Abstract

J-PARC, Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex, is the research facility with high intensity proton accelerators which consists of a chain of three accelerators, ie, 400MeV LINAC, 3GeV Rapid Cycling Schinchrotron (RCS), and 30GeV main ring, and three experimental facility, ie, Material & Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF), Hadron Experimetanl facility (HEF), and Neutrino experimental facility. The RCS provides 3GeV proton beam to MLF to produce muon and neutron beam and MR provides the 30GeV proton beam to HEF and neutrino facility. The original design intensity of the accelerators are 1MW and 750kW for RCS and MR, respectively. J-PARC is an unique accelerator facility in the sense that it covers very wide  research fields ranging from elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, material and life science, and even, industrial applications. In my presentation I will introduce the latest status of J-PARC accelerators and facilities, recent scientific outcomes, and future plans.
