| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Liquid Ar TPC detector technology is indispensable to give an answer to the quest for the origin of matter dominated universe. With this JSPS grant in aid program, the prototype Liquid Ar TPC detector is constructed and evaluated of its performances. Based on this experience, it is concluded that this type of detector is equipped with the necessary functionality to be used as T2K near site detector. With the experimental configuration, such that the 20kt to 70kt of this type of detector is located at the distance of 2300km from the neutrino production target and at deep underground (more than 3000m water equivalent depth), it is concluded that its unprecedentedly excellent performance on neutrino mass hierarchy determination and investigation of lepton sector CP violation, is unrivaled by other similar projects. It is recognized that the deep underground site for the detector is important to reach ultimate experiment sensitivity on proton decay search.
