Outline of Final Research Achievements

Electron and Muon have the same behavior without their mass on the standard model.This is known as Lepton Flavor Universality (LFU).
The experiment searches the new physics by a search of the violation of LFU using the charged Kaon decay.The ratio of the branching ratio of K→μν and K→eν was measured precisely using the J-PARC high intensity beam by the experiment.
This research calibrated the detectors and developed a calculation method of the energy and an algorithm of the particle identification. And also a detector Monte Carlo simulation program was developed to understand the detector system. From these, the research succeeded a counting of the target decay modes, a screening and an understanding of a background decay mode which is the structure dependent radiative decay.
