Muon physics programs at J-PARC

The Japan Proton Acceleration Research Complex (J-PARC) has started supplying proton beams for various applications, including particle physics experiments. These particle physics experiments use secondary beams produced from the intense primary proton beam with a pulsed time structure provided by J-PARC. In this presentation, we will describe the current status and future plans of the J-PARC project with particular focus on particle physics experiments using muons. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier B.
