    Muonic He (μHe) is a hydrogen-like atom composed of a helium atom with one of its electrons replaced by a negative muon. Measurements of the ground-state hyperfine structure (HFS) interval of the μHe atom is a sensitive tool to test the three-body atomic system, bound-state quantum electrodynamics (QED) theory, and determine fundamental constants of the negative muon magnetic moment and mass. It allows a test of the CPT theorem in muons by comparing these constants with positive muons. Precise measurements of the ground-state HFS interval using a microwave magnetic resonance technique are now in progress at J-PARC by the MuSEUM collaboration. Furthermore, a new experimental approach to recover the muon polarization lost during the muon cascade process is being investigated by repolarizing μHe atoms using a spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) technique. The first laser repolarization experiment was recently performed. An overview of the different features of these new μHe atom HFS measurements and the latest results are presented.

    To solve the "neutron lifetime puzzle,"where measured neutron lifetimes differ depending on the measurement methods, an experiment with a pulsed neutron beam at J-PARC is in progress. In this experiment, neutrons are bunched into 40-cm lengths using a spin flip chopper (SFC), where the statistical sensitivity was limited by the aperture size of the SFC. The SFC comprises three sets of magnetic supermirrors and two resonant spin flippers. In this paper, we discuss an upgrade to enlarge the apertures of the SFC. With this upgrade, the statistics per unit time of the neutron lifetime experiment increased by a factor of 2.8, while maintaining a signal-to-noise ratio of 250-400, which is comparable to the previous one. Consequently, the time r equir ed to r each a pr ecision of 1 s in the neutron lifetime ex- periment was reduced from 590 to 170 days, which is a significant reduction in time. This improvement in the statistics will also contribute to the reduction of systematic uncertain- ties, such as background evaluation, fostering further advancements in the neutron lifetime experiments at J-PARC.

    Measurements of circular polarization of γ-ray emitted from neutron capture reactions provide valuable information for nuclear physics studies. The spin and parity of excited states can be determined by measuring the circular polarization from polarized neutron capture reactions. Furthermore, the γ-ray circular polarization in a neutron capture resonance is crucial for studying the enhancement effect of parity nonconservation in compound nuclei. The γ-ray circular polarization can be measured using a polarimeter based on magnetic Compton scattering. A polarimeter was constructed, and its performance indicators were evaluated using a circularly polarized γ-ray beam. Finally, as a demonstration, the γ-ray circular polarization was measured in 32S(n,γ)33S reactions with polarized neutrons.

    The detection of low-frequency gravitational waves on Earth requires the reduction of displacement noise, which dominates the low-frequency band. One method to cancel test mass displacement noise is a neutron displacement-noise-free interferometer (DFI). This paper proposes a new neutron DFI configuration, a Sagnac-type neutron DFI, which uses a Sagnac interferometer in place of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. We demonstrate that a sensitivity of the Sagnac-type neutron DFI is higher than that of a conventional neutron DFI with the same interferometer scale. This configuration is particularly significant for neutron DFIs with limited space for construction and limited flux from available neutron sources.

    Producing a polarized lanthanum (La) target with high polarization and long relaxation time is crucial for realizing time-reversal violation experiments using polarized neutron beams. We use a LaAlO3 crystal doped with a small amount of Nd3+ ions for the polarized lanthanum target. Optimizing the amount of Nd3+ ions is considerably important because the achievable polarization and relaxation time strongly depend on this amount. We established a fundamental method to grow single crystals of Nd3+:LaAlO3 using an optical floating zone method that employs halogen lamps and evaluated the crystals with the dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) method for polarizing nuclear spins. Two crystal samples were grown by ourselves and evaluated with the DNP at 1.3 K and 2.3 T for the first time, except for the target materials of protons. The enhancement of nuclear magnetic resonance signals for 139La and 27Al was successfully observed, and the enhancement factors were eventually 3.5 ± 0.3 and 13 ± 3 for the samples with Nd3+ ions of 0.05 and 0.01 mol. %, respectively. These enhancement factors correspond to absolute vector polarizations of 0.27% ± 0.02% (Nd3+ 0.05 mol. %) and 1.4% ± 0.3% (Nd3+ 0.01 mol. %). Although the obtained polarizations are still low, they are acceptable as a first step. The combination scheme of the crystal growth and the evaluation of the crystals is found to be effectively applicable for optimizing the amount of Nd3+ ions for improving the performance of the polarized target.

    Neutron transmission experiments can offer a new type of highly sensitive search for time-reversal invariance violating (TRIV) effects in nucleon-nucleon interactions via the same enhancement mechanism observed for large parity violating (PV) effects in neutron-induced compound nuclear processes. In these compound processes, the TRIV cross section is given as the product of the PV cross section, a spin factor κ, and a ratio of TRIV and PV matrix elements. We determined κ to be 0.59±0.05 for La139+n using both (n,γ) spectroscopy and (n→ +139La→) transmission. This result quantifies for the first time the high sensitivity of the La139 0.75-eV p-wave resonance in a future search for effects of P-odd/T-odd interactions in (n→ +139La→) forward transmission.

    We measured the spin-dependent cross section at a neutron-induced p-wave resonance using a polarized epithermal neutron beam and a polarized nuclear target. Our study focuses on the 0.75 eV p-wave resonance of La139+n, where previous experiments have shown a large enhancement of parity violation. The spin dependence of the neutron absorption cross section of polarized La139 and polarized neutrons determines the partial neutron width of the p-wave resonance. This partial width is a key parameter needed to determine the sensitivity of this system to possible parity-odd and time reversal-odd interactions beyond the standard model. Our findings therefore serve as a foundation for a future search for time reversal violation in this compound nuclear system.

    This study entailed the successful deployment of a novel neutron interferometer that utilizes multilayer mirrors. The apparatus facilitates a precise evaluation of the wavelength dependence of interference fringes utilizing a pulsed neutron source. Our interferometer achieved an impressive precision of 0.02 rad within a 20-min recording time. Compared to systems using silicon crystals, the measurement sensitivity was maintained even when using a simplified disturbance suppressor. By segregating beam paths entirely, we achieved successful measurements of neutron-nuclear scattering lengths across various samples. The values measured for Si, Al, and Ti were in agreement with those found in the literature, while V showed a disparity of 45%. This discrepancy may be attributable to impurities encountered in previous investigations. The accuracy of measurements can be enhanced further by mitigating systematic uncertainties that are associated with neutron wavelength, sample impurity, and thickness. This novel neutron interferometer enables us to measure fundamental parameters, such as the neutron-nuclear scattering length of materials, with a precision that surpasses that of conventional interferometers.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon 1 (EUSO-SPB1) was launched in 2017 April from Wanaka, New Zealand. The plan of this mission of opportunity on a NASA super pressure balloon test flight was to circle the southern hemisphere. The primary scientific goal was to make the first observations of ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray extensive air showers (EASs) by looking down on the atmosphere with an ultraviolet (UV) fluorescence telescope from suborbital altitude (33 km). After 12 days and 4 h aloft, the flight was terminated prematurely in the Pacific Ocean. Before the flight, the instrument was tested extensively in the West Desert of Utah, USA, with UV point sources and lasers. The test results indicated that the instrument had sensitivity to EASs of ⪆3 EeV. Simulations of the telescope system, telescope on time, and realized flight trajectory predicted an observation of about 1 event assuming clear sky conditions. The effects of high clouds were estimated to reduce this value by approximately a factor of 2. A manual search and a machine-learning-based search did not find any EAS signals in these data. Here we review the EUSO-SPB1 instrument and flight and the EAS search.

    Muonic helium atom hyperfine structure (HFS) measurements are a sensitive tool to test the three-body atomic system and bound-state quantum electrodynamics theory, and determine fundamental constants of the negative muon magnetic moment and mass. The world's most intense pulsed negative muon beam at the Muon Science Facility of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex allows improvement of previous measurements and testing further CPT invariance by comparing the magnetic moments and masses of positive and negative muons (second-generation leptons). We report new ground-state HFS measurements of muonic helium-4 atoms at a near-zero magnetic field, performed for the first time using a small admixture of CH4 as an electron donor to form neutral muonic helium atoms efficiently. Our analysis gives Δν=4464.980(20) MHz (4.5 ppm), which is more precise than both previous measurements at weak and high fields. The muonium ground-state HFS was also measured under the same conditions to investigate the isotopic effect on the frequency shift due to the gas density dependence in He with CH4 admixture and compared with previous studies. Muonium and muonic helium can be regarded as light and heavy hydrogen isotopes with an isotopic mass ratio of 36. No isotopic effect was observed within the current experimental precision.

    The strong electric field inside a crystal interacting with dynamically-diffracted neutrons by a single crystal can be used in experiments to search for the electric dipole moment of neutrons. This intra-crystal electric field can be evaluated from the neutron spin rotation derived from the dynamical diffraction. Neutron spin rotations from multiple crystal planes were observed simultaneously using pulsed neutrons with a single SiO2 crystal. The spin rotation of dynamically-diffracted neutrons from (110)-crystal plane with the symmetric Laue configuration was consistent with the spin rotation calculated from the intra-crystal electric field reported by the previous experiments. In addition, the spin rotation was also studied for the (02̄1)-, (011)- and (111̄)-crystal planes, which are asymmetric Laue configurations. There have been no previous studies of spin rotations or intra-crystal electric fields on these crystal planes. The experimental results suggest that spin rotation can occur even on crystal planes where it was previously thought that the spin rotation could not occur due to zero intra-crystal electric field. This information is important to study the sensitivity and the systematic uncertainties in nEDM search experiments by crystal diffractions.

    Metal tubes plated with nickel-phosphorus are used in many fundamental physics experiments that use ultracold neutrons (UCN) because of their ease of fabrication. These tubes are usually polished to an average roughness of 25-150nm. However, there is no scattering model that accurately describes UCN scattering on such a rough guide surface with a mean-square roughness greater than 5nm. We, therefore, developed a scattering model for UCN in which scattering from random surface waviness with a size larger than the UCN wavelength is described by a microfacet Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function model (mf-BRDF model), and scattering from smaller structures by the Lambert's cosine law (Lambert model). For the surface waviness, we used the statistical distribution of surface slope measured by an atomic force microscope on a sample piece of guide tube as an input of the model. This model was used to describe UCN transmission experiments conducted at the pulsed UCN source in J-PARC. In these experiments, a UCN beam collimated to a divergence angle smaller than ±6° was directed into a guide tube with a mean-square roughness of 6.4 to 17nm at an oblique angle, and the UCN transport performance and its time-of-flight distribution were measured while changing the angle of incidence. The mf-BRDF model combined with the Lambert model with scattering probability pL=0.039±0.003 reproduced the experimental results well. We have thus established a procedure to evaluate the characteristics of UCN guide tubes with a surface roughness of approximately 10nm.

    We are addressing the development of a polarized lanthanum (139La) target by applying a standard dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) technique to a single crystal of lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO3) doped with neodymium ions (Nd3+), which is very attractive to search for violating effects of the time-reversal invariance with neutrons. The use of the LaAlO3 crystals as target material is very crucial to extend the spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) through the optimization of the Nd3+ concentration. We have almost established a method for precise control of the Nd3+ amount and this method has allowed us to grow the crystal with 0.01 mol% concentration differently from the 0.05 mol% reached before. Simple DNP experiments using a single-shot dewar at 1.3 K and 2.3 T allowed the evaluation of the T1 and the maximum polarization of these crystals. By that we have found that the 0.01 mol% concentration is the best one among the crystals tested in the past. Both, T1 and the maximum polarization of the 0.01 mol% crystal, have not been exactly obtained because of the long relaxation time, Thus, the preparation of a new DNP system is in progress toward DNP experiments for long-term measurement.

    A neutron-energy dependent angular distribution was measured for individual γ rays from the 3.2 eV p-wave resonance of Xe131+n, that shows enhanced parity violation owing to a mixing between s- and p-wave amplitudes. The γ-ray transitions from the p-wave resonance were identified, and the angular distribution with respect to the neutron momentum was evaluated as a function of the neutron energy for 7132 keV γ rays, which correspond to a transition to the 1807 keV excited state of Xe132. The angular distribution is considered to originate from the interference between s- and p-wave amplitudes, and will provide a basis for a quantitative understanding of the enhancement mechanism of the fundamental parity violation in compound nuclei.

    For further gravitational wave (GW) detections, it is significant to invent a technique to reduce all kinds of mirror displacement noise dominant at low frequencies for ground-based detectors. The neutron displacement-noise-free interferometer (DFI) is one of the tools to reduce all the mirror displacement noise at lower frequencies. In this paper, we describe a further simplified configuration of a neutron DFI in terms of neutron incidence direction. In the new configuration, neutrons enter the interferometer with unidirectional incidence at four speeds as opposed to two bidirectional incidences of opposite directions at two speeds as reported previously. This simplification of the neutron DFI is significant for proof-of-principle experiments.

    Measurements of the muonic helium atom hyperfine structure (HFS) are a sensitive tool to test the theory of three-body atomic systems and bound-state quantum electrodynamics (QED) and to determine fundamental constants of the negative muon magnetic moment and mass. The world's most intense pulsed negative muon beam at J-PARC MUSE brings an opportunity to improve previous measurements and test further CPT invariance by comparing the magnetic moments and masses of positive and negative muons. Test measurements at D-line are now in progress utilizing MuSEUM apparatus at zero field. The first results already have better accuracy than previous measurements in the 1980s. Also, the investigation of a new experimental approach to improve HFS measurements by repolarizing muonic helium atoms using a spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) technique was started. If successful, this would drastically improve the measurement accuracy.

    Largely enhanced parity-violating effects observed in compound resonances induced by epithermal neutrons are currently attributed to the mixing of parity-unfavored partial amplitudes in the entrance channel of the compound states. Furthermore, it is proposed that the same mechanism that enhances the parity violation also enhances the breaking of time-reversal invariance in the compound nucleus. The entrance-channel mixing induces energy-dependent spin-angular correlations of individual γ rays emitted from the compound nuclear state. For a detailed study of the mixing model, the γ-ray yield in the reaction of Sn117(n,γ)Sn118 was measured using a pulsed beam of polarized epithermal neutrons and Ge detectors. An angular dependence of asymmetric γ-ray yields for the orientation of the neutron polarization was observed.

    The improvement of sensitivity to gravitational waves (GWs) at lower frequencies is still challenging on account of displacement noise. One of the solutions is the neutron displacement-noise-free interferometer (DFI). We focus on a simplification of the detector configuration by taking advantage of the ability to adjust the neutron speed depending on the configuration. The new configuration consists of two beamsplitters and two mirrors, which constitute a single Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). It is simpler than the configuration with two MZIs in previous research. All displacement noise of mirrors and beamsplitters can be canceled in the frequency domain. This cancellation can be explained intuitively using a phasor diagram.

    Hypothetical short-range interactions could be detected by measuring the wavefunctions of gravitationally bound ultracold neutrons (UCNs) on a mirror in the Earth's gravitational field. Searches for them with higher sensitivity require detectors with higher spatial resolution. We developed and have been improving an UCN detector with a high spatial resolution, which consists of a Si substrate, a thin converter layer including 10B4C, and a layer of fine-grained nuclear emulsion. Its resolution was estimated to be less than 100 nm by fitting tracks of either 7Li nuclei or α-particles, which were created when neutrons interacted with the 10B4C layer. For actual measurements of the spatial distributions, the following two improvements were made. The first improvement was to establish a method to align microscopic images with high accuracy within a wide region of 65 mm × 0.2 mm. We created reference marks of 1 μm and 5 μm diameter with an interval of 50 μm and 500 μm, respectively, on the Si substrate by electron beam lithography and realized a position accuracy of less than 30 nm. The second improvement was to build a holder for the detector that could maintain the atmospheric pressure around the nuclear emulsion to utilize it under a vacuum during exposure to UCNs. The intrinsic resolution of the improved detector was estimated to be better than 0.56(8) μm by evaluating the blur of a transmission image of a gadolinium grating taken by cold neutrons. The evaluation included the precision of the gadolinium grating. A test exposure was conducted to obtain the spatial distribution of UCNs in the quantized states on a mirror in the Earth's gravitational field. The distribution was obtained, fitted with the theoretical curve, and turned out to be reasonable for UCNs in quantized states when we considered a blurring of 6.9 μm. The blurring was well explained as a result of neutron refraction due to the large surface roughness on the upstream side of the Si substrate. By using a double-side-polished Si substrate, a resolution of less than 0.56 μm is expected to be achieved for UCNs.

    An interferometer design that cancels all displacement noises of its test masses and maintains a gravitational-wave (GW) signal by combining multiple detector signals is called a displacement noise-free interferometer (DFI). The idea has been considered previously for a laser interferometer. However, a limitation of a laser DFI is that its sensitive frequency band is too high for astrophysical GW sources, ∼105 Hz even for a kilometer-sized interferometer. To circumvent this limitation, in this paper, we propose a neutron DFI, in which neutrons are used instead of light. Since neutrons have velocities much lower than the speed of light, the sensitive frequency band of a neutron DFI can be lowered down to ∼10-1 Hz. Therefore, a neutron DFI can be utilized for detecting GWs that are inaccessible by an ordinary laser interferometer on the ground.

    The neutron lifetime is one of the important parameters for particle physics and astrophysics. There is a 4.6σ (9.5 s) discrepancy between the results of the two typical methods. To solve this discrepancy, a new neutron lifetime experiment with a different method is in progress at J-PARC, and this experiment published the first result in 2020 of 898 ± 10(stat.) + 15/−18(syst.) s. We have performed improvements to reduce systematic uncertainties towards 1 s accuracy. The methods to measure the amount of 3He injected and in the working gas have been upgraded, and a new model for the space charge effect in the Monte Carlo simulation has been implemented.

We are carrying out a new experimental method to measure the neutron lifetime using a pulsed neutron beam at J-PARC MLF BL05 to determine the cause of the discrepancy, whether overlooked systematic uncertainties or new physics. A review of our experiment including the first physics result with acquired data during 2014 - 2016 and the status using new neutron optics are presented here.

    The neutron energy-dependent angular distribution of γ rays from the Sn117(n,γ) reaction was measured with germanium detectors and a pulsed neutron beam. The angular distribution was clearly observed in γ-ray emissions with an energy of 9327 keV which corresponds to the transition from a neutron resonance of Sn117+n to the ground state of Sn118. The angular distribution causes an angular-dependent asymmetric resonance shape. An asymmetry ALH was defined as (NL-NH)/(NL+NH), where NL and NH are integrated values for lower- and higher-energy regions of a neutron resonance, respectively. We found that the ALH has the angular dependence of (Acosθγ+B), where θγ is the γ-ray emission angle with respect to the incident neutron momentum, with A=0.394±0.073 and B=0.118±0.029 in the 1.33 eV p-wave resonance.

