Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to measure the electric dipole moment of neutrons which is one of the major targets of present elementary particle physics, we have achieved (A) the developments of technology for the optical materials and numerical analysis scheme for the transportation and storage of ultra-cold-neutron (UCN), essential for controlling systematic errors, and (B) succeeded in developing UCN acceleration / deceleration device. In particular, we have succeeded; 1) improvement of core of Geant 4 and introducing non-specular reflection model, 2) measurements of the reflective potential and non-specular reflection component for many samples, and development of superior material with the world's highest level of reflection by deuterated-diamond-coating, 3) measuring J-PARC's first UCN storage experiment and accumulation efficiency, 4) develop a system to accelerate and decelerate UCN and controlling the velocity distribution of UCN from existing Doppler shifter, for the first time at J-PARC.
