrogen puzzle.

PROGRESS OF DESIGN STUDY OF INTERACTION REGION QUADRUPOLES FOR THE SUPER-KEKB
For KEKB upgrade, we are studying the design of the final focus quadrupoles to achieve very small β-functions at the interaction point (IP). For each beam, the final beam focusing system consists of quadrupole-doublet of the superconducting and permanent magnets. In this paper, the design progress of final focusing magnets is reported.

Design and Status of the SuperKEKB Accelerator Control Network System
We have upgraded the accelerator control network system for SuperKEKB, the next generation B-factory experiment in Japan. The designed network system has the higher performance based on the wider bandwidth data transfer, and more reliable and redundant configuration. For the SuperKEKB beamline construction and accelerator components maintenance, we have installed the new wireless network system consists with the Leaky Coaxial (LCX) cable antennas and collinear antennas into the 3 km circumference accelerator tunnel. In this paper, we describe the design and current status of the SuperKEKB accelerator control network system.

Latent heat in the chiral phase transition
The chiral phase transition at finite temperature and density is discussed in the framework of the QCD-like gauge field theory. The thermodynamical potential is investigated using a variational approach. Latent heat generated in the first-order phase transition is calculated. It is found that the latent heat is enhanced near the tricritical point and is more than several hundred MeV per quark.