    Mini-EUSO is the first mission of the JEM-EUSO program located on the International Space Station. One of the main goals of the mission is to provide valuable scientific data in view of future large missions devoted to study Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) from space by exploiting the fluorescence emission generated by Extensive Air Showers (EAS) developing in the atmosphere. A space mission like Mini-EUSO experiences continuous changes in atmospheric conditions, including the cloud presence. The influence of clouds on space-based observation is, therefore, an important topic to investigate as it might alter the instantaneous exposure for EAS detection or deteriorate the quality of the EAS images with consequences on the reconstructed EAS parameters. For this purpose, JEM-EUSO is planning to have an IR camera and a lidar as part of its Atmospheric Monitoring System. At the same time, it would be extremely beneficial if the UV camera itself would be able to detect the presence of clouds, at least in some specific conditions. For this reason, we analyze a few case studies by comparing the pixel count rates from Mini-EUSO during orbits with the cloud cover (as cloud fraction). This quantity is retrieved from the Global Forecast System (GFS) model at different height levels over the Mini-EUSO trajectory. The results of this analysis are reported.

    Mini-EUSO is a small orbital telescope with a field of view of 44◦ × 44◦, observing the night-time Earth mostly in 320-420 nm band. Its time resolution spanning from microseconds (triggered) to milliseconds (untriggered) and more than 300 × 300 km of the ground covered, already allowed it to register thousands of meteors. Such detections make the telescope a suitable tool in the search for hypothetical heavy compact objects, which would leave trails of light in the atmosphere due to their high density and speed. The most prominent example are the nuclearites – hypothetical lumps of strange quark matter that could be stabler and denser than the nuclear matter. In this paper, we show potential limits on the flux of nuclearites after collecting 42 hours of observations data.

    Mini-EUSO is a telescope launched on board the International Space Station in 2019 and currently located in the Russian section of the station. Main scientific objectives of the mission are the search for nuclearites and Strange Quark Matter, the study of atmospheric phenomena such as Transient Luminous Events, meteors and meteoroids, the observation of sea bioluminescence and of artificial satellites and man-made space debris. It is also capable of observing Extensive Air Showers generated by Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays with an energy above 1021 eV and detect artificial showers generated with lasers from the ground. Mini-EUSO can map the night-time Earth in the UV range (290 - 430 nm), with a spatial resolution of about 6.3 km and a temporal resolution of 2.5 μs, observing our planet through a nadir-facing UV-transparent window in the Russian Zvezda module. The instrument, launched on 2019/08/22 from the Baikonur cosmodrome, is based on an optical system employing two Fresnel lenses and a focal surface composed of 36 Multi-Anode Photomultiplier tubes, 64 channels each, for a total of 2304 channels with single photon counting sensitivity and an overall field of view of 44◦. Mini-EUSO also contains two ancillary cameras to complement measurements in the near infrared and visible ranges. In this paper we describe the detector and present the various phenomena observed in the first year of operation.

    The Fluorescence Telescope is one of the two telescopes on board the Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon II (EUSO-SPB2). EUSO-SPB2 is an ultra-long-duration balloon mission that aims at the detection of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) via the fluorescence technique (using a Fluorescence Telescope) and of Ultra High Energy (UHE) neutrinos via Cherenkov emission (using a Cherenkov Telescope). The mission is planned to fly in 2023 and is a precursor of the Probe of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA). The Fluorescence Telescope is a second generation instrument preceded by the telescopes flown on the EUSO-Balloon and EUSO-SPB1 missions. It features Schmidt optics and has a 1-meter diameter aperture. The focal surface of the telescope is equipped with a 6912-pixel Multi Anode Photo Multipliers (MAPMT) camera covering a 37.4 x 11.4 degree Field of Regard. Such a big Field of Regard, together with a flight target duration of up to 100 days, would allow, for the first time from suborbital altitudes, detection of UHECR fluorescence tracks. This contribution will provide an overview of the instrument including the current status of the telescope development.

    EUSO-TA is a ground-based experiment, placed at Black Rock Mesa of the Telescope Array site as a part of the JEM-EUSO (Joint Experiment Missions for the Extreme Universe Space Observatory) program. The UV fluorescence imaging telescope with a field of view of about 10.6◦ x 10.6◦ consisting of 2304 pixels (36 Multi-Anode Photomultipliers, 64 pixels each) works with 2.5-microsecond time resolution. An experimental setup with two Fresnel lenses allows for measurements of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays in parallel with the TA experiment as well as the other sources like flashes of lightning, artificial signals from UV calibration lasers, meteors and stars. Stars increase counts on pixels while crossing the field of view as the point-like sources. In this work, we discuss the method for calibration of EUSO fluorescence detectors based on signals from stars registered by the EUSO-TA experiment during several campaigns. As the star position is known, the analysis of signals gives an opportunity to determine the pointing accuracy of the detector. This can be applied to space-borne or balloon-borne EUSO missions. We describe in details the method of the analysis which provides information about detector parameters like the shape of the point spread function and is the way to perform absolute calibration of EUSO cameras.

    Mini-EUSO is a mission of the JEM-EUSO program flying onboard the International Space Station since August 2019. Since the first data acquisition in October 2019, more than 35 sessions have been performed for a total of 52 hours of observations. The detector has been observing Earth at night-time in the UV range and detected a wide variety of transient sources all of which have been modeled through Monte Carlo simulations. Mini-EUSO is also capable of detecting meteors and potentially space debris and we performed simulations for such events to estimate their impact on future missions for cosmic ray science from space. We show here examples of the simulation work done in this framework to analyze the Mini-EUSO data. The expected response of Mini-EUSO with respect to ultra high energy cosmic ray showers has been studied. The efficiency curve of Mini-EUSO as a function of primary energy has been estimated and the energy threshold for Cosmic Rays has been placed to be above 1021 eV. We compared the morphology of several transient events detected during the mission with cosmic ray simulations and excluded that they can be due to cosmic ray showers. To validate the energy threshold of the detector, a system of ground based flashers is being used for end-to-end calibration purposes. We therefore implemented a parameterization of such flashers into the JEM-EUSO simulation framework and studied the response of the detector with respect to such sources.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon II (EUSO-SPB2) is a second generation stratospheric balloon instrument for the detection of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs, E > 1 EeV) via the fluorescence technique and of Very High Energy (VHE, E > 10 PeV) neutrinos via Cherenkov emission. EUSO-SPB2 is a pathfinder mission for instruments like the proposed Probe Of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA). The purpose of such a space-based observatory is to measure UHECRs and UHE neutrinos with high statistics and uniform exposure. EUSO-SPB2 is designed with two Schmidt telescopes, each optimized for their respective observational goals. The Fluorescence Telescope looks at the nadir to measure the fluorescence emission from UHECR-induced extensive air shower (EAS), while the Cherenkov Telescope is optimized for fast signals (∼10 ns) and points near the Earth's limb. This allows for the measurement of Cherenkov light from EAS caused by Earth skimming VHE neutrinos if pointed slightly below the limb or from UHECRs if observing slightly above. The expected launch date of EUSO-SPB2 is Spring 2023 from Wanaka, NZ with target duration of up to 100 days. Such a flight would provide thousands of VHECR Cherenkov signals in addition to tens of UHECR fluorescence tracks. Neither of these kinds of events have been observed from either orbital or suborbital altitudes before, making EUSO-SPB2 crucial to move forward towards a space-based instrument. It will also enhance the understanding of potential background signals for both detection techniques. This contribution will provide a short overview of the detector and the current status of the mission as well as its scientific goals.

    The field of UHECRs (Ultra-High energy cosmic Rays) and the understanding of particle acceleration in the cosmos, as a key ingredient to the behaviour of the most powerful sources in the universe, is of outmost importance for astroparticle physics as well as for fundamental physics and will improve our general understanding of the universe. The current main goals are to identify sources of UHECRs and their composition. For this, increased statistics is required. A space-based detector for UHECR research has the advantage of a very large exposure and a uniform coverage of the celestial sphere. The aim of the JEM-EUSO program [1] is to bring the study of UHECRs to space. The principle of observation is based on the detection of UV light emitted by isotropic fluorescence of atmospheric nitrogen excited by the Extensive Air Showers (EAS) in the Earth's atmosphere and forward-beamed Cherenkov radiation reflected from the Earth's surface or dense cloud tops. In addition to the prime objective of UHECR studies, JEM-EUSO will do several secondary studies due to the instruments' unique capacity of detecting very weak UV-signals with extreme time-resolution around 1 μs: meteors, Transient Luminous Events (TLE), bioluminescence, maps of human generated UV-light, searches for Strange Quark Matter (SQM) and high-energy neutrinos, and more. The JEM-EUSO program includes several missions from ground (EUSO-TA [2]), from stratospheric balloons (EUSO-Balloon [3], EUSO-SPB1 [4], EUSO-SPB2 [5]), and from space (TUS [6], Mini-EUSO [7]) employing fluorescence detectors to demonstrate the UHECR observation from space and prepare the large size missions K-EUSO [8] and POEMMA [9]. A review of the current status of the program, the key results obtained so far by the different projects, and the perspectives for the near future are presented.

    The second generation of the Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon (EUSO-SPB2) is a balloon instrument for the detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) with energies above 1 EeV and very high energy neutrinos with energies above 10 PeV. EUSOSPB2 consists of two telescopes: a fluorescence telescope pointed downward for the detection of UHECRs and a Cherenkov telescope pointed towards the limb for the detection of tau lepton-induced showers produced by up-going tau neutrinos and background signals below the limb. Clouds inside the field of view of these telescopes reduce EUSO-SPB2’s geometric aperture, in particular that of the fluorescence telescope. For this reason, cloud coverage and cloud-top altitude within the field of view of the fluorescence telescope must be monitored throughout data-taking. The University of Chicago Infrared Camera (UCIRC2) will monitor these clouds using two infrared cameras with response centered at wavelengths 10 and 12 microns. By capturing images at wavelengths spanning the cloud thermal emission peak, UCIRC2 will measure cloud color-temperatures and thus cloud-top altitudes. In this contribution, we provide an overview of UCIRC2, including an update on its construction and a discussion of the techniques used to calibrate the instrument.

    K-EUSO is a planned mission of the JEM-EUSO program for the study of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) from space, to be deployed on the International Space Station. The K-EUSO observatory consists of a UV telescope with a wide field of view, which aims at the detection of fluorescence light emitted by extensive air showers (EAS) in the atmosphere. The EAS events will be sampled with a time resolution of 1-2.5 μs to reconstruct the entire shower profile with high precision. The detector consisting of ∼ 105 independent pixels will allow a spatial resolution of ∼700 m on ground. From a 400 km altitude, K-EUSO will achieve a large and full sky exposure to sample the highest energy range of the UHECR spectrum. In this contribution, we present estimates of the performance of the observatory: an estimation of the expected exposure and triggered event rate as a function of energy and the event reconstruction performance, including resolution of arrival directions and energy of UHECRs.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory Super Pressure Balloon 2 (EUSO-SPB2) is under development, and will prototype instrumentation for future satellite-based missions, including the Probe of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA). EUSO-SPB2 will consist of two telescopes. The first is a Cherenkov telescope (CT) being developed to identify and estimate the background sources for future below-the-limb very high energy (E>10 PeV) astrophysical neutrino observations, as well as above-the-limb cosmic ray induced signals (E>1 PeV). The second is a fluorescence telescope (FT) being developed for detection of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs). In preparation for the expected launch in 2023, extensive simulations tuned by preliminary laboratory measurements have been performed to understand the FT capabilities. The energy threshold has been estimated at 1018.2 eV, and results in a maximum detection rate at 1018.6 eV when taking into account the shape of the UHECR spectrum. In addition, onboard software has been developed based on the simulations as well as experience with previous EUSO missions. This includes a level 1 trigger to be run on the computationally limited flight hardware, as well as a deep learning based prioritization algorithm in order to accommodate the balloon's telemetry budget. These techniques could also be used later for future, space-based missions.

    The TurLab facility is a laboratory, equipped with a 5 m diameter and 1 m depth rotating tank, located in the fourth basement level of the Physics Department of the University of Turin. In the past years, we have used the facility to perform experiments related to the observations of Extreme Energy Cosmic Rays (EECRs) from space using the fluorescence technique for JEM-EUSO missions with the main objective to test the response of the trigger logic. In the missions, the diffuse night brightness and artificial and natural light sources can vary significantly in time and space in the Field of View (FoV) of the telescope. Therefore, it is essential to verify the detector performance and test the trigger logic under such an environment. By means of the tank rotation, a various terrestrial surface with the different optical characteristics such as ocean, land, forest, desert and clouds, as well as artificial and natural light sources such as city lights, lightnings and meteors passing by the detector FoV one after the other is reproduced. The fact that the tank located in a very dark place enables the tests under an optically controlled environment. Using the Mini-EUSO data taken since 2019 onboard the ISS, we will report on the comparison between TurLab and ISS measurements in view of future experiments at TurLab. Moreover, in the forthcoming months we will start testing the trigger logic of the EUSO-SPB2 mission. We report also on the plans and status for this purpose.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory - Super Pressure Balloon (EUSO-SPB2) mission will fly two custom telescopes that feature Schmidt optics to measure Čerenkov- and fluorescence-emission of extensive air-showers from cosmic rays at the PeV and EeV-scale, and search for τ-neutrinos. Both telescopes have 1-meter diameter apertures and UV/UV-visible sensitivity. The Čerenkov telescope uses a bifocal mirror segment alignment, to distinguish between a direct cosmic ray that hits the camera versus the Čerenkov light from outside the telescope. Telescope integration and laboratory calibration will be performed in Colorado. To estimate the point spread function and efficiency of the integrated telescopes, a test beam system that delivers a 1-meter diameter parallel beam of light is being fabricated. End-to-end tests of the fully integrated instruments will be carried out in a field campaign at dark sites in the Utah desert using cosmic rays, stars, and artificial light sources. Laser tracks have long been used to characterize the performance of fluorescence detectors in the field. For EUSO-SPB2 an improvement in the method that includes a correction for aerosol attenuation is anticipated by using a bi-dynamic Lidar configuration in which both the laser and the telescope are steerable. We plan to conduct these field tests in Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 to accommodate the scheduled launch of EUSO-SPB2 in 2023 from Wanaka, New Zealand.

    The TUS observatory was the first orbital detector aimed at the detection of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). It was launched on April 28, 2016, from the Vostochny cosmodrome in Russia and operated until December 2017. It collected ∼ 80, 000 events with a time resolution of 0.8 μs. A fundamental parameter to be determined for cosmic ray studies is the exposure of an experiment. This parameter is important to estimate the average expected event rate as a function of energy and to calculate the absolute flux in case of event detection. Here we present results of a study aimed to calculate the exposure that TUS accumulated during its mission. The role of clouds, detector dead time, artificial sources, storms, lightning discharges, airglow and moon phases is studied in detail. An exposure estimate with its geographical distribution is presented. We report on the applied technique and on the perspectives of this study in view of the future missions of the JEM-EUSO program.

    The JEM-EUSO (Joint Experiment Missions for Extreme Universe Space Observatory) program aims at the realization of the ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) observation using wide field of view fluorescence detectors in orbit. Ultra-violet (UV) light emission from the atmosphere such as airglow and anthropogenic light on the Earth’s surface are the main background for the space-based UHECR observations. The Mini-EUSO mission has been operated on the International Space Station (ISS) since 2019 which is the first space-based experiment for the program. The Mini-EUSO instrument consists of a 25 cm refractive optics and the photo-detector module with the 2304-pixel array of the multi-anode photomultiplier tubes. On the nadir-looking window of the ISS, the instrument is capable of continuously monitoring a ∼300 km × 300 km area. In the present work, we report the preliminary result of the measurement of the UV light in the nighttime Earth using the Mini-EUSO data downlinked to the ground. We mapped UV light distribution both locally and globally below the ISS obit. Simulations were also made to characterize the instrument response to diffuse background light. We discuss the impact of such light on space-based UHECR observations and the Mini-EUSO science objectives.

    Mini-EUSO is the first detector of the JEM-EUSO program deployed on the ISS. It is a wide field of view telescope currently operating from a nadir-facing UV-transparent window on the ISS. It is based on an array of MAPMTs working in photon counting mode with a 2.5 μs time resolution. Among the different scientific objectives it searches for light signals with time duration compatible to those expected from Extensive Air Showers (EAS) generated by EECRs interacting in the atmosphere. Although the energy threshold for cosmic ray showers is above E > 1021eV, due the constraints given by the size of the UV-transparent window, the dedicated trigger logic has been capable of the detection of other interesting classes of events, like elves and ground flashers. An overview of the general performance of the trigger system is provided, with a particular focus on the identification of classes of events responsible for the triggers.

    We present the status of the development of a Cherenkov telescope to be flown on a long-duration balloon flight, the Extreme Universe Space Observatory Super Pressure Balloon 2 (EUSO-SPB2). EUSO-SPB2 is an approved NASA balloon mission that is planned to fly in 2023 and is a precursor of the Probe of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA), a candidate for an Astrophysics probe-class mission. The purpose of the Cherenkov telescope on-board EUSOSPB2 is to classify known and unknown sources of backgrounds for future space-based neutrino detectors. Furthermore, we will use the Earth-skimming technique to search for Very-High-Energy (VHE) tau neutrinos below the limb (E > 10 PeV) and observe air showers from cosmic rays above the limb. The 0.785 m2 Cherenkov telescope is equipped with a 512-pixel SiPM camera covering a 12.8° x 6.4° (Horizontal × Vertical) field of view. The camera signals are digitized with a 100 MS/s readout system. In this paper, we discuss the status of the telescope development, the camera integration, and simulation studies of the camera response.

    Mini-EUSO is a detector observing the Earth in the ultraviolet band from the International Space Station through a nadir-facing window, transparent to the UV radiation, in the Russian Zvezda module. Mini-EUSO main detector consists in an optical system with two Fresnel lenses and a focal surface composed of an array of 36 Hamamatsu Multi-Anode Photo-Multiplier tubes, for a total of 2304 pixels, with single photon counting sensitivity. The telescope also contains two ancillary cameras, in the near infrared and visible ranges, to complement measurements in these bandwidths. The instrument has a field of view of 44◦, a spatial resolution of about 6.3 km on the Earth surface and of about 4.7 km on the ionosphere. The telescope detects UV emissions of cosmic, atmospheric and terrestrial origin on different time scales, from a few µs upwards. On the fastest timescale of 2.5 µs, Mini-EUSO is able to observe atmospheric phenomena as Transient Luminous Events and in particular the ELVES, which take place when an electromagnetic wave generated by intra-cloud lightning interacts with the ionosphere, ionizing it and producing apparently superluminal expanding rings of several 100 km and lasting ' 100 µs. These highly energetic fast events have been observed to be produced in conjunction also with Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes and therefore a detailed study of their characteristics (speed, radius, energy ...) is of crucial importance for the understanding of these phenomena. In this paper we present the observational capabilities of ELVE detection by Mini-EUSO and specifically the reconstruction and study of ELVE characteristics.

