| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ultra Slow Muon can bring breakthroughs in a variety of new fields of science over the wide range from life and materials science to particle physics. We constructed a ultra slow muon microscope (USMM) in J-PARC in early 2013 and planned to apply it to study thin films, near surface and interfaces. In spite of long shutting down of muon beam due to troubles in J-PARC since May 2013, the first ultra slow muons were successfully generated in February 2018, the next day of restarting beam experiment. By preparation and preliminary studies using conventional muon sources and complementary experimental methods as well as theoretical works, we accumulated fundamental data which will strongly help future studies by using USMM. These achievements strongly suggest potential of USMM to promote a science not only in well-known filelds such as magnetism, superconductivity, ion-conductivity of battery materials, but also a new academic field for muon in catalytic chemistry and biology.
