Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a beam monitor for the various precision measurement in fundamental physics using pulsed muon beam. The detector consists of 0.1mm-diameter scintillating fibers to make the thickness of the detector as small as possible. The ultra-thin detector makes it possible to minimize the energy loss and scattering of the beam. The performance of the beam monitor was evaluated using muon beam at J-PARC MUSE D-line. We confirmed the detector gains sufficient signal and succeeded the measurement of the beam profile. We also installed the beam monitor to the J-PARC MuSEUM experiment and contributed to the measurement of muonium hyperfine structure.