    The nuclear spin–lattice relaxation time (T1) of lanthanum and aluminum nuclei in a single crystal of lanthanum aluminate doped with neodymium ions is studied to estimate the feasibility of the dynamically polarized lanthanum target applicable to beam experiments. The application of our interest is the study of fundamental discrete symmetries in the spin optics of epithermal neutrons. This study requires a highly flexible choice of the applied magnetic field for neutron spin control and favors longer T1 under lower magnetic field and at higher temperature. The T1 of 139La and 27Al was measured under magnetic fields of 0.5–2.5 T and at temperatures of 0.1–1.5 K and found widely distributed up to 100 h. The result suggests that the T1 can be as long as T1∼ 1 h at 0.1 K with a magnetic field of 0.1 T, which partially fulfills the requirement of the neutron beam experiment. Possible improvements to achieve a longer T1 are discussed.

    Structure factors describe how incident radiation is scattered from materials such as silicon and germanium and characterize the physical interaction between the material and scattered particles. We used neutron Pendellösung interferometry to make precision measurements of the (220) and (400) neutron-silicon structure factors and achieved a factor-of-four improvement in the (111) structure factor uncertainty. These data provide measurements of the silicon Debye-Waller factor at room temperature and the mean square neutron charge radius 〈rn2 〉 ¼ -0:1101T0:0089 square femtometers. Combined with existing measurements of the Debye-Waller factor and charge radius, the measured structure factors also improve constraints on the strength of a Yukawa modification to gravity by an order of magnitude over the 20 picometer–to–10 nanometer length scale range.

    The violation of baryon number, is an essential ingredient for the preferential creation of matter over antimatter needed to account for the observed baryon asymmetry in the Universe. However, such a process has yet to be experimentally observed. The HIBEAM/NNBAR program is a proposed two-stage experiment at the European Spallation Source to search for baryon number violation. The program will include high-sensitivity searches for processes that violate baryon number by one or two units: free neutron-antineutron oscillation via mixing, neutron-antineutron oscillation via regeneration from a sterile neutron state , and neutron disappearance (n → n′); the effective process of neutron regeneration is also possible. The program can be used to discover and characterize mixing in the neutron, antineutron and sterile neutron sectors. The experiment addresses topical open questions such as the origins of baryogenesis and the nature of dark matter, and is sensitive to scales of new physics substantially in excess of those available at colliders. A goal of the program is to open a discovery window to neutron conversion probabilities (sensitivities) by up to three orders of magnitude compared with previous searches. The opportunity to make such a leap in sensitivity tests should not be squandered. The experiment pulls together a diverse international team of physicists from the particle (collider and low energy) and nuclear physics communities, while also including specialists in neutronics and magnetics.

    Neutron energy-dependent angular distributions were observed for individual γ rays from the 0.74 eV p-wave resonance of La139+n to several lower excited states of La140. The γ-ray signals were analyzed in a two-dimensional histogram of the γ-ray energy, measured with distributed germanium detectors, and neutron energy, determined with the time-of-flight of pulsed neutrons, to identify the neutron energy dependence of the angular distribution for each individual γ rays. The angular distribution was also found for a photopeak accompanied with a faint p-wave resonance component. Our results can be interpreted as interference between s- and p-wave amplitudes, which may be used to study discrete symmetries of fundamental interactions.

    A neutron lifetime measurement conducted at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) is counting the number of electrons from neutron decays with a time projection chamber (TPC). The γ rays produced in the TPC cause irreducible background events. To achieve the precise measurement, the inner walls of the TPC consist of 6Li-enriched lithium-fluoride (6LiF) tiles to suppress the amount of γ rays. In order to estimate the amount of γ rays from the 6LiF tile, prompt gamma ray analysis (PGA) measurements were performed using germanium detectors. We reconstructed the measured γ-ray energy spectrum using a Monte Carlo simulation with the stripping method. Comparing the measured spectrum with a simulated one, the number of γ rays emitted from the6LiF tile was (2.3+0.7-0.3) × 10-4 per incident neutron. This is 1.4+0.5-0.2 times the value assumed for a mole fraction of the 6LiF tile. We concluded that the amount of γ rays produced from the 6LiF tile is not more twice the originally assumed value.

    A neutron detector using a fine-grained nuclear emulsion has a sub-micron spatial resolution and thus has potential to be applied as high-resolution neutron imaging. In this paper, we present two approaches to applying the emulsion detectors for neutron imaging. One is using a track analysis to derive the reaction points for high resolution. From an image obtained with a 9 µm pitch Gd grating with cold neutrons, periodic peak with a standard deviation of 1.3 µm was observed. The other is an approach without a track analysis for high-density irradiation. An internal structure of a crystal oscillator chip, with a scale of approximately 30 µm, was able to be observed after an image analysis.

    The neutron lifetime has been measured by comparing the decay rate with the reaction rate of 3He nuclei of a pulsed neutron beam from the spallation neutron source at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). The decay rate and the reaction rate were determined by simultaneously detecting electrons from the neutron decay and protons from the 3He(n,p)3H reaction using a gas chamber, the working gas of which contains diluted 3He. The measured neutron lifetime was 898 ± 10stat+15-18 sys s.

    We are developing a neutron polarizer with polarized 3He gas, referred to as a 3He spin filter, based on the Spin Exchange Optical Pumping (SEOP) for polarized neutron scattering experiments at Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) of Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). A 3He gas-filling station was constructed at J-PARC, and several 3He cells with long spin relaxation times have been fabricated using the gas-filling station. A laboratory has been prepared in the MLF beam hall for polarizing 3He cells, and compact pumping systems with laser powers of 30 W and 110 W, which can be installed onto a neutron beamline, have been developed. A 3He polarization of 85% was achieved at a neutron beamline by using the pumping system with the 110 W laser. Recently, the first user experiment utilizing the 3He spin filter was conducted, and there have been several more since then. The development and utilization of 3He spin filters at MLF of J-PARC are reported.

    We have submitted a secular variation (SV) candidate model for the thirteenth generation of International Geomagnetic Reference Field model (IGRF-13) using a data assimilation scheme and a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) dynamo simulation code. This is the first contribution to the IGRF community from research groups in Japan. A geomagnetic field model derived from magnetic observatory hourly means, and CHAMP and Swarm-A satellite data, has been used as input data to the assimilation scheme. We adopt an ensemble-based assimilation scheme, called four-dimensional ensemble-based variational method (4DEnVar), which linearizes outputs of MHD dynamo simulation with respect to the deviation from a dynamo state vector at an initial condition. The data vector for the assimilation consists of the poloidal scalar potential of the geomagnetic field at the core surface and flow velocity field slightly below the core surface. Dimensionless time of numerical geodynamo is adjusted to the actual time by comparison of secular variation time scales. For SV prediction, we first generate an ensemble of dynamo simulation results from a free dynamo run. We then assimilate the ensemble to the data with a 10-year assimilation window through iterations, and finally forecast future SV by the weighted sum of the future extension parts of the ensemble members. Hindcast of the method for the assimilation window from 2004.50 to 2014.25 confirms that the linear approximation holds for 10-year assimilation window with our iterative ensemble renewal method. We demonstrate that the forecast performance of our data assimilation and forecast scheme is comparable with that of IGRF-12 by comparing data misfits 4.5 years after the release epoch. For estimation of our IGRF-13SV candidate model, we set assimilation window from 2009.50 to 2019.50. We generate our final SV candidate model by linear fitting for the weighted sum of the ensemble MHD dynamo simulation members from 2019.50 to 2025.00. We derive errors of our SV candidate model by one standard deviation of SV histograms based on all the ensemble members.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

    The attenuation of seismic wave energy is caused by intrinsic absorption and scattering. The former involves the conversion of seismic wave energy to heat energy via internal friction due to the anelasticity of the medium, whereas the latter involves the scattering of seismic wave energy due to random elastic heterogeneities in the medium. Quantifying both intrinsic ((Formula presented.)) and scattering ((Formula presented.)) attenuation is therefore important for understanding the physical properties of the Earth's interior and predicting seismic wave propagation. Here we develop a new procedure to separately map three-dimensional (3-D) (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) structures. The path-averaged (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) values are obtained via an envelope-fitting approach that employs a multiple-scattering model. The path-averaged (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) structures are then mapped into 3-D space using a tomographic inversion technique based on sensitivity kernels, which are calculated from a Monte Carlo simulation of the radiative transfer equations. We apply this method to map the crustal structure beneath Kyushu, Japan, and obtain 3-D (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) structures for the 1–2, 2–4, and 4–8 Hz frequency bands. The spatial attenuation patterns are similar for each of the analyzed frequency bands, with the spatial variability in (Formula presented.) being more pronounced than that in (Formula presented.). The high- (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) regions correspond to the locations of active volcanoes. Conversely, the northern Kyushu area possesses low- (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) zones that correspond to low heat flow and Cretaceous granite, respectively. The overall (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) distributions correlate with thermal and geological structures, respectively.

    We present the neutron elastic scattering amplitude for an arbitrarily polarized target in an irreducible spherical-tensor representation. The general approach for the description of neutron spin dynamics for propagation through the medium with an arbitrary polarization is discussed in relation to the search for a time-reversal invariance violation in neutron scattering.

    An sp-mixing model, which describes a compound nuclear reaction by mixing partial waves, predicts a correlation term in this reaction. A detailed study of the sp-mixing model is required to study the feasibility of a new type of time reversal symmetry violation search experiment. The correlation term σn·(kn×kγ) in the La139(n - ,γ) reaction has been studied by measuring γ-ray and neutron energies utilizing epithermal polarized neutrons and germanium detectors. The transverse asymmetry for single γ-ray transition was measured to be 0.60±0.19 in the p-wave resonance.

    For the purpose of future visualization of the flow field in superfluid helium-4, clusters of the triplet state excimer 4He2* are generated along the micro-scale recoil tracks of the neutron-absorption reaction n + 3He → 3T + p. This reaction is induced by neutron irradiation of the 3He fraction contained in natural isotopic abundance liquid helium with neutron beams either from the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex, Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (JPARC)/Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility or from the Kyoto University Institute for Integrated Radiation and Nuclear Science. These 4He2* clusters are expected to be ideal tracers of the normal-fluid component in superfluid helium with several advantageous properties. Evidence of the excimer generation is inferred by detection of laser induced fluorescence emitted from the 4He2* clusters excited by a purpose-built short pulse gain-switched titanium:sapphire (Ti:sa) laser operating at a wavelength of 905 nm. The setup and performance characteristics of the laser system including the Ti:sa and two continuous wave re-pumping lasers are described. Detection at the fluorescence wavelength of 640 nm is performed by using optical bandpass filtered photomultiplier tubes (PMT). Electrical noise in the PMT acquisition traces could successfully be suppressed by post-processing with a simple algorithm. Despite other laser-related backgrounds, the excimer was clearly identified by its fluorescence decay characteristics. Production of the excimer was found to be proportional to the neutron flux, adjusted via insertion of different collimators into the neutron beam. These observations suggest that the apparatus we constructed does function in the expected manner and, therefore, has the potential for groundbreaking turbulence research with superfluid helium.

    Precision measurements of slow neutron cross sections with atoms have several scientific applications. In particular, the n-He4 s-wave scattering length is important to know both for helping to constrain the nuclear three-body interaction and for the proper interpretation of several ongoing slow neutron experiments searching for other types of neutron-atom interactions. We present new measurements of the ratios of the neutron differential scattering cross sections of the noble gases He, Ar, Kr, and Xe to Ne. All gases used were of natural isotopic abundance. These measurements were performed using a recently developed neutron-scattering apparatus for gas samples located on a pulsed slow neutron beamline which was designed to search for possible exotic neutron-atom interactions and employs both neutron time of flight information and a position-sensitive neutron detector for scattering event reconstruction. We found agreement with the literature values of scattering cross sections inferred from Ar/Ne, Kr/Ne, and Xe/Ne differential cross-section ratios over the q range of 1-7 nm-1. However, for the case of He/Ne we find that the cross section inferred differs by 11.3% (7.6σ) from previously reported values inferred from neutron phase-shift measurements, but is in reasonable agreement with values from other measurements. The very large discrepancy in the He/Ne ratio calls for a new precision measurement of the n-He4 scattering length using neutron interferometry.

    In a neutron lifetime measurement at the Japan Proton Accelerator Complex, the neutron lifetime is calculated from the neutron decay rate and the incident neutron flux. The flux is obtained by counting the protons emitted from the neutron absorption reaction of 3He gas, which is diluted in a mixture of working gas in a detector. Hence, it is crucial to determine the amount of 3He in the mixture. In order to improve the accuracy of the number density of the 3He nuclei, we have suggested using the 14N(n, p)14C reaction as a reference because this reaction involves similar kinetic energy to the 3He(n,p)3 H reaction and a smaller reaction cross section to introduce reasonable large partial pressure. The uncertainty of the recommended value of the cross section, however, is not satisfied with our requirement. In this paper we report the most accurate experimental value of the cross section of the 14N(n,p)14C reaction at a neutron velocity of 2200 m s-1, measured relative to the 3He(n,p)3H reaction. The result was 1.868 \pm 0.003 (stat.) ± 0.006 (sys.) b. Additionally, the cross section of the 17O(n,α)14C reaction at the neutron velocity is also redetermined as 249 ± 6 mb.

    The JEM-EUSO (Joint Experiment Missions for the Extreme Universe Space Observatory) program aims at developing Ultra-Violet (UV) fluorescence telescopes for efficient detections of Extensive Air Showers (EASs) induced by Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) from satellite orbit. In order to demonstrate key technologies for JEM-EUSO, we constructed the EUSO-Balloon instrument that consists of a ∼1 m 2 refractive telescope with two Fresnel lenses and an array of multi-anode photo-multiplier tubes at the focus. Distinguishing it from the former balloon-borne experiments, EUSO-Balloon has the capabilities of single photon counting with a gate time of 2.3 µs and of imaging with a total of 2304 pixels. As a pathfinder mission, the instrument was launched for an 8 h stratospheric flight on a moonless night in August 2014 over Timmins, Canada. In this work, we analyze the count rates over ∼2.5 h intervals. The measurements are of diffuse light, e.g. of airglow emission, back-scattered from the Earth's atmosphere as well as artificial light sources. Count rates from such diffuse light are a background for EAS detections in future missions and relevant factor for the analysis of EAS events. We also obtain the geographical distribution of the count rates over a ∼780 km 2 area along the balloon trajectory. In developed areas, light sources such as the airport, mines, and factories are clearly identified. This demonstrates the correct location of signals that will be required for the EAS analysis in future missions. Although a precise determination of count rates is relevant for the existing instruments, the absolute intensity of diffuse light is deduced for the limited conditions by assuming spectra models and considering simulations of the instrument response. Based on the study of diffuse light by EUSO-Balloon, we also discuss the implications for coming pathfinders and future space-based UHECR observation missions.

    For flow visualization study of quantum turbulence in superfluid 4He, He2∗ excimers are unique tracers which follow only normal-fluid component flow above 1 K. To generate detectable small He2∗ clouds (clusters) required for full-space velocity field measurements, we have adopted a new method based on neutron absorption reaction of 3He impurities in 4He and conducted proof-of-principle experiments. Generation of the He2∗ excimers was detected by laser-induced fluorescence using photomultiplier tubes. The fluorescence was observed to increase proportionally to the neutron flux, suggesting that a sufficient amount of He2∗ excimers were generated by neutrons. We also estimated the number of He2∗ excimers possibly generated by γ-rays and found that the relevant contribution was less than 40%. Thus, the majority of the He2∗ excimers was confirmed to be generated via n-3He absorption reactions.

    We installed a source for ultracold neutrons at a new, dedicated spallation target at TRIUMF. The source was originally developed in Japan and uses a superfluid-helium converter cooled to 0.9K. During an extensive test campaign in November 2017, we extracted up to 325000 ultracold neutrons after a one-minute irradiation of the target, over three times more than previously achieved with this source. The corresponding ultracold-neutron density in the whole production and guide volume is 5.3cm-3. The storage lifetime of ultracold neutrons in the source was initially 37 s and dropped to 24 s during the 18 days of operation. During continuous irradiation of the spallation target, we were able to detect a sustained ultracold-neutron rate of up to 1500s-1. Simulations of UCN production, UCN transport, temperature-dependent UCN yield, and temperature-dependent storage lifetime show excellent agreement with the experimental data and confirm that the ultracold-neutron-upscattering rate in superfluid helium is proportional to T7.

Therefore the description of [Formula presented] should be replaced to [Formula presented] for all in the statement and figures. In connection with this, the sentences from second line to fifth line in section 3 of 80 page should be renewed as follows. “Four diffraction peaks were observed for the [Formula presented], [Formula presented], [Formula presented], [Formula presented] planes. The diffraction peak of the [Formula presented] plane, which was in the Laue geometry condition, was analyzed for the demonstration of the Pendellösung fringes”. And Fig. 4 is replaced.

    Large sources of parity violation have been observed in compound nuclear reactions. These enhancements are described by the compound nuclear model, which can be used to describe the angular correlation of γ-rays produced in (n; γ) reactions in medium-heavy nuclei. It has also been suggested that these same reactions could lead to a similar enhancement in time reversal violating processes. Therefore, we are interested in verifying the compound nuclear model by studying the (n; γ) reaction using polarized neutrons. In this paper, we discuss the installation and characterization of a neutron polarizer used in the (n; γ) measurement with transversely polarized neutrons.

    The Nd3+ doped LaAlO3 crystal is a good candidate of a polarized 139La target for the search of the P-odd and T-odd interaction in the low-energy neutron absorption of 139La. As the first step for realizing the polarized 139La target, we grow the undoped LaAlO3 crystal and the La1−xNdxAlO3 (x = 5 ×10−4) crystal by floating-zone method with four halogen lamps. The ESR measurements of Nd3+ in the latter crystal indicated that the linewidth was about 6 gauss, whose value is the same as the crystal in which 50 % 139La polarization was achieved in the previous DNP experiment. As the result, the crystals grown by this method can be applicable to the target study for the T-violation search.

    The fundamental parity violation is enhanced by 106 times at maximum in several neutron induced compound nuclei. There is a theoretical prediction that fundamental T-violating effects can be also largely enhanced in compound nuclei implying that T-violation can be searched for by making very sensitive measurements. A T-violation search experiment using compound nuclei is planned at J-PARC. Polarized epithermal neutron beam, polarized nuclear target, and high count rate neutron detector are necessary for the experiment, and therefore a development of the neutron polarizer using polarized 3He is ongoing at J-PARC in JAEA. Recently, a clean vacuum system to fabricate 3He spin filters was constructed, and several 3He spin filters were fabricated. The current status of the development of the 3He spin filter was reported.

    A new type of cold/ultracold neutron detector that can realize a spatial resolution of less than 100 nm was developed using nuclear emulsion. The detector consists of a fine-grained nuclear emulsion coating and a 50-nm thick 10B 4C layer for the neutron conversion. The detector was exposed to cold and ultracold neutrons (UCNs) at the J-PARC. Detection efficiencies were measured as (0.163 ± 0.015 (stat) ± 0.013 (sys))% and (10.3 ± 1.3 (stat) ± 1.1 (sys))% for cold and ultracold neutrons consistently with the 10B content in the converter. Positions of individual neutrons can be determined by observing secondary particle tracks recorded in the nuclear emulsion. The spatial resolution of incident neutrons were found to be in the range of 11–99 nm in the angle region of tanθ≤ 1.9 , where θ is the angle between a recorded track and the normal direction of the converter layer. The achieved spatial resolution corresponds to the improvement of one or two orders of magnitude compared with conventional techniques and it is comparable with the wavelength of UCNs.

