| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to apply the frictional cooling technique for obtaining slow positive and negative muon beams with an excellent emittance distribution the simulation program GEANT4 is implemented. Simulation geometry consists of 10 thin carbon absorber stacks(moderators) and 1 cm-gaps for electric potential.The results are compared with root-mean square energy width,angular straggling and emittance density. A little better distribution is obtained by applying the electric potential, but it is not sufficient for the final purpose, production of exotic atom, that is, true muonium. In addition, a bright proton accelerator (OCEANII) is constructed for Proof Of Principle experiment. The gas moderator will be developed.
