  1. The JPARC Neutrino Target Y.Hayato (ICRR, Univ. of Tokyo) for T.Nakadaira & J-PARC n beam-line construction group (I borrowed most of all the transparencies from Nakadaira-san)

  2. J-PARC neutrino beam line Primary Proton beam line Extraction point Target Target station Bunch structure Decay volume Spill width ~5ms 8 (15) bunches/spill beam dump muon monitor Cycle: 3~4 sec Near neutrino detector Bunch spacing: ~600(300) ns Bunch length: 58ns (Full width)