    Pendellösung interferometry is one of the technique for accurate determination of the structure factors of crystals. Observation method of Pendellösung fringes by using pulsed cold neutrons and the time-of-flight analysis were established. We measured the nuclear scattering length of silicon by the Pendellösung fringes with pulsed neutrons as (4.125±0.003(stat.)±0.028(syst.)). This indicates the applicability of Pendellösung interferometry at high-intensity pulsed neutron facilities for various precision measurements.

    Large enhanced P violation in a nuclear resonance reaction has been observed by using a polarized neutron beam. Enhanced CP violation is predicted to exist within the same nuclear reaction. We are now preparing to supply a polarized neutron beam for a CP violation search experiment. In the enhancement process of CP violation, we assume that the P violation of the compound nuclear state doesn't depend on the final state. However this assumption has not been verified yet. We plan to verify the assumption by measuring the 139La(n,g ) reaction with a polarized neutron beam at J-PARC MLF BL04. The supplied neutron beam will be polarized by using 3He spin filter, which will be installed into BL04. We present the states of development for 3He spin filter and study of the equipment in BL04.

    We are searching for an unknown force that could couple to mass using neutron scattering from a noble gas. The neutron is a chargeless massive particle with a long lifetime, which consequently is suitable for the precise measurement of a small interaction with a range of the order of 1nm by measurements of the momentum transfer distribution. We measured neutron scattering at the low-divergence beam branch on the BL05 NOP beamline in the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). We report recent experimental data.

    The Nagoya University Accelerator driven Neutron Source (NUANS) are now constructing at main campus of Nagoya University. The electrostatic accelerator is used with the maximum proton energy and power of 2.8MeV, 15mA(42kW) respectively. Two neutron beam lines are planned at NUANS. The first beam line is dedicated to BNCT. The second beam line is designed for research and development of neutron devices and neutron imaging. The neutrons used for the 2nd beam line are generated by using the (p, n) reaction of beryllium. We designed a compact target station for the 2nd beam line with the dimension of 90cm×90cm×95cm by using radiation shielding simulation. We considered neutron beam extraction with the cross section of 10cm×10cm for radiography at the 2nd beam line. The neutron flux is expected to be about 104n cm-2s-1 with the energy less than 0.1 eV at the position of 2m from the neutron source. We also calculated the proton beam transport from the exit of the accelerator to the neutron production target of the 2nd beam line.

    The MTV experiment (Mott Polarimetry for T-Violation Experiment) is running at TRIUMF, to search for a large T-violating transverse electron-polarization in polarized 8Li β-decay. We aim at reaching precision of 10−4 for the R-correlation, which is defined as a T-violating triple vector correlation in the β-decay rate function. A Mott polarimeter system using a CDC (Cylindrical Drift Chamber) is used to measure the left-right scattering asymmetry in the Mott scattering from a thin metal foil. In the present study, we aim to discuss systematic effects in Mott polarimetry using the CDC.

    The observation of neutrons turning into antineutrons would constitute a discovery of fundamental importance for particle physics and cosmology. Observing the n-n transition would show that baryon number (B) is violated by two units and that matter containing neutrons is unstable. It would provide a clue to how the matter in our universe might have evolved from the B = 0 early universe. If seen at rates observable in foreseeable nextgeneration experiments, it might well help us understand the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe. A demonstration of the violation of B-L by 2 units would have a profound impact on our understanding of phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Slow neutrons have kinetic energies of a few meV. By exploiting new slow neutron sources and optics technology developed for materials research, an optimized search for oscillations using free neutrons from a slow neutron moderator could improve existing limits on the free oscillation probability by at least three orders of magnitude. Such an experiment would deliver a slow neutron beam through a magnetically-shielded vacuum chamber to a thin annihilation target surrounded by a low-background antineutron annihilation detector. Antineutron annihilation in a target downstream of a free neutron beam is such a spectacular experimental signature that an essentially background-free search is possible. An authentic positive signal can be extinguished by a very small change in the ambient magnetic field in such an experiment. It is also possible to improve the sensitivity of neutron oscillation searches in nuclei using large underground detectors built mainly to search for proton decay and detect neutrinos. This paper summarizes the relevant theoretical developments, outlines some ideas to improve experimental searches for free neutron oscillations, and suggests avenues both for theoretical investigation and for future improvement in the experimental sensitivity.

    We have constructed a Doppler-shifter-type pulsed ultra-cold neutron (UCN) source at the Materials and Life Science Experiment Facility of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex. Very cold neutrons (VCNs) with 136 m s-1 velocity in a neutron beam supplied by a pulsed neutron source are decelerated by reflection on an m = 10 wide-band multilayer mirror, yielding pulsed UCNs. The mirror is fixed to the tip of a 2000 rpm rotating arm moving with 68 m s-1 velocity in the same direction as the VCNs. The repetition frequency of the pulsed UCNs is 8.33 Hz and the time width of the pulse at production is 4.4 ms. In order to increase the UCN flux, a supermirror guide, wide-band monochromatic mirrors, focus guides, and a UCN extraction guide have been newly installed or improved. The 1 MW-equivalent count rate of the output neutrons with longitudinal wavelengths longer than 58 nm is 1.6 × 102 cps, while that of the true UCNs is 80 cps. The spatial density at production is 1.4 UCN cm-3. This new UCN source enables us to research and develop apparatuses necessary for the investigation of the neutron electric dipole moment.

    The MTV (Mott Polarimetry for T-Violation) experiment is running at TRIUMF-ISAC (Isotope Separator and ACcelerator), searching for a large T violation in polarized 8Li β decay via measurements of the triple vector correlation, R, in the β decay rate function. The left/right backward scattering asymmetry of Mott scattering from a thin metal foil is measured using an electron tracking detector including a cylindrical drift chamber (CDC). To achieve 10-ppm precision in the Mott scattering asymmetry, we performed multiple studies on the expected systematic effects. The sources of the systematics have been identified and calibration systems have been developed to evaluate the fake effects. The first physics data was collected in 2016 and significantly improved on the result of our previous measurement, which achieved 100-ppm precision in 2010 using the first generation detector (planer drift chamber) at TRIUMF. The data measurement status, together with the results of the systematics studies, is described here. In addition to the T violation, we are preparing to test the Lorentz invariance in the weak sector via our Mott analyzer system. Unexplored Lorentz violating correlations can be tested using the MTV experimental setup. The testing principle and preparation status are also described here.

    Low energy neutron accelerator can be realized by the combination of an adiabatic fast passage spin flipper and a gradient magnetic field. Neutrons have magnetic moments, so that the accumulated potential energies are not canceled before and after passage of a magnetic field and their kinetic energies change in case their spins are flipped in the field. This accelerator handles lower kinetic energy neutrons than approximately 300 neV. Currently we have developed the advanced version which makes it possible to handle broader kinetic energy range. The design and measured characteristics are described.

    Large enhanced P-violations was discovered in several compound nuclei. A mechanism of P-violation can be applied to enhancement of T-violation in compound nucleus. We plan the experiment for sensitive T-violation search, however, the mechanism of P-violation(s-p mixing) has not been verified in detail yet and the spin factor K(J) has not been measured in candidate nuclei for T-violation search. We need to measure angular distributions in the (n, y) reaction for verification of s-p mixing and determination of K(J) as a feasibility study for the T-violation search. The (n,γ) reaction of 139La which is one of the candidate nuclei was measured with 4π germanium spectrometer in J-PARC/MLF/ANNRI. A neutron spectrum and a γ-ray spectrum for 139La was obtained.

    The neutron lifetime (τn) is one of the basic parameters in the weak interaction, and is used for predicting the light element abundance in the early universe. Our group developed a new setup to measure τn with the goal precision of 0.1% at the polarized beam branch BL05 of MLF, J-PARC. The commissioning data was acquired in 2014 and 2015, and the first set of data to evaluate τn in 2016, which is expected to yield a statistical uncertainty of O(1)%. This paper presents the current analysis results and the future plans to achieve our goal precision.

    We are searching for an unknown force that could couple to mass using neutron scattering from a noble gas. The neutron is a chargeless massive particle with a long lifetime, which consequently is suitable for the precision measurement of a small interaction with a range of the order of 1nm by measurements of the momentum transfer distribution. We measured neutron scattering at the low-divergence beam branch on the BL05 NOP beamline in the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). We measured 105 scattering events and report our most recent analysis.

    A new time projection chamber (TPC) was developed for neutron lifetime measurement using a pulsed cold neutron spallation source at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). Managing considerable background events from natural sources and the beam radioactivity is a challenging aspect of this measurement. To overcome this problem, the developed TPC has unprecedented features such as the use of polyether-ether-ketone plates in the support structure and internal surfaces covered with <sup>6</sup>Li-enriched tiles to absorb outlier neutrons. In this paper, the design and performance of the new TPC are reported in detail.

    Mounted on the International Space Station(ISS), the Extreme Universe Space Observatory, on-board the Japanese Experimental Module (JEM-EUSO), relies on the well established fluorescence technique to observe Extensive Air Showers (EAS) developing in the earth’s atmosphere. Focusing on the detection of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) in the decade of 1020eV, JEM-EUSO will face new challenges by applying this technique from space. The EUSO Simulation and Analysis Framework (ESAF) has been developed in this context to provide a full end-to-end simulation frame, and assess the overall performance of the detector. Within ESAF, angular reconstruction can be separated into two conceptually different steps. The first step is pattern recognition, or filtering, of the signal to separate it from the background. The second step is to perform different types of fitting in order to search for the relevant geometrical parameters that best describe the previously selected signal. In this paper, we discuss some of the techniques we have implemented in ESAF to perform the geometrical reconstruction of EAS seen by JEM-EUSO. We also conduct thorough tests to assess the performances of these techniques in conditions which are relevant to the scope of the JEM-EUSO mission. We conclude by showing the expected angular resolution in the energy range that JEM-EUSO is expected to observe.

    The JEM-EUSO telescope will be, after calibration, a very accurate instrument which yields the number of received photons from the number of measured photo-electrons. The project is in phase A (demonstration of the concept) including already operating prototype instruments, i.e. many parts of the instrument have been constructed and tested. Calibration is a crucial part of the instrument and its use. The focal surface (FS) of the JEM-EUSO telescope will consist of about 5000 photo-multiplier tubes (PMTs), which have to be well calibrated to reach the required accuracy in reconstructing the air-shower parameters. The optics system consists of 3 plastic Fresnel (double-sided) lenses of 2.5 m diameter. The aim of the calibration system is to measure the efficiencies (transmittances) of the optics and absolute efficiencies of the entire focal surface detector. The system consists of 3 main components: (i) Pre-flight calibration devices on ground, where the efficiency and gain of the PMTs will be measured absolutely and also the transmittance of the optics will be. (ii) On-board relative calibration system applying two methods: a) operating during the day when the JEM-EUSO lid will be closed with small light sources on board. b) operating during the night, together with data taking: the monitoring of the background rate over identical sites. (iii) Absolute in-flight calibration, again, applying two methods: a) measurement of the moon light, reflected on high altitude, high albedo clouds. b) measurements of calibrated flashes and tracks produced by the Global Light System (GLS). Some details of each calibration method will be described in this paper.

    The JEM-EUSO (Extreme Universe Space Observatory on-board the Japanese Experiment Module) mission will conduct extensive air shower (EAS) observations on the International Space Station (ISS). Following the ISS orbit, JEM-EUSO will experience continuous changes in the atmospheric conditions, including cloud presence. The influence of clouds on space-based observation is, therefore, an important topic to investigate from both EAS property and cloud climatology points of view. In the present work, the impact of clouds on the apparent profile of EAS is demonstrated through the simulation studies, taking into account the JEM-EUSO instrument and properties of the clouds. These results show a dependence on the cloud-top altitude and optical depth of the cloud. The analyses of satellite measurements on the cloud distribution indicate that more than 60 % of the cases allow for conventional EAS observation, and an additional ∼20 % with reduced quality. The combination of the relevant factors results in an effective trigger aperture of EAS observation ∼72 %, compared to the one in the clear atmosphere condition.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on board the Japanese Experiment Module of the International Space Station, JEM-EUSO, is being designed to search from space ultra-high energy cosmic rays. These are charged particles with energies from a few 1019 eV to beyond 1020 eV, at the very end of the known cosmic ray energy spectrum. JEM-EUSO will also search for extreme energy neutrinos, photons, and exotic particles, providing a unique opportunity to explore largely unknown phenomena in our Universe. The mission, principally based on a wide field of view (60 degrees) near-UV telescope with a diameter of ∼ 2.5 m, will monitor the earth’s atmosphere at night, pioneering the observation from space of the ultraviolet tracks (290-430 nm) associated with giant extensive air showers produced by ultra-high energy primaries propagating in the earth’s atmosphere. Observing from an orbital altitude of ∼ 400 km, the mission is expected to reach an instantaneous geometrical aperture of Ageo ≥ 2 × 105 km2 sr with an estimated duty cycle of ∼ 20 %. Such a geometrical aperture allows unprecedented exposures, significantly larger than can be obtained with ground-based experiments. In this paper we briefly review the history of space-based search for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. We then introduce the special issue of Experimental Astronomy devoted to the various aspects of such a challenging enterprise. We also summarise the activities of the on-going JEM-EUSO program.

    In this paper we describe the main characteristics of the JEM-EUSO instrument. The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM-EUSO) of the International Space Station (ISS) will observe Ultra High-Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) from space. It will detect UV-light of Extensive Air Showers (EAS) produced by UHECRs traversing the Earth’s atmosphere. For each event, the detector will determine the energy, arrival direction and the type of the primary particle. The advantage of a space-borne detector resides in the large field of view, using a target volume of about 1012 tons of atmosphere, far greater than what is achievable from ground. Another advantage is a nearly uniform sampling of the whole celestial sphere. The corresponding increase in statistics will help to clarify the origin and sources of UHECRs and characterize the environment traversed during their production and propagation. JEM-EUSO is a 1.1 ton refractor telescope using an optics of 2.5 m diameter Fresnel lenses to focus the UV-light from EAS on a focal surface composed of about 5,000 multi-anode photomultipliers, for a total of ≃3⋅105 channels. A multi-layer parallel architecture handles front-end acquisition, selecting and storing valid triggers. Each processing level filters the events with increasingly complex algorithms using FPGAs and DSPs to reject spurious events and reduce the data rate to a value compatible with downlink constraints.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM-EUSO) on board the International Space Station (ISS) is the first space-based mission worldwide in the field of Ultra High-Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR). For UHECR experiments, the atmosphere is not only the showering calorimeter for the primary cosmic rays, it is an essential part of the readout system, as well. Moreover, the atmosphere must be calibrated and has to be considered as input for the analysis of the fluorescence signals. Therefore, the JEM-EUSO Space Observatory is implementing an Atmospheric Monitoring System (AMS) that will include an IR-Camera and a LIDAR. The AMS Infrared Camera is an infrared, wide FoV, imaging system designed to provide the cloud coverage along the JEM-EUSO track and the cloud top height to properly achieve the UHECR reconstruction in cloudy conditions. In this paper, an updated preliminary design status, the results from the calibration tests of the first prototype, the simulation of the instrument, and preliminary cloud top height retrieval algorithms are presented.

    EUSO-Balloon is a pathfinder for JEM-EUSO, the Extreme Universe Space Observatory which is to be hosted on-board the International Space Station. As JEM-EUSO is designed to observe Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR)-induced Extensive Air Showers (EAS) by detecting their ultraviolet light tracks “from above”, EUSO-Balloon is a nadir-pointing UV telescope too. With its Fresnel Optics and Photo-Detector Module, the instrument monitors a 50 km2 ground surface area in a wavelength band of 290–430 nm, collecting series of images at a rate of 400,000 frames/sec. The objectives of the balloon demonstrator are threefold: a) perform a full end-to-end test of a JEM-EUSO prototype consisting of all the main subsystems of the space experiment, b) measure the effective terrestrial UV background, with a spatial and temporal resolution relevant for JEM-EUSO. c) detect tracks of ultraviolet light from near space for the first time. The latter is a milestone in the development of UHECR science, paving the way for any future space-based UHECR observatory. On August 25, 2014, EUSO-Balloon was launched from Timmins Stratospheric Balloon Base (Ontario, Canada) by the balloon division of the French Space Agency CNES. From a float altitude of 38 km, the instrument operated during the entire astronomical night, observing UV-light from a variety of ground-covers and from hundreds of simulated EASs, produced by flashers and a laser during a two-hour helicopter under-flight.

    The JEM-EUSO telescope will detect Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) from space, detecting the UV Fluorescence Light produced by Extensive Air Showers (EAS) induced by the interaction of the cosmic rays with the earth’s atmosphere. The capability to reconstruct the properties of the primary cosmic ray depends on the accurate measurement of the atmospheric conditions in the region of EAS development. The Atmospheric Monitoring (AM) system of JEM-EUSO will host a LIDAR, operating in the UV band, and an Infrared camera to monitor the cloud cover in the JEM-EUSO Field of View, in order to be sensitive to clouds with an optical depth τ ≥ 0.15 and to measure the cloud top altitude with an accuracy of 500 m and an altitude resolution of 500 m.

    Space-based detectors for the study of extreme energy cosmic rays (EECR) are being prepared as a promising new method for detecting highest energy cosmic rays. A pioneering space device – the “tracking ultraviolet set-up” (TUS) – is in the last stage of its construction and testing. The TUS detector will collect preliminary data on EECR in the conditions of a space environment, which will be extremely useful for planning the major JEM-EUSO detector operation.

    The main goal of the JEM-EUSO experiment is the study of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR, 1019−1021eV), but the method which will be used (detection of the secondary light emissions induced by cosmic rays in the atmosphere) allows to study other luminous phenomena. The UHECRs will be detected through the measurement of the emission in the range between 290 and 430 m, where some part of Transient Luminous Events (TLEs) emission also appears. This work discusses the possibility of using the JEM-EUSO Telescope to get new scientific results on TLEs. The high time resolution of this instrument allows to observe the evolution of TLEs with great precision just at the moment of their origin. The paper consists of four parts: review of the present knowledge on the TLE, presentation of the results of the simulations of the TLE images in the JEM-EUSO telescope, results of the Russian experiment Tatiana–2 and discussion of the possible progress achievable in this field with JEM-EUSO as well as possible cooperation with other space projects devoted to the study of TLE – TARANIS and ASIM. In atmospheric physics, the study of TLEs became one of the main physical subjects of interest after their discovery in 1989. In the years 1992 – 1994 detection was performed from satellite, aircraft and space shuttle and recently from the International Space Station. These events have short duration (milliseconds) and small scales (km to tens of km) and appear at altitudes 50 – 100 km. Their nature is still not clear and each new experimental data can be useful for a better understanding of these mysterious phenomena.

    Ultra high energy photons and neutrinos are carriers of very important astrophysical information. They may be produced at the sites of cosmic ray acceleration or during the propagation of the cosmic rays in the intergalactic medium. In contrast to charged cosmic rays, photon and neutrino arrival directions point to the production site because they are not deflected by the magnetic fields of the Galaxy or the intergalactic medium. In this work we study the characteristics of the longitudinal development of showers initiated by photons and neutrinos at the highest energies. These studies are relevant for development of techniques for neutrino and photon identification by the JEM-EUSO telescope. In particular, we study the possibility of observing the multi-peak structure of very deep horizontal neutrino showers with JEM-EUSO. We also discuss the possibility to determine the flavor content of the incident neutrino flux by taking advantage of the different characteristics of the longitudinal profiles generated by different type of neutrinos. This is of grate importance for the study of the fundamental properties of neutrinos at the highest energies. Regarding photons, we discuss the detectability of the cosmogenic component by JEM-EUSO and also estimate the expected upper limits on the photon fraction which can be obtained from the future JEM-EUSO data for the case in which there are no photons in the samples.

    We are conducting tests of optical and electronics components of JEMEUSO at the Telescope Array site in Utah with a ground-based “EUSO-TA” detector. The tests will include an engineering validation of the detector, cross-calibration of EUSO-TA with the TA fluorescence detector and observations of air shower events. Also, the proximity of the TA’s Electron Light Source will allow for convenient use of this calibration device. In this paper, we report initial results obtained with the EUSO-TA telescope.

    Designed as the first mission to explore the ultra-high energy universe from space, JEM-EUSO observes the Earth’s atmosphere at night to record the ultraviolet tracks generated by the extensive air showers. We present the expected geometrical aperture and annual exposure in the nadir and tilt modes for ultra-high energy cosmic rays observation as a function of the altitude of the International Space Station.

    The Extreme Universe Space Observatory (EUSO) on–board the Japanese Experimental Module (JEM) of the International Space Station aims at the detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays from space. The mission consists of a UV telescope which will detect the fluorescence light emitted by cosmic ray showers in the atmosphere. The mission, currently developed by a large international collaboration, is designed to be launched within this decade. In this article, we present the reconstruction of the energy of the observed events and we also address the Xmax reconstruction. After discussing the algorithms developed for the energy and Xmax reconstruction, we present several estimates of the energy resolution, as a function of the incident angle, and energy of the event. Similarly, estimates of the Xmax resolution for various conditions are presented.

    Meteor and fireball observations are key to the derivation of both the inventory and physical characterization of small solar system bodies orbiting in the vicinity of the Earth. For several decades, observation of these phenomena has only been possible via ground-based instruments. The proposed JEM-EUSO mission has the potential to become the first operational space-based platform to share this capability. In comparison to the observation of extremely energetic cosmic ray events, which is the primary objective of JEM-EUSO, meteor phenomena are very slow, since their typical speeds are of the order of a few tens of km/sec (whereas cosmic rays travel at light speed). The observing strategy developed to detect meteors may also be applied to the detection of nuclearites, which have higher velocities, a wider range of possible trajectories, but move well below the speed of light and can therefore be considered as slow events for JEM-EUSO. The possible detection of nuclearites greatly enhances the scientific rationale behind the JEM-EUSO mission.

    Low energy neutrons can be accelerated or decelerated by the technique of AFP-NMR with RF in a gradient magnetic fields. The neutrons have magnetic moments, hence their potential energy are not cancelled before and after passage of magnetic fields and their kinetic energy change finally when their spins are flipped in the fields. Nowadays most measurements of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) are carried out with ultra cold neutrons (UCN), whose kinetic energies are lower than about 300 neV, and with a small storage bottle to reduce the systematic errors. In such experiments highly dense UCNs are desired. The spallation neutron sources generate high-density neutrons at the target, however, the pulsed neutrons with spread velocities are diffused in guide tubes during long beam transport. It is necessary to concentrate UCN temporally upon the bottle by controlling their velocities for nEDM experiments at those facilities. We demonstrated such rebuncher and have been developed the advanced apparatus which makes it possible to handle broader energy range UCN. The design, measured specification of the new rebuncher is described in detail.

    Ultracold neutrons (UCNs) are neutrons whose kinetic energy is around a few hundred nanoelectronvolts. Neutrons with such small kinetic energy can be trapped in a material vessel or magnetic fields. Because of these unique characteristics, UCNs are used for some important experiments of fundamental physics. The Doppler shifter is a device to produce UCN by slowing them down by the reflection on a mirror moving with half of the velocity of incoming neutrons. A Doppler shifter using a quadruple-stack of monochromatic supermirrors that reflects neutrons with a velocity around 68m/s [1, Hino et al.(2010)] was fabricated, and operated with a pulsed neutron source of J-PARC. An important feature of the Doppler shifter is the use of a pulsed neutron beam. Unlike in continuous neutron beams, the neutron velocity can be selected by choosing a time slice in a pulsed neutron bunch. Thus the UCN production improves by ∼80 times in the case of J-PARC. We successfully produced the UCNs by the Doppler shifter: the measured UCN production rate is consistent with the simulations. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

    We developed a new neutron mirror made of Diamond-like carbon (DLC). DLC is a film of amorphous carbon that has characteristics of both diamond and graphite. We produced DLC mirrors by ionization deposition method which is one of the chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Generally, DLC made by CVD contents a few tens of percentages of hydrogen. It decreases the Fermi potential of the DLC coating because hydrogen has negative Fermi potential. In order to increase the Fermi potential of the coating, we deuterated the DLC by using deuterated benzene for the source gas. The characteristics of the deuterated DLC(DDLC) coating was evaluated by RBS, ERDA, x-ray reflectivity, AFM. As a result, DDLC coating has 243neV due to deuteration, which is the same level as Ni. The RMS of height of the DDLC was 0.6nm so that the DDLC coating can be applied for a focusing mirror or specular transportation of pulsed neutron. Besides, we also develop Hydrogen/Deuterium DLC multiple layer mirror. So far, 4 layers mirror has been succeeded. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Ultra cold neutrons (UCN), which have energies less than 300 neV, can be accelerated or decelerated by controlling static magnetic and RF fields. Neutron kinetic energies can inclease or declease when their spin flip. This method can be used to rebunch a pulsed beam of neutrons to a storage bottle that can store UCN with high density. High UCN densities can be achieved for precision measurements of neutron properties such as the Electric Dipole Moment. The results of a recent rst test experiments and present status of our development are reported.

    We evaluate the exposure during nadir observations with JEM-EUSO, the Extreme Universe Space Observatory, on-board the Japanese Experiment Module of the International Space Station. Designed as a mission to explore the extreme energy Universe from space, JEM-EUSO will monitor the Earth's nighttime atmosphere to record the ultraviolet light from tracks generated by extensive air showers initiated by ultra-high energy cosmic rays. In the present work, we discuss the particularities of space-based observation and we compute the annual exposure in nadir observation. The results are based on studies of the expected trigger aperture and observational duty cycle, as well as, on the investigations of the effects of clouds and different types of background light. We show that the annual exposure is about one order of magnitude higher than those of the presently operating ground-based observatories. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    A polarized 3He neutron spin filter requires a suitably homogeneous magnetic environment to avoid depolarization of 3He nuclear spin. In the present study, we discussed the required performance of the magnetic shield for an in-situ spin exchange optical pumping neutron spin filter system and designed a magnetic shield with T1mag > 100 h under a magnetic field of 3.5 mT perpendicular to the guide field. We then constructed the magnetic shield and confirmed its performance. Finally, we succeeded in developing a magnetic shield for a polarized 3He neutron spin filter system for J-PARC. © 2013 The Authors.

    Acceleration control for neutrons was demonstrated. Ultra cold neutrons (UCN) -neutrons with energies less than 300 neV - can be accelerated or decelerated by means ofstatic magnetic and RF fields. Neutrons have a magnetic dipole moment, and hence theirkinetic energies vary depending on their spin in magnetic fields. Their kinetic energiesare restored when they leave the magnetic field area if their spin did not flip. A spinflip can be triggered by applying an RF field whose frequency coincides with the spinprecession frequency of a neutron in this magnetic field. This allows to tune the kineticenergy of neutrons. This method can be used to rebunch a pulsed beam of neutrons to astorage bottle that can store UCN. By opening and closing the storage bottle synchronouslywith the rebuncher, high UCN densities can be achieved for precision measurements ofneutron properties such as the Electric Dipole Moment.

    Space-time focusing was demonstrated by a neutron accelerator. Test experiments were performed by using very slow neutrons at High-Flux Reactor at Institut Laue-Langevin. Focusing of neutrons at the detector position through the accelerator was observed. Focusing neutrons enables us to transport the neutrons while maintaining density from source to experimental position. This will be a powerful technique for measurement of the permanent electric dipole moment of neutrons, which require a high density of neutrons. © 2012 American Physical Society.

    Permanent magnet quadrupoles (PMQ) and sextupoles (PMSx) have been fabricated and tested. Their effective strengths are variable. The PMQ has been developed as a final focus magnet for a linear collider. There is enough space to put Gluckstern's 5-ring singlet structures in each incoming beam line. The magnetic center offsets and higher harmonic components can be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the magnet pieces with screws on holders. The measured integrated gradient can be reduced down to less than 1% of the maximum strength. The PMSx has been developed to focus pulsed cold neutrons for a small angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiment. The strength is modulated by a so called double ring structure, where the inner ring is fixed and the outer ring is rotated. A torque canceller can reduce the torque to rotate the outer ring by one third of its original magnitude. The focal length of the fabricated triplet lens is less than 50 cm for Very Cold Neutrons (VCN). It is demonstrated that VCN-SANS can shorten a SANS beamline, which usually has a few tens of meters, down to 2 ∼ 3 meters. © 2002-2011 IEEE.

    We have measured the optical thickness of a phase object for the first time using multilayer cold neutron interferometer. The measured phase shift of 15.1 ± 1.9 wavelength agreed with the expected value of 17.4 ± 0.7 wavelength due to an about 600-μm-thick silicon plate. This demonstration reconfirmed that two paths in our new interferometer were completely separate, and showed its applicability into various precise measurements.

    We have begun the development of an in-situ spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) system aiming to use it as a neutron spin filter for incident beam polarization at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). To use it, it is recommended that the optics be adjusted easily, have high stability, and have a small size. In this paper we improved our previous SEOP system aiming to use it in J-PARC and performed a neutron beam test at the JRR-3 NOP beamline to see the performance of the neutron spin filter (NSF). The polarization of the 3He gas reached 73%. This paper gives the present status of the development of in-situ SEOP system in J-PARC. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Polarized neutron spin filters are being developed based on spin-exchange optical pumping. In the present study a high-power diode laser (85 W) was used to excite Rb atoms and the laser linewidth was narrowed using an external cavity. The optics in the external cavity were designed by ray tracing. The ray-trace calculations demonstrated that a doublet lens in front of the laser eliminates aberrations. The maximum spectral peak height in the doublet optics was found to be 25% higher than for a singlet lens. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We have developed a prototype rotating-permanent magnet sextupole lens (named rot-PMSx) for more efficient experiments with neutron beams in time of flight (ToF) mode. This lens can modulate the focusing strength over range 1.5×104T/m2g′5.9×104T/ m2. Synchronization between the modulation and the beam pulse produces a focused beam without significant chromatic aberration. We anticipate that this lens could be utilized in focusing small angle neutron scattering (SANS) instruments for novel approach to high resolution SANS. We carried out experiments testing the principle of this lens at the very cold neutron (VCN) beamline (PF2) at Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), France. The focused beam image size at the detector was kept constant at the same beam size as the source (≈3mm) over a wavelength range of 30λ48 in focal length of ≈1.14m. The flux gain was about 12 relative to a beam without focusing, and the depth of focus was quite large. These results show the good performance of this lens and the system. Thereupon we have demonstrated the performance of this test bed for high resolution focusing of VCN-SANS for a well-studied softmatter sample; a deuterium oxide solution of Pluronic F127, an (PEO)100(PPO) 65(PEO)100 tri-block copolymer in deuterium oxide. The results of the focusing experiment and the focusing VCN-SANS are presented. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Filaggrin is a key protein that facilitates terminal differentiation of the epidermis and formation of the skin barrier. Mutations in the gene encoding filaggrin (FLG) have been identified as the cause of ichthyosis vulgaris (IV) and have been shown to be major predisposing factors for atopic dermatitis (AD). Approximately 40 loss-offunction FLG mutations have been identified in patients with ichthyosis vulgaris (IV) and/or atopic dermatitis (AD) in Europe and Asia. Major differences exist in the spectra of FLG mutations observed between different ancestral groups. Notably, prevalent FLG mutations are distinct between European and Asian populations. Many cohort studies on FLG mutations in AD have revealed that approximately 25-50% of AD patients harbour filaggrin mutations as a predisposing factor. In addition, FLG mutations are significantly associated with ADassociated asthma. The risk for developing allergic rhinitis is also significantly higher with a FLG mutation, both with and without accompanying AD. Recent studies have hypothesized that skin barrier defects caused by FLG mutations allows allergens to penetrate the epidermis and to interact with antigen-presenting cells, leading to the development of atopic disorders including asthma. The restoration of skin barrier function seems a feasible and promising strategy for prophylactic treatment of AD patients with FLG mutations. © 2011 Japanese Society of Allergology.

    A gradient DC magnet is designed using 3D magnetic field analysis code. This magnet, referred to as a B0 magnet, is one of the key elements of a time-focusing device for ultra-cold neutrons (UCNs) based on a radio frequency gradient flipper - a so-called rebuncher. The magnet generates a guide and a potential field that interacts with the magnetic moment of UCNs and its main body comprises a C-shaped yoke made from iron. A field gradient is generated by a pole arrangement that includes an anisotropic inter-pole, which causes the fringe field to be uniform in the longitudinal direction even when the pole gap distance changes. The designed magnet has the following properties: (1) a maximum B-field of 10 kGauss, decreasing to 2 kGauss at a longitudinal distance of 25 cm, with a gradient of less than 400 Gauss/cm, (2) variations in the fringe field along the y direction is less than 4% over a range of -3 cm≤ y ≤ 3 cm at any z position in the spin-flipping region. Tracking simulations show that the B0 magnet is capable of accepting UCNs in the velocity range 2.3∼3.3 m/s. © 2011 Published by Elsevier B.V.

    We are developing a high-resolution small angle neutron scattering (SANS) instrument utilizing pulsed white very cold neutrons (VCN) and modulating magnetic lens for focusing in time of flight (ToF) mode. The magnetic lens adopted new modulation method for focusing pulsed neutron beams over some wavelength range without chromatic aberration; the lens is composed of two concentric permanent magnet arrays in sextupole geometry and the rotation of outer array about fixed inner array provides sinusoidal field gradient modulation. We named this lens as rotating-Permanent Magnet Sextupole lens (rot-PMSx). We have fabricated the prototype of rot-PMSx with the bore diameter ø15 mm and the magnetic length 66 mm. The modulation range of magnetic field strength g inside the bore 1.5×104 T/m ≤ g ≤ 5.9×10 T/m2 and the repetition rate ≤ 25 Hz [1, 2]. We proved the focusing principle with it at PF2-VCN beam line in Institut Laue Langevin (ILL), France [3]. The focused beam image size was kept constant at the same beam size as the source (≈ 3 mm) over wavelength range of 30 Å ≤ λ ≤ 48 Å in focal length of ≈ 1.14 mm while the depth of focus was quite large. These results showed good performance of the rot-PMSx and we moved on to the demonstration of its performance as high-resolution VCN-f-SANS in this compact geometry of just 5 meters. We chose a tri-block copolymer poly(oxyeheylen-oxypropylene-oxyeheylen)(PEO100-PPO 65-PEO100) called Pluronic F127 as a sample, which has been well studied since 1990' [4]. The measureable q range of this system were 0.009 Å-1 ≤ q ≤ 0.3 Å-1 or 0.004 Å-1 q ≤ 0.08 Å-depending on the distances between the sample to detector 100 mm or 465 mm. The results of fitting these data to reasonable models were well consistent with one of same experiments carried out in the past. These results in two experiments are presented together.

    Cold neutron beams can be focused by a strong sextupole magnetic field. A permanent magnet sextupole lens whose focusing strength can be synchronously modulated at the rate of pulsed cold neutron beams is under development. This device should keep the focal point for pulsed neutron beams whose wavelength spreads as a function of time of flight. This kind of device improves the utilization of valuable neutrons and saves experiment time and costs. It will raise linac based small neutron sources as a good counter part to large powerful neutron facilities. Experimental results that were obtained at Institute Laue-Langevin (ILL) are also described.

In addition to a classical SANS pinhole collimation, the experiment used a polarizing supermirror as a monochromator and a magnetic sextupole lens to focus the neutron beam in order to gain intensity and avoid any material in the neutron beam besides the sample.

    A pulsed sextupole electromagnetic lens with suitably controlled time-dependent magnetic field can in principle focus pulsed neutrons at the same focal point over a wide range of wavelength as the lens removes aberrations. However, in fact, it is difficult to focus neutrons over a wide range of wavelength because attenuation of a practical pulsed sextupole electromagnet is faster than an ideal case. We have devised a method of canceling the difference between the practical pulsed sextupole magnetic field and the ideal magnetic field with the use of a permanent sextupole magnet. We performed simulation calculations to investigate the feasibility of this method, and it was shown that focusing wavelength range spread compared with the case using a pulsed magnetic lens only. This result indicates the usefulness of the method. © 2008.

    Three super strong permanent multipole magnets have been made: a fixed strength quadrupole, a variable quadrupole and a variable sextupole. The inner and outer diameters of the first 100 mm-length quadrupole are 14 mm and 100 mm, respectively. This fixed strength quad has an integrated gradient of 28.5 T; where the gradient at the center is more than 2.9 T/cm. The second, variable, quadrupole has an integrated strength of 38 T with 15 mm inner diameter and 230 mm length at the maximum: there are sixteen positions in its variable strength with about a 2 T even step width. The sextupole model is intended to change its strength at 25 Hz. One application of a variable quadrupole magnet is a final doublet quadrupole for an e+e- linear collider. Permanent magnet sextupoles are useful for focusing of cold neutrons, which are a very useful probe for material research. Strong octupoles for beam tail folding in the final focus beamline of a linear collider will also be possible with permanent magnets. These high order multipoles made from permanent magnets can achieve higher strengths, for a given bore radius, than superconducting ones. Design works are presented starting from brief review. © 2008 IEEE.

  296. Application of a neutron-polarizing device based on a quadrupole magnet to a focusing SANS instrument with a magnetic neutron lens

    A magnetic neutron lens based on a sextupole magnet is considered an ideal neutron-focusing device for focusing-geometry small-angle neutron scattering (FSANS) instruments using polarized neutrons. However, the magnetic neutron lens functions both as focusing and defocusing lens for positive and negative polarity neutrons, respectively. Negative polarity neutrons are defocused by the lens and spread over the detector of the instrument, resulting in an increase of the background level. Therefore, a neutron-polarizing device with a very high polarizing efficiency P ≳ 0.99 is required to be employed together with the magnetic neutron lens. A neutron-polarizing device based on a quadrupole magnet has a very high polarizing efficiency P ≳ 0.99, which is sufficient for the application to the FSANS instrument. In this study, we installed the quadrupole magnet in the FSANS instrument SANS-J-II and investigated its performance with respect to the conventional magnetic super-mirror polarizers of the FSANS instrument. © 2008 IOP Publishing Ltd.

    A Variable Permanent Magnet Sextupole (VPMS) lens that can focus pulsed slow neutrons is under development. It is based on the extended Halbach configuration to generate stronger magnetic field. In order to adjust the strength, the magnet is divided into two nested rings, where the inner ring is fixed and the outer ring can be rotated. This device will focus cold neutrons with wavelength of a few to several Angstroms at about 10 m focal length. We fabricated a half-scale model to measure the strength and the torque as functions of the rotor angle. Because the torque is measured as high as more than 30 N m, a mechanism to rotate the rotor is carefully designed. After installation of such a mechanism, a motor will drive the rotor and the temperature rise caused from eddy current loss will be measured. Detailed development of the system will be presented. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    A pulsed cold neutron beam for the study of neutron optics and fundamental physics (NOP) is under construction as the BL05 of the spallation neutron source of the J-PARC. The NOP beamline has three beam branches, which provide the highly-polarized beam, high intensity beam and low divergence beam for the neutron decay experiment, the neutron scattering experiment and the neutron interferometry experiment, respectively. We overview the physics to be studied at the NOP beamline at its beginning stage.

    A modulating permanent magnet sextupole lens that can focus pulsed cold neutrons is under development. The magnet is based on the extended Halbach configuration to generate stronger magnetic field. In order to adjust the strength, the magnet is divided into two co-axial nested rings, where the inner ring is fixed and the outer ring can be rotated. Synchronizing the period of the modulation with that of pulsed neutron beam suppress the chromatic aberration. We have fabricated a half scale model as a prototype and studied the strength, the temperature rise caused by eddy current. We have reduced the temperature rise about half of the former model by making the poles laminated structure. We are considering further improvement of the temperature rise and the system of rotating the outer ring with energy loss minimum. We are also measuring the very-cold neutrons focused by the half scale model.

    We have been developing terahertz (THz) wave detectors using superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs). The STJs consist of the Nb/Al/AlOx/Al/Nb structure. We fabricated THz-wave detectors on LiNbO3 substrates that have a high absorption coefficient for the frequency range of 1012 Hz. Two kinds of signals were detected when the THz-wave was irradiated from the substrate side. One was an indirect signal related to the generation of phonons. The other was a signal that corresponds to directly generated quasi-particles in the Nb electrode of the STJ. The pulse height of the indirect signal was larger than that of the latter signal. To enlarge the detector area, we designed a STJ that has different areas of the base electrode and top electrode. In this paper, the characteristics of the THz-wave detector area will be discussed. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    A normal-distribution-function-shaped superconducting tunnel junction (NDF-STJ) which consists of Nb/Al-AlO_x/Al/Nb has been fabricated as an X-ray detector. Current-voltage characteristics were measured at 0.4K using three kinds of STJs, which have the dispersion parameters σ of 0.25, 0.45 and 0.75. These STJs showed very low subgap leakage current of about 5nA. By irradiating with 5.9keV X-rays, we obtained the spectrum of these NDF-STJs. They showed good energy resolution with small magnetic fields of below 3mT, which is about one-tenth of those for conventional-shaped STJs.

We could clarify that 3-repeat tau was easily oxidized and formed aggregates by an intermolecular SS cross-linking.

    Refractive optics has relatively large effective apertures compared with reflective optics and they are suitable for two-dimensional beam focusing. There are two types of refractive optics, which are compound refractive optics and magnetic optics. Both of them are applied to extend the accessible q-range in small-angle scattering of cold neutron. We discuss possibilities to apply magnetic optics at pulsed neutron sources. We also discuss the possibility to obtain an extremely high neutron polarization using the spin-selectivity of magnetic optics. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We have performed various simulation calculations for a pulsed sextupole magnetic lens to look for the best condition of focusing experiments, assuming conditions of the pulse magnetic lens now under construction. Here, we placed a slit between the pulsed neutron moderator and the neutron lens, in order to see the focusing effect clearly. For the simulation, we used PHITS code to know influences of the position of the slit on the intensity of focused neutron beam, the focal point, and the broadening of the focal point. Increase of the distance of the slit from the source resulted in the decrease of the peak intensity of neutron beam at the focal point. Full-width at half-maximum of the neutron distribution along the incident beam direction around the focal point, broadened with increasing the distance, and the focal distance also became longer. The intensity ratios defined by (intensity with magnetic field)/(intensity without magnetic field) also increased with decreasing the distance. Therefore, it is better to set a slit near the moderator. © 2006.

    UCH-L1 is a neuro-specific multiple functional enzyme. To examine the relationship between PD and the configuration of UCH-L1 variants [wild-type, I93M (linked to familial PD), and SI8Y (linked to reduced risk of PD)], we examined their structures in dueterized water directly using small-angle neutron scattering. We demonstrate that these were all self-assembled dimers. The wild-type was a rotating ellipsoidal dimer although the crystal structure predicted from the UCH-L3 was globular. The globular form of the monomeric component deformed by the I93M mutation. Conversely, the SI8Y polymorphism promoted the globularity. The morphological structures of UCH-L1 variants and PD exhibit good pathological correlation.

    We performed a design study of sextupole magnet using high temperature superconducting (HTS) wires. The sextupole magnet is used as a focusing lens for neutron-focusing devices. A neutron-focusing device is desired to have a large aperture and a high magnetic field gradient of G, where G = 2B/r2, B is the magnetic field and r is a distance from the sextupole magnet axis. Superconducting magnets offer promising prospects to meet the demands of a neutron-focusing device. Recently NbTi coils of low temperature superconducting (LTS) have been developed for a sextupole magnet with a 46.8 mm aperture. The maximum magnetic field gradient G of this magnet is 9480 T/m2 at 4.2 K and 12,800 T/m2at 1.8 K. On the other hand, rapid progress on second generation HTS wire has been made in increasing the performance of critical current and in demonstrating a long length. The second generation HTS wire is referred to as coated conductor. It consists of tape-shaped base upon which a thin coating of superconductor, usually YBCO, is deposited or grown. This paper describes a design study of sextupole magnet using coated conductors. © 2006.

    In order to obtain a high-intensity neutron beam for neutron scattering experiments, strong sextupole magnets with large apertures are useful as a focusing element. We have started the development of a Nb3Sn sextupole magnet for this purpose. The design field strength of the sextupole is 12780 T/m2 and the aperture of the coil is 46 mm in diameter. As a first step of the development, three model coils have been made in order to learn about Nb3Sn technology and to evaluate the fabrication techniques. Single-pole tests of these coils have been performed to assess the conductor stability and training behavior of the Nb3Sn coils. This paper describes the design of the magnet, the fabrication of the model coils and the results of single-pole tests. © 2006 IEEE.

    We demonstrated terahertz imaging using a direct detector based on niobium superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs). The detector is composed of linearly distributed junctions placed on a superconducting microstrip line and is integrated on two wings of a log-periodic antenna. We succeeded nondestructive imaging for an integrated-circuit card and dry material using the detector around its sensitivity peak (∼0.66 THz). The dynamic range was measured to be higher than 4× 107 (76 dB). Thus, the STJ detector is applicable to high-sensitivity and high-speed terahertz imaging for various nondestructive inspection applications. © 2006 American Institute of Physics.

    We have proposed and demonstrated a new broadband terahertz (THz) wave detector using a superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) fabricated on LiNbO3, LiTaO3, and sapphire substrates. These substrates have relatively high absorption efficiency for THz waves, and we have expected that incident THz waves from substrate side are absorbed and that generate many THz phonons which break Cooper pairs in the base superconductor electrode of the STJ. Using a frequency-tunable THz pulse source in 1-2 THz, we have confirmed that the current signal corresponding to the THz input was observed. In addition, we found two current components with different timescales for the first time. We interpret that the slow component corresponds to phonons absorbed with the substrate and that the fast one corresponds to the directly absorbed photons with the superconductor electrode of the STJs. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

    Neutron reflectometry is a well-established technique used to analyze the structure of interfaces as a function of depth normal to the surface. On a continuous source of neutrons, such as a reactor, the measurement can be done at a fixed incident angle and a white beam with the neutron wavelength encoded by the use of choppers to measure the time of flight. Although providing a certain flexibility in wavelength resolution, choppers have low transmission. This paper explores the possibility of using refraction to encode neutron wavelength opening the possibility of reactor sources to use almost the full-time-averaged neutron flux available and hence, increase the performance of neutron reflectometers by orders of magnitude. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

    Here, we illustrated that the morphological structures of ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) variants and Parkinson's disease (PD) exhibit good pathological correlation by a small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). UCH-L1 is a neuro-specific multiple functional enzyme, deubiquitinating, ubiquityl ligase, and also involved in stabilization of mono-ubiquitin. To examine the relationship between multiple functions of UCH-L1 and the configuration of its variants [wild-type, I93M (linked to familial Parkinson's disease), and S18Y (linked to reduced risk of Parkinson's disease)], in this report, we proposed that these were all self-assembled dimers by an application of a rotating ellipsoidal model; the configurations of these dimers were quite different. The wild-type was a rotating ellipsoidal. The globular form of the monomeric component deformed by the I93M mutation. Conversely, the S18Y polymorphism promoted the globularity. Thus, the multiple functional balance is closely linked to the intermolecular interactions between the UCH-L1 monomer and the final dimeric configuration. © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    The small-angle neutron scattering instrument, SANS-U, owned by the Institute for Solid State Physics, The University of Tokyo, has been upgraded. The SANS-U is a 32 m SANS instrument installed in 1991 at the guide hall of the JRR-3M research reactor of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute, and has been serving for inter-university cooperative research use since 1993. The major upgrades include (i) replacement of the two-dimensional area detector by a multi-wire type position-sensitive proportional counter, (ii) renewal of the operating system from a VAX and sequencers to an integrated PXI system controlled by LabVIEW-RT software, (iii) a focusing collimation system, and (iv) a variety of accessory equipment. These upgrades provide a wide dynamic range of neutron counting, user-friendly operation and real-time circular averaging of two-dimensional data. © 2005 International Union of Crystallography - all rights reserved.

From the comparison of results obtained for the signals, the frequency response for the different size of STJs and the STJs fabricated on different substrate materials, we demonstrate that they correspond to photons absorbed with the superconductor electrode (refered as 'direct' component) and phonons generated by photons absorbed with the substrate (refered as 'phonon-mediated' component). © 2005 IEEE.

    Tauopacy is the abnormal aggregation of tau which is one of the microtubule-associated proteins often observed in Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease brain. Such an abnormal protein aggregation in cells causes cellular degeneration and death, and finally ends up with grave disorders. We synthesized human recombinant human tau and evaluated the structure in water by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). SANS showed tau (46Kda,consisting of 448a.a.) behaved in water as if it were originally and highly polymerized rod-like fibers although the SDS-page showed tau was refined to a single molecule. After we confirmed tau heated with reducing agent showed a single dispersion by DLS, we observed the structure by SANS equipped with 40 fresnel lenses at a lower concentration, C*. The radius of gyration of the tau cluster was estimated to be 272 Å from the Gunier analysis on the SANS profile in the lower q ranges. We clarified that normal tau proteins form a huge globule cluster in water by self-assembly, furthermore, they form a fibril by intermolecular cystine cross-linking under oxidative environment.

    In this study we present possibility of continuous measurements of lightning- associated transient luminous events (sprites, elves and blue jets) from the ISS altitude using the EUSO telescope. From global lightning data we estimated possible detection rates of lightning and TLEs. We also estimated photon numbers and optical spectra of TLEs in the near-ultraviolet region (300-400 nm) where the fluorescence emission caused by CRs exists. These results imply that EUSO has enough capabilities to monitor not only super-GZK CRs but also global lightning and TLEs. © World Scientific Publishing Company.

    We have developed a new terahertz (THz) wave detector using an Nb-based superconducting tunnel junction (STJ). The STJ consists of a Nb/Al/AlO x/Al/Nb structure on a single-crystal LiNbO3 substrate. Using LiNbO3 as a substrate, an irradiating THz wave is converted to phonons in LiNbO3, which has a relatively high absorption coefficient. The phonons propagating in the substrate reach the Nb base electrode of the STJ and break Cooper pairs. As a result, the THz wave can be detected as tunneling current signals in the STJ. THz waves from a widely tunable THz-wave parametric oscillator (TPO) were irradiated on to the STJ, which acted as a THz wave detector. The STJs were cooled to an operating temperature of 0.4 K using a 3He cryostat. We have observed STJ signals related to THz wave irradiations. In this paper, fabrication processes and characteristics of THz wave detectors using STJs are also discussed. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We have carried out detailed systematic studies of relaxation effects, which contribute to a significant improvement in proton polarization in a single crystal of naphthalene doped with pentacene. The experiments have been performed in a magnetic field of 3 kG at room temperature or at 77 K and with a pulsed dye laser or a pulsed N2 laser. We have found that a relaxation rate in the presence of irradiation with visible light (λ = 595 nm) is much smaller than that with ultraviolet light (λ = 337 nm) at room temperature, although the absorption rate of visible light is much larger than that of ultraviolet light. By cooling the crystal, the slow motion of the naphthalene molecules, which is a dominant relaxation process, can be suppressed. Surprisingly, we have found that the relaxation time at 77 K in the presence of the dye laser becomes long, but still depends on the laser power. Our investigation has also indicated that both the longer relaxation time and the irradiation with the dye laser lead to a great improvement in the polarization of protons in the bulk of a crystal from 0.5% at room temperature to 32% at 77 K. ©2005 The Physical Society of Japan.

The experiments have been performed in a magnetic field of 3 kG at room temperature or at 77 K. We obtained the polarization of 1.3% for protons in bulk at room temperature by using a pulsed dye-laser with the wavelength of 590 nm, the average power of 150 mW, and the repetition rate of 50 Hz. The polarization at 77 K reached 18% by irradiation with the dye-laser of 500 mW, 50 Hz and the same wavelength. The polarization of protons was measured by the neutron transmission method also. The result was consistent with that measured by the nuclear magnetic resonance. © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    We have proposed and been developing a new broad-band terahertz (THz) radiation detector using a Nb-based superconducting tunnel junction (STJ). The STJ's were fabricated on LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 mono-crystal substrates. We radiated monochromatic THz pulses in the range 1-2 THz with the pulse repetition rate of 49 Hz, and successfully detected the corresponding periodic signals via a charge-sensitive preamplifier. The current signal obtained by the derivative of the output signal gave the time response of about 15-20 microseconds. The frequency response was compared with that of a conventional pyro-electric sensor. We found their frequency response showed the similar shape in frequency, demonstrating the flat response of the STJ detector in 1-2 THz. These results show that the detector can be used as a broad-band THz and far-infrared radiation detector above the frequency corresponding to the energy gap of the superconductor used for the base electrode. © 2005 IEEE.

The polyimide insulation layer expects to be stable for thermal cycling between 0.3 K and room temperature.

    We have developed submillimeter-wave direct detectors employing niobium-based superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs), with broadband spectral response, high sensitivity and imaging capability. Spectral response peaked at 650 GHz with a fractional bandwidth of 14 percent, which fits one of the important atmospheric windows for an astronomical project. We also confirmed the linearity of the detector response in the dynamic range greater than 10 6. The measured coupling efficiency was about 0.2, which was lower than the expected value of 0.5. The measured noise current of the detector was 10 fA/√Hz, which agreed with the shot noise from the residual leakage current of 100 pA at 0.3 K. Resultant noise equivalent power (NEP) is 1.6 × 10-16 W/√Hz, that is less than the background photon fluctuation limit for ground-based submillimeter-wave observations. © 2005 IEEE.

    We have developed a phononmediated radiation detector using Nb-based superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs). The STJs are fabricated on a substrate as an absorber of the radiation, and a substantial amount of emergent phonons with an energy above the energy gap are detected. The performance of the detector depends on the collection efficiency of the phonons. A selection of an appropriate substrate is required for optimizing the detector performance. We fabricated Nb-based STJs on a Al2O3 and a LiNbO 3 substrates, and compared the pulse heights of substrate phonon events due to X-ray irradiation to the substrates. We found that the maximum pulse height of the phonon events for the LiNbO3 substrate was about twice of that for the Al2O3 substrate, so that these spectra which was obtained from two STJs showed different shapes, especially the peak due to phonon events. © 2005 IEEE.

    A system of a polarizing solid state bender and a collimator was built and tested. The bender consists of a stack of thin silicon wafers coated with polarizing FeCo-Si supermirrors. The stack is deflected in the middle by one wafer thickness. Inserted in an unpolarized neutron beam this device works as a spin splitter by transmitting the spin down component without any change in its flight path and reflecting the spin up component. With a collimator behind the bender it can be selected which one of the spin components is transmitted. In this way a transmission polarizer for neutrons with wavelengths above 4 Å was built which has a total length of less than 10 cm. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We are developing a fiber type two-dimentional (2-D) position-sensitive detector having a spatial resolution less than 0.5 mm in order to use it in the time-of-flight (TOF) measurements. The detector performance was examined, and some experiments on the TOF radiography were performed using this detector. The results indicated that the detector could be applied successfully to the TOF measurement and that the TOF radiography was very useful since it gave more informative data than those obtained by the conventional radiography using a broad energy band. © 2005 IEEE.

    The luminescence property of Ce-doped oxide glass having B and Li with large absorption coefficient for neutron was investigated by optical transmittance, alpha particle, and neutron irradiation. The light output of the B 2O 3-Li 2O:CeO 2 glass system increased with the increase in B 2O 3 and CeO 2. It was observed that the decay time which showed composition dependence varied in the range 30-45 ns. Although the light output by neutron irradiation is 9.2% of Li-glass, low density and high neutron absorption with short decay time make this new boron-based glass scintillator useful for neutron detection.

    With the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA), we published the small-scale anisotropy of cosmic rays with energies above 1019 eV. Among them, a broad cluster - BC1 around (20h 50m, 32°) - has interesting characteristics: The time distribution of members of the BC1 cluster is burst-like around MJD50000 , and this cluster locates near the famous supernova remnant: the Cygnus Loop. From this BC1 direction, two observations from the Tibet and Milagro experiments have been reported. In this report, we summarize the results from the whole observation time of AGASA and the Akeno 1km2 array experiment, and the relation with the observations from the Tibet and Milagro experiments is discussed.

    The focal surface of the EUSO telescope consists of a few hundred thousand of pixels of photo-detectors and detects air showers as mosaic images. The strongest requirement for the focal surface detector is the maximization of the photon detection efficiency together with the uniformity over the focal surface. We have developed a new type of multi-anode photomultiplier tube (MAPMT). The tatal photon detection efficiency has improved than before by about 2.1 times.

    The Focal Surface detector of EUSO (Extreme Universe Space Observatory) consists of small autonomous functional units (elementary cell, EC) assembled in larger modules (Photo Detector Modules, PDM). Each EC is conceived as an array of 4 multianode photomultipliers (MAPMTs). We have developed EC structure for the current baseline of the multianode photomultiplier (MAPMT, R8900-M36). As the mechanical characteristics of the PDM structure (e.g. robustness to thermal and launch shocks, vibrations at launch) will affect the EC structure, we have also built a trial PDM, consisting of 36 MAPMTs (9 ECs) arranged in a cartesian layout. The purpose of such trial PDM is to develop and optimize the EC structure.

    A neutron scintillation detector based on a position-sensitive photomultiplier has been developed for neutron spin echo and small angle neutron scattering measurements. This photomultiplier has good spatial resolution, less than 1 mm2. The detection efficiency of gamma ray background is very low for using a thin ZnS/6LiF scintillator. The effective area of this detector is around 60 cm2. © The Owner Societies 2005.

    The chemical composition of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs; > 1019 eV) is a key parameter to understand their nature and origin. In the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA) experiment, we measured the muon density at 1000 m from the cores for 159 UHECR events. The data were interpreted by the recent CORSIKA simulation (version 6.203) with QGSJET01 and SIBYLL2.1 interaction models. The data is consistent with light components for the QGSJET model. No positive signature has been found for the gamma ray dominance. In the presentation at the conference we will report detailed results and comparisons with the results from other experiments.

    EUSO-TA is a ground-based telescope, installed at the Telescope Array (TA) site in Black Rock Mesa, Utah, USA. This is the first detector to successfully use a Fresnel lens based optical system and multi-anode photomultipliers (64 channels per tube, 2304 channels encompassing a 10.6° × 10.6° field of view) for detection of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR). The telescope is located in front of one of the fluorescence detectors of the TA experiment. Since its installation in 2013, the detector has observed several ultra-high energy cosmic ray events and, in addition, meteors. The limiting magnitude of 5.5 on summed frames (∼ 3 ms) has been established. Measurements of the UV night sky emission in different conditions and moon phases and positions have been completed. The performed observations serve as a proof of concept for the future application of this detector technology.

    We present a search for possible spin dependent interactions of the neutron with matter through exchange of spin 1 bosons with axial vector couplings as envisioned in possible extensions of the Standard Model. This was sought using a slow neutron polarimeter that passed transversely polarized slow neutrons by unpolarized slabs of material arranged so that interactions would tilt the plane of polarization and develop a component along the neutron momentum. The result for the rotation angle, ϕ′=[2.8±4.6(stat.)±4.0(sys.)]×10−5 rad/m is consistent with zero. This result improves the upper bounds on the neutron-matter coupling gA2 by about three orders of magnitude for force ranges in the mm– μm regime.

    The magnetic moment of free fermions in the Earth's gravitational field has been studied on the basis of general relativity. Adopting the Schwarzschild metric for the background spacetime, the dipole coupling between the magnetic moment and the magnetic field has been found to be dependent on the gravity in the calculation up to the post-Newtonian order O(1/c2). The gravity dependence can be formulated by employing the effective value of the magnetic moment as a gravity-dependent quantity μ effm = (1 + 3φ/c2) μm for the cases of minimal coupling, non-minimal coupling, and a mixture of the two. The gravitationally induced anomaly is found to be canceled in the experimental values of the anomalous magnetic moment measured in the Penning trap and storage ring methods.

    The angular distribution of individual γ rays, emitted from a neutron-induced compound-nuclear state via radiative capture reaction of La139(n,γ) has been studied as a function of incident neutron energy in the epithermal region by using germanium detectors. An asymmetry ALH was defined as (NL-NH)/(NL+NH), where NL and NH are integrals of low- and high-energy region of a neutron resonance respectively, and we found that ALH has the angular dependence of (Acosθγ+B), where θγ is the emitted angle of γ rays, with A=-0.3881±0.0236 and B=-0.0747±0.0105 in 0.74 eV p-wave resonance. This angular distribution was analyzed within the framework of interference between s- and p-wave amplitudes in the entrance channel to the compound-nuclear state, and it is interpreted as the value of the partial p-wave neutron width corresponding to the total angular momentum of the incident neutron combined with the weak matrix element, in the context of the mechanism of enhanced parity-violating effects. Additionally, we use the result to quantify the possible enhancement of the breaking of time-reversal invariance in the vicinity of the p-wave resonance.

    We describe an experimental search for deviations from the inverse-square law of gravity at the nanometer length scale using neutron scattering from noble gases on a pulsed slow neutron beam line. By measuring the neutron momentum transfer (q) dependence of the differential cross section for xenon and helium and comparing to their well-known analytical forms, we place an upper bound on the strength of a new interaction as a function of interaction length λ which improves upon previous results in the region λ<0.1 nm, and remains competitive in the larger-λ region. A pseudoexperimental simulation is developed for this experiment and its role in the data analysis is described. We conclude with plans for improving sensitivity in the larger-λ region.

    In this study, the germanium detector assembly, installed at the Accurate Neutron-Nuclear Reaction measurement Instruments (ANNRI) in the Material and Life Science Facility (MLF) operated by the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), has been characterized for extension to the measurement of the angular distribution of individual γ-ray transitions from neutron-induced compound states. We have developed a Monte Carlo simulation code using the GEANT4 toolkit, which can reproduce the pulse-height spectra of γ-rays from radioactive sources and (n,γ) reactions. The simulation is applicable to the measurement of γ-rays in the energy region of 0.5-11.0 MeV.

    JEM-EUSO is a space mission designed to investigate Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays and Neutrinos (E>5⋅1019eV) from the International Space Station (ISS). Looking down from above its wide angle telescope is able to observe their air showers and collect such data from a very wide area. Highly specific trigger algorithms are needed to drastically reduce the data load in the presence of both atmospheric and human activity related background light, yet retain the rare cosmic ray events recorded in the telescope. We report the performance in offline testing of the first level trigger algorithm on data from JEM-EUSO prototypes and laboratory measurements observing different light sources: data taken during a high altitude balloon flight over Canada, laser pulses observed from the ground traversing the real atmosphere, and model landscapes reproducing realistic aspect ratios and light conditions as would be seen from the ISS itself. The first level trigger logic successfully kept the trigger rate within the permissible bounds when challenged with artificially produced as well as naturally encountered night sky background fluctuations and while retaining events with general air-shower characteristics.

    We summarize the state of the art of a program of UV observations from space of meteor phenomena, a secondary objective of the JEM-EUSO international collaboration. Our preliminary analysis indicates that JEM-EUSO, taking advantage of its large FOV and good sensitivity, should be able to detect meteors down to absolute magnitude close to 7. This means that JEM-EUSO should be able to record a statistically significant flux of meteors, including both sporadic ones, and events produced by different meteor streams. Being unaffected by adverse weather conditions, JEM-EUSO can also be a very important facility for the detection of bright meteors and fireballs, as these events can be detected even in conditions of very high sky background. In the case of bright events, moreover, exhibiting some persistence of the meteor train, preliminary simulations show that it should be possible to exploit the motion of the ISS itself and derive at least a rough 3D reconstruction of the meteor trajectory. Moreover, the observing strategy developed to detect meteors may also be applied to the detection of nuclearites, exotic particles whose existence has been suggested by some theoretical investigations. Nuclearites are expected to move at higher velocities than meteoroids, and to exhibit a wider range of possible trajectories, including particles moving upward after crossing the Earth. Some pilot studies, including the approved Mini-EUSO mission, a precursor of JEM-EUSO, are currently operational or in preparation. We are doing simulations to assess the performance of Mini-EUSO for meteor studies, while a few meteor events have been already detected using the ground-based facility EUSO-TA.

    The velocity of neutrons from a pulsed neutron source is well defined as a function of their arrival time. An electro-magnetic neutron accelerator/decelerator synchronized with the neutron timeof-flight is capable of selectively changing the neutron velocity and concentrating the velocity distribution. The possible enhancement of the neutron intensity at a specific neutron velocity by orders of magnitude is discussed, together with an experimental design.

    We developed a neutron detector with submicron spatial resolution by incorporating 6Li into a fine-grained nuclear emulsion. Upon exposure to thermal neutrons, tracks from neutron capture events were observed. The detector spatial resolution was estimated from their grain density. Detection efficiency was measured using the detector response to cold neutrons.

    We have developed a compact permanent-magnet sextupole lens for neutrons that can focus a pulsed beam with a wide wavelength range-the maximum wavelength being more than double the minimum-while sufficiently suppressing the effect of chromatic aberration. The bore diameter is ø15 mm. Three units of a double-ring sextupole with a length of 66mm are cascaded, resulting in a total length of 198 mm. The dynamic modulation range of the unit-averaged field gradient is 1.06 × 104-5.86 × 104 Tm-2. Permanent magnets and newly developed torquecanceling elements make the device compact, its production costs low, and its operation simpler than that of other magnetic lenses. The efficacy of this lens was verified using very cold neutrons. The diameter of the focused beam spots over the wavelength range of 27-55 Å was the same as that of the source aperture (2mm diameter) when the magnification of the optical arrangement was unity. The total beam flux over this wavelength range was enhanced by a factor of 43. The focusing distance from the source to the detector was 1.84m. In addition, in a demonstration of neutron image magnification, the image of a sample mask magnified by a factor of 4.1 was observed when the magnification of the optical arrangement was 5.0.

    Ultra-cold neutron (UCN) is attractive for a search of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM). It is crucial to store UCNs with high density in a bottle for nEDM measurement apparatus. To increase the density, time focusing technique can be useful, where slow neutrons are accelerated and fast neutrons are decelerated by using magnetic potential. This device is called rebuncher. The rebuncher consists of a gradient magnet, RF coil, and neutron guide. The magnet generates a field gradient of 3.5 T/m (from 1 T to 0.2 T within 24 cm) in the longitudinal direction. By using anisotropic inter-poles, the magnet is compact and keeps the gradient uniform. The fabricated magnet showed good performance as designed. © 2012 IEEE.

A crossing angle of 1.0 mu rad was introduced using an optical component consisting of a magnetic multilayer mirror, a wedge-shaped gap layer, and a nonmagnetic multilayer mirror. To restore the interference fringes, magnetic gradients of 0.64 G/cm were applied using two electro-quadrupole magnets. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We are developing a high-resolution small angle neutron scattering instrument for very cold neutrons (VCN). Our concept includes a magnetic lens for focusing of the beam at the detector plane. The lens consists of one permanent-magnet sextupole array rotating outside another stationary sextupole array, to focus a pulsed white beam of neutrons. Thus the instrument operates in time of flight mode. The prototype magnetic lens has a bore of 15 mm diameter and length of 66 mm, producing a magnetic field gradient oscillating from 1.5×104 to 5.9×104 T/m2, with frequency ≤25 Hz. A torque-canceling magnet around the lens suppresses the torque of rotation from the outer array to 1/3. We have demonstrated the performance of the lens, over wavelength range from 30 to 48 Å, on the PF2-VCN beam line at the Institut Laue-Langevin, France. The focused beam image was the same size as the source, without chromatic aberration, with focal length of 1.14 m. We also studied the performance of this configuration for high-resolution SANS, in a compact geometry (just 5 m long). The measurable q range of this system was 0.009 Å-1≤q≤0.3 Å-1 or 0.004 Å-1≤q≤0.08 Å-1 for sample to detector distances of 100 and 465 mm, respectively. Here, we present the results of our lens characterization study along with the SANS results on a tri-block copolymer (F127 Pluronic) and on a stretched polymer blend (with the Shish-Kebab structure). © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

    For the future fundamental physics experiments by using cold neutrons, we are developing a device which can measure the neutron polarization degree by accuracy significantly below 10-3. A quadrupole magnet is one of the promising candidate to measure the neutron polarization degree by such extremely high precision. We have performed a polarization experiment by using the quadrupole magnets at the Very Cold Neutron (VCN) port of the PF-2 in the Institute Laue-Langevin (ILL). As a result, we obtained the polarization degree P with very high accuracy P=0.9994±0.0001(stat.)±0.0003(syst.), which meet our requirement significantly. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We have developed a new multilayer cold-neutron interferometer using a pair of beam splitting etalons (BSEs) with an air gap of 189 μm in spacing. This is the first multilayer neutron interferometer that separates two paths from each other completely without an overlap. Clear interference fringes with a contrast of 67% have been observed using a monochromatic cold-neutron beam with a wavelength of 0.88 nm. © 2010 The Physical Society of Japan.

    Neutron reflectometry was applied for the characterization of machined roughness on iron surfaces, including a buried solid-solid contacting surface. The observed distribution of the reflected neutron beam could be explained using a structure factor estimated from the Fourier transform of the physical roughness measured by a contact-type roughness gauge, particularly in the case of a periodic surface structure. In the case of random roughness, the accumulation of beams specularly reflected from every small local region of the surface gave a better explanation of the broad distribution of the scattered beam, where each local region was assumed to be flat and differently inclined relative to the incident beam direction. When the surface was buried beneath another material, the width of the distribution of the reflected beam became slightly wider than that in air. Although neutron reflectometry for the characterization of surface roughness has various limitations, it is still an effective tool for nondestructively observing the surface roughness at a buried contacting surface. © 2009 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    We obtained highly polarized very cold neutrons through a quadrupole magnet with a large aperture. When neutrons go through a quadrupole magnet, parallel-spin neutrons are attracted to the magnet axis and anti-parallel-spin neutrons are repelled off the axis. Therefore, the neutrons through a sufficiently long quadrupole magnet have completely parallel-spin. At the downstream of the quadrupole magnet, we placed another quadrupole magnet to divide neutrons into two regions depending on their spin directions. We obtained the neutron polarization from the integrated count of the two regions and found it was 99.88±0.09 (stat.)±0.05 (syst.)%. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Modulating permanent magnet sextupole lens (PMSx) for focusing pulsed cold neutrons is under development. The synchronized modulation of its field gradient suppresses the chromatic aberration which arises from the Time Of Flight method. The strength of the magnetic field, the torque, and the rise of temperature during its operation are studied on a fabricated prototype. Experiments on focusing pulsed very cold neutrons (VCN) at ILL (Institute of Laue Langevin, France) were carried out and VCN with around λ=40 Å were focused by the PMSx at a focal length of about 0.5 m. The experimental results are presented in conjunction with the principle of the neutron focusing and the modulating method of the focal strength of permanent magnet lens with the double ring structure. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

    A new beamline for a fundamental physics experiment is under construction at BL05 port in the Materials and Life Science Facility (MLF) at Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC); this beamline is designed using novel techniques of neutron optics and it is termed "Neutron Optics and Physics." The beam from the moderator is deflected by multi-channel supermirrors and split into three branches for individual experiments. In this study, we have optimized the design of the beam optics and shields using the Monte Carlo simulation package PHITS. The neutron fluxes of beams are expected to be 9.2×105 /cm2/μstr/s/MW, 1.2×109 /cm2/s/MW, and 4.0×108 /cm2/s/MW, with polarization of 99.8%. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    As a magnetic neutron lens based on a sextupole magnet to focus neutrons has chromatic aberration, it has been proposed that the chromatic aberration can be compensated in the pulsed neutron beam focusing by combining the focusing and defocusing functions of the multiplet magnetic lens system synchronously with time-of-flight (TOF) of neutrons. In this study, we performed numerical simulations on the multiplet magnetic lens system to investigate how a pulsed neutron beam can be controlled on the basis of the TOF method. It was then confirmed that the chromatic aberration can be compensated and the focal condition can be maintained over a certain λ-range by utilizing plural magnetic lenses in series and choosing the focusing and defocusing function of each magnetic lens synchronously with TOF of neutrons. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.

    We have developed a pixel detector for ultra-cold neutrons using a commercial CCD. In order to detect neutrons, a thin neutron converting layer is directly formed on the CCD surface. The detection efficiencies for cold, very-cold and ultra-cold neutrons are measured to be 1.7%, 4.05 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.12% and 40.6 +/- 0.7 +/- 2.8%, respectively. The spatial resolutions were measured to be 2.9 +/- 0.1 mu m for horizontal direction and 4.4 +/- 0.2 mu m for vertical direction. The vertical and horizontal directions are determined by the charge transfer mechanism of CCDs. The details of the pixel detector and its performance tests are described.

    We performed a cold neutron polarization experiment using a polarization device based on a quadrupole magnet. By passing through the aperture of the quadrupole magnet, positive and negative polarity neutrons are accelerated in opposite directions and spatially separated due to the magnetic field gradient. Then, we extracted the one-spin component and analyzed the polarization degree by using a sextupole magnet and position-sensitive detector. As a result, very high neutron polarization degree P=0.9993±0.0025 was obtained. Advantages of the quadrupole magnet as the neutron polarization device and its application to neutron scattering experiments are discussed. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A model based on partial coherence theory has been developed and verified experimentally. These results will be the basis for neutron wave front manipulation technique using magnetic birefringence.

    Precise measurement of neutron beta decay tests predictions of the Standard Model of electroweak interaction. The co-efficient a of the antineutrino/electron angular correlation is determined by measuring the energy spectrum of the recoil protons generated in the neutron beta decay. A proton spectrometer required for this measurement demands high detection efficiency, high energy resolution and a large detection area. We have begun development of a Transition Edge Sensor (TES) microcalorimeter for use as a low energy particle detector. To realize the large detection area we have designed a pixelated TES array incorporating a parallel biasing scheme. Our TES device consists of 4-pixels using a Au/Ti/Au trilayer film adjusted to a superconducting transition temperature of Tc ∼ 380 mK. This temperature is convenient for use in a 3He cryostat with a pulse tube refrigerator. The Au films improve thermal conductivity, thereby reducing position dependent effects and allow an increased detector area. © 2007 IEEE.

    In order to extend an upper q-limit [q is the magnitude of the scattering vector q, defined by q = (4π/λ)sinθ, where λ and 2θ are the wavelength and the scattering angle, respectively], high-angle 3He sub-detectors were installed on a focusing and polarized neutron small-angle scattering spectrometer (SANS-J-II) at JRR-3, Tokai, Japan. Consequently, the upper q-limit was improved from 0.2 to 2.0 Å-1. To quantitatively discriminate spin incoherent scattering from hydrogen or to perform nuclear spin polarization contrast variation, a remanent supermirror analyser is also available on the high-angle sub-detector. By combining a focusing ultra-small-angle scattering, realised by compound and/or magnetic lens and high-resolution area detector, SANS-J-II is able to cover from 3 × 10-4 to 2.0 Å-1 (four orders of magnitude of q), which benefits investigation of hierarchically ordered systems, found widely in hard, soft and bio-materials. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.

    SANS-J (a pinhole small-angle neutron scattering spectrometer at research reactor JRR3, Tokai, Japan) was reconstructed as a focusing and polarized neutron small-angle scattering spectrometer (SANS-J-II). By employing focusing lenses of a biconcave MgF2 crystal or of a sextupole permanent magnet and a high-resolution photomultiplier, the minimum accessible magnitude of the scattering vector q min was improved from 3 × 10-3 Å-1 to an ultra-small-angle scattering (USAS) of 3 × 10-4 Å-1. Compared with a Bonse-Hart double-crystal method, the advantages of focusing USAS are the efficient detection of anisotropic USAS with an area detector, an improvement in q resolution Δq/q at conventional magnitudes of the scattering vector q ∼ 10 -3 Å-1 and a gain in neutron flux in the conventional q region of q ∼ 10-3 Å-1. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.

In this study, we investigated the performance of the FSANS instrument with the magnetic neutron lens. The intensity distribution of a direct neutron beam focused on the detector plane by the magnetic neutron lens had a ratio of the peak height to the background level of ∼6 × 104 for a polarized neutron beam with a polarization degree of ∼0.99. It is found that a minimum value of the measurable q range [where q is the modulus of the scattering vector and is defined as q = (4π/λ)sin(θ/2), where θ is the scattering angle and λ is the neutron wavelength], qmin, of 6.5 × 10-4 Å-1 can be achieved by the FSANS instrument with the magnetic neutron lens using neutrons with λ = 6.6 Å and Δλ/λ = 0.13 for the full width at half maximum. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.

    A normal-distribution-function-shaped superconducting tunnel junction (NDF-STJ) which consists of Nb/Al-AlOx/Al/Nb has been fabricated as an X-ray detector. Current - voltage characteristics were measured at 0.4 K using three kinds of STJs, which have the dispersion parameters σ of 0.25, 0.45 and 0.75. These STJs showed very low subgap leakage current of about 5 nA. By irradiating with 5.9 keV X-rays, we obtained the spectrum of these NDF-STJs. They showed good energy resolution with small magnetic fields of below 3 mT, which is about one-tenth of those for conventional-shaped STJs.

    Neutron refractive optics is a powerful tool for beam focusing due to its large effective aperture compared to reflective optics. Because neutron refraction angle decreases with shorter wavelengths, the application of refractive optics has been restricted to the cold neutron range. To expand the applicable wavelength range, we have developed a new refractive optics using an amorphous perfluoropolymer. This refractive optics is composed of several hundred thin sheets, each of which has a large number of grooves on the top surface. The refraction experiment was performed at the H-8 beam port of KENS, and it was confirmed that the thermal neutron beam can be refracted using this material prism. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

    Moiré fringes were observed as a bright and high-contrast image using a neutron spin interferometer with a relatively divergent cold neutron beam at the MINE2 beam line of JRR-3M. The two spin states were selectively deflected with the relative angle in the range of 92-184 nrad on transmission through the magnetic field gradient in the range of 3.2-6.4 G/cm produced by a 5 cm long quadrupole electromagnet. We analyzed the result with a first-order calculation taking into account the finite beam divergence and found that the beam divergence is required to be less than the angular separation of individual Moiré loci, for the observation of Moiré fringes, and is not required to be less than the angular separation of the two beam paths. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

    A neutron scintillating detector and its data taking system have been developed for neutron scattering measurement. A 64-channel flatpanel photomultiplier is used for the Anger-camera method. The detection efficiency of γ-ray background is very low in the use of the ZnS/6LiF scintillator. The spatial resolution is less than 1 mm. The effective area of this detector is around 25 cm2, and it is easy to expand it to a larger area with small dead space using the multi-photomultiplier tubes system. The fast DAQ system has 10-bit 100 MHz flash ADCs, FPGA chips and USB2.0 device. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We have developed a multichannel parabolic guide for thermal neutron beam focusing. The guide was designed with multichannel structure, seven channels in the present case, to focus a neutron beam with wide cross section effectively. The multichannel structure is made with parabolically bent NiC/Ti supermirrors with critical reflection angles m = 3.0 and 3.6 times as much as that of nickel and thickness of 0.55 mm. The guide consists of two focusing devices with each length of 900 mm, which are separated by a gap of 150 mm for neutron beta decay experiments. The focal length of the guide is 995 mm away from the exit of the guide. The cross section of the guide is 90 × 20 mm2 at the entrance and 52.3 × 12.1 mm2 at the exit. The guide was installed at a thermal neutron beam line for neutron-induced prompt gamma-ray analysis (PGA) of JRR-3M in JAEA with straight supermirror guides with m = 3.0. Focusing properties of the parabolic guide were measured at the focal point with a CCD imaging system and we obtained a gain of 9.6 and 4.1 in peak flux compared with those in cases of using the vacuum tube and the straight guide, respectively. The parabolic guide has been successfully used to enhance the efficacy of PGA and have also applied to neutron beta decay experiments. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The sextupole magnetic field distribution |B|=(G/2) r2 with the gradient coefficient G=10,660±530 T/m2 are generated inside the magnet, where r is the distance from the magnet center axis. The neutron-focusing property is investigated by using pulsed polarized neutrons. The obtained results are discussed in comparison with numerical simulation results. The application to the focusing-geometry small-angle neutron scattering experiments is discussed. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    By employing focusing lenses of sextupole permanent magnet and biconcave MgF2 crystal, and high-resolution photomultiplier, SANS-J (pinhole small-angle neutron scattering spectrometer at research reactor JRR3, Tokai) was reconstructed to focusing and polarized neutron ultra-small-angle scattering spectrometer (SANS-J-II). Consequently, an accessible minimum wave number qmin was improved from 3×10-3 Å-1 to 3×10-4 Å-1. Furthermore, we added 3He sub-detectors with an analyzer super mirror at a sample position. With this setup, we perform polarization analysis at high q (>0.2 Å-1) in order to quantitatively discriminate spin incoherent scattering from hydrogen or to perform spin contrast variation, by a dynamic nuclear polarization method (>0.2 Å-1). © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

    We designed, fabricated, and characterized a superconducting detector array for terahertz imaging applications. To evaluate the optical performance as an imaging array, we measured the spectral response of a 5-pixel linear array detector, and confirmed its sensitivity peaks to be at the same frequency within accuracy of one percent in the range of 0.65 THz. The frequency peaks are also in good agreement with a numerical calculation. This linear array was tested in the nondestructive imaging of a metallic pattern and an integrated-circuit card, and allowed the shortening of the total acquisition time. High fabrication yield of about 99% was achieved for single superconducting tunnel junctions, which led to 90% yield for the detectors. ©2006 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

From the comparison of results obtained for the signals, the frequency response for the different size of STJs and the STJs fabricated on different substrate materials, we demonstrate that they correspond to photons absorbed with the superconductor electrode (referred as 'direct' component) and phonons generated by photons absorbed with the substrate (referred as 'phononmediated' component). © 2006 IOP Publishing Ltd.

    We present a search for possible spin dependent interactions of the neutron with matter through exchange of spin 1 bosons with axial vector couplings as envisioned in possible extensions of the Standard Model. This was sought using a slow neutron polarimeter that passed transversely polarized slow neutrons by unpolarized slabs of material arranged so that interactions would tilt the plane of polarization and develop a component along the neutron momentum. The result for the rotation angle, ϕ′=[2.8±4.6(stat.)±4.0(sys.)]×10−5 rad/m is consistent with zero. This result improves the upper bounds on the neutron-matter coupling gA2 by about three orders of magnitude for force ranges in the mm– μm regime.

    The angular distribution of individual γ rays, emitted from a neutron-induced compound-nuclear state via radiative capture reaction of La139(n,γ) has been studied as a function of incident neutron energy in the epithermal region by using germanium detectors. An asymmetry ALH was defined as (NL-NH)/(NL+NH), where NL and NH are integrals of low- and high-energy region of a neutron resonance respectively, and we found that ALH has the angular dependence of (Acosθγ+B), where θγ is the emitted angle of γ rays, with A=-0.3881±0.0236 and B=-0.0747±0.0105 in 0.74 eV p-wave resonance. This angular distribution was analyzed within the framework of interference between s- and p-wave amplitudes in the entrance channel to the compound-nuclear state, and it is interpreted as the value of the partial p-wave neutron width corresponding to the total angular momentum of the incident neutron combined with the weak matrix element, in the context of the mechanism of enhanced parity-violating effects. Additionally, we use the result to quantify the possible enhancement of the breaking of time-reversal invariance in the vicinity of the p-wave resonance.

    © 2018 American Physical Society. We describe an experimental search for deviations from the inverse-square law of gravity at the nanometer length scale using neutron scattering from noble gases on a pulsed slow neutron beam line. By measuring the neutron momentum transfer (q) dependence of the differential cross section for xenon and helium and comparing to their well-known analytical forms, we place an upper bound on the strength of a new interaction as a function of interaction length λ which improves upon previous results in the region λ<0.1 nm, and remains competitive in the larger-λ region. A pseudoexperimental simulation is developed for this experiment and its role in the data analysis is described. We conclude with plans for improving sensitivity in the larger-λ region.

    EUSO-TA is a ground-based telescope, installed at the Telescope Array (TA) site in Black Rock Mesa, Utah, USA. This is the first detector to successfully use a Fresnel lens based optical system and multi-anode photomultipliers (64 channels per tube, 2304 channels encompassing a 10.6° × 10.6° field of view) for detection of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR). The telescope is located in front of one of the fluorescence detectors of the TA experiment. Since its installation in 2013, the detector has observed several ultra-high energy cosmic ray events and, in addition, meteors. The limiting magnitude of 5.5 on summed frames (∼ 3 ms) has been established. Measurements of the UV night sky emission in different conditions and moon phases and positions have been completed. The performed observations serve as a proof of concept for the future application of this detector technology.

    The velocity of neutrons from a pulsed neutron source is well defined as a function of their arrival time. An electro-magnetic neutron accelerator/decelerator synchronized with the neutron time-of-flight is capable of selectively changing the neutron velocity and concentrating the velocity distribution. The possible enhancement of the neutron intensity at a specific neutron velocity by orders of magnitude is discussed, together with an experimental design.

    Ultra-cold neutron (UCN) is attractive for a search of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM). It is crucial to store UCNs with high density in a bottle for nEDM measurement apparatus. To increase the density, time focusing technique can be useful, where slow neutrons are accelerated and fast neutrons are decelerated by using magnetic potential. This device is called rebuncher. The rebuncher consists of a gradient magnet, RF coil, and neutron guide. The magnet generates a field gradient of 3.5 T/m (from 1 T to 0.2 T within 24 cm) in the longitudinal direction. By using anisotropic inter-poles, the magnet is compact and keeps the gradient uniform. The fabricated magnet showed good performance as designed. © 2012 IEEE.

    低速中性子ビームは、高い物質透過力、軽元素識別能力、物質中の動的観察能力などの特性から、基礎物理、物質研究から産業利用までの広範な利用が拡大する一方である。中性子利用機会増加のために中小規模の中性子源の普及が取り組まれているが、その際、限られた中性子を高度に利用するための新技術が強く望まれる。本提案の輸送/使用方法を用いると、従来法に比べて組上精度や設置精度を引き下げることができ、安価で高効率な輸送が可能となる。また、磁気レンズを用いると高度位相空間操作が可能になり、さらなるビーム活用が可能になる。本研究は、『勾配磁場を用いた低速中性子の無損失輸送は有効か』を問いとして、これを実証、開拓する。

    低速中性子ビームの無損失輸送を、平面状に配置された永久磁石を用いて発生した非一様磁場中で中性子の双極子能率が受ける加速度を用いて実現できることを実証し、新たな中性子導管の実用化及び具体的な応用方法を明らかにする。これによって基礎物理、物質研究から産業利用にわたる広範な利用分野で拡大する中性子需要を賄うための新たな基盤技術として実用的利用を開拓する。本方法による中性子輸送は、従来法に比べて組上精度や設置精度を引き下げることができるため、安価で高効率輸送を可能とするものである。
    勾配磁場中で、永久磁石を平面状に配列することで表面近傍に集中した磁場勾配を構成し、当該面に対して斜入射する冷中性子ビームが、局所磁場に対する中性子スピン極性に応じて二通りの経路に分離することを検証した。この実験では原理実証を迅速に実行することに力点を置き、磁石配列規模は小規模に留めた。小規模に留めたことで、冷中性子ビームの完全分離には至っていないが、原理を確認するには十分な結果であった。この結果に基づいて、光学素子としての実用性を検討するとともに、より明確な中性子ビームの偏向を実測することを試みる。
    勾配磁場は極めて小さな空間的領域内で実現されるため、磁場プローブによる磁場分布を計測することは困難である。そこで、磁場設計との整合性を確認するために、実際に中性子ビームの偏向を観測することとした。平面状に配列した永久磁石で当該面近傍に集中した磁場勾配を構成し、当該面に対して斜入射する冷中性子ビームが、局所磁場に対する中性子スピン極性に応じて二通りの経路に分離することを検証した。計測に用いた中性子ビームは研究炉JRR3の冷中性子ビームであり、設計通りに中性子ビームが偏向を受け、二つの経路に分離することを確認した。
    平面状に配列した永久磁石を用いて発生させた勾配磁場を用いて、実際に冷中性子ビームを設計通りに偏向させることができたので、今後は、光学素子としての実用性を検討するとともに、より明確な中性子ビームの偏向を実測することを試みる。

    本研究ではミュー粒子にかかわる相互に関連した二つの精密測定研究を実施する。一つはこれまでの実績の発展として、2体束縛系であるミュオニウム(正ミュオンと電子の束縛系)の磁場下でのゼーマン副準位を高精度で測定することで、従来より一桁以上高い精度でミュオニウムの超微細構造および、ミュオンの磁気モーメントと質量を決定する。もう一つは、超低速ミュオンビームとペニングトラップの手法を組み合わせることにより、単一粒子ミュオンの測定を新たに開始し、ミュオンの磁気モーメントと質量をミュオニウムとは全く独立に、最高精度で決定する。これらの結果を総合し、素粒子標準理論を超えた新物理の探索を行う。
    本課題で測定を実施するJ-PARCミュオン施設の大強度ミュオンビームラインであるHラインにおいて2021年度から設置を進めていたコンポーネントの内、ミュオンと陽電子を分離するDCセパレタの制作が2022年度末に完了し、2023年夏季に設置をおこない2023年秋には運用を開始する予定である。
    一方、ミュオントラップの設計に関しては、2021年度までに行った概念設計にトラップの形状に関する新しい知見を反映させた後、実機の製作に取りかかった。
    また陽電子検出器に関しては、ジュネーブ大学とのSiGe検出器の共同開発体制を構築し、テスト実験の準備を進めている。
    基本ユニットが完成したイオン化レーザーは、より大強度化を目指してアンプ系の増強等を進めた。尚、3He NMR測定装置は引き続き開発を進めているが、初期実験は今までに確立しているH20プローブを使用して実施することとした。
    2023年度中にはこれらのシステムを統合して世界初のミュオントラップの実現を目指す。これにより、単一自由粒子としてのミュオンの運動を観測し、ミュオン粒子そのものの質量や磁気モーメントをこれまでにない高精度で決定可能となる。これは、超低速ミュオンビームを大量に生成可能な世界で唯一の施設であるJ-PARCでのみ観測可能な手法である。
    以上により得られた結果は、素粒子標準理論では説明が困難であったミュオン粒子とミュオニウムを含む物理現象を説明可能とする厳密で精緻な新物理の探索を行う上で大変重要である。
    高磁場下でのミュオニウム超微細構造の初期測定に関しては、ミュオンと陽電子を分離するDCセパレタの制作が完了し、2023年度中の運用を始めることが可能となった。ミュオントラップの設計に関しても実機製作に取りかかることができた。さらに、イオン化レーザーと3He NMR測定装置は引き続き増強と開発を進めることにより、当初の予定通り2023年度中にこれらのシステムを統合し、世界初のミュオントラップの実現を目指す見込みを立てることができた。
    J-PARCミュオン施設の大強度ミュオンビームラインであるHラインは、ミュオンと陽電子を分離するDCセパレタの制作が完成し、2023年度夏季に設置を行い、本格的な運用が開始される。これにより、2023年度は高精度な測定結果の取得を更に加速し、これまで培ってきた我々独自の解析手法を用いて、速やかに論文発表を目指す。
    一方、ミュオントラップについては2023年度中の完成を目指す。イオン化レーザーは大強度化を目指してアンプ系の増強等を行い、3Heプローブは引き続き開発を進め完成を目指す。これらのシステムを統合し、世界初のミュオントラップを実現し、高精度化につなげていく。

    J-PARCのパルス中性子源の稼働によってもたらされた熱外中性子の利用を実用的な水準に引き上げるために、熱外中性子の反射光学系を実用化することを目的として、平坦度が高く再現性の良い中性子ミラーの製作及び評価技術を研究する。
    さらに中性子反射臨界角の増大を目指して、核ポテンシャル散乱項と熱外領域特有の複合核共鳴項との量子力学的干渉項の利用の可能性を研究する。熱外中性子反射光学の実用化によって、熱外中性子を利用した物質科学や産業利用における新手法開拓や複合核状態を利用した素粒子物理学における新物理探索などの重要な可能性を開拓することを目指す。
    中性子の物質表面における全反射は、熱中性子や冷中性子あるいはそれよりも低速の中性子の光学的制御に用いられ、中性子利用効率の大幅な向上に寄与している。大強度スパレーション中性子源の稼働により熱外中性子ビームの本格的利用が進んでおり、熱外中性子の全反射光学の実用化が望まれる。本研究では、J-PARC MLFにおいて、単結晶シリコンによる中性子回折を用いて77meVから695meVのエネルギー範囲の平行中性子ビームを用意し、多層膜中性子ミラーによる鏡面反射を実測した。これによって、中性子全反射光学系の適用範囲は、500meVを超えて、近熱外中性子領域に拡張された。
    本研究で近熱外中性子の全反射が実測されたことにより、中性子の物質表面における全反射が物質表面が完全な平面である限り、表面法線方向の中性子速度成分が物質固有の臨界速度に比べて小さい範囲において、入射中性子のエネルギーに依存せずに生じることが実証された。同時に、現在の精密機械加工の水準で問題なく近熱外反射光学を構成できることが実証され、熱外中性子を用いた中性子吸収による複合核過程を利用した基礎物理研究、熱外中性子非弾性散乱にによる物性物理あるいは化学研究における利用の拡大を図ることが可能となった。

    パルス熱外中性子ビームの単色度を向上させる光学系として、拡張したスピンフリップチョッパーの性能を考察しJ-PARCパルス中性子源に配備した場合の性能を求めた。物質研究における汎用性を勘案し、適用エネルギー範囲を200eV程度まで拡張することを想定して研究を進め、得られるビーム強度の算定までを終えた。この結果をもとにJ-PARCパルス中性子施設に配備する可能性の検討に入った。
    なお、この実現には、熱外中性子スピンフィルターと高反射臨界角中性子導管が必要となるため、開発研究に着手することにしている。
