For the rapid proton capture process ($$it{rp}$$-process) in X-ray bursts and the core-collapse stage of supernovae, proton-rich $$it{pf}$$-shell nuclei far from the line of stability play important roles. Studies of the feeding ratios and half-lives of the $$beta$$ and electron capture decays of these proton-rich $$it{pf}$$-shell nuclei are of great astrophysical interest not only for nucleosynthesis but also for Fermi and Gamow-Teller transition study. The experiment to measure the half life of $$beta$$ decay of $$^{46}$$Cr was performed using the low-energy RI beam separator (CRIB) of the Center for Nuclear Study (CNS), University of Tokyo. The $$^{46}$$Cr particles were produced by the $$^{36}$$Ar + $$^{12}$$C fusion reaction. A natural C foil of 0.56 mg/cm$$^{2}$$ was installed as the primary target. The $$^{36}$$Ar primary beam was accelerated up to 3.6 MeV/nucleon by the RIKEN AVF cyclotron. A double sided Si strip detector (DSSD) of 500-$$mu$$m thickness was used as a $$beta$$-ray detector. A Si detector of 1.5-mm thickness was placed just behind the DSSD for a $$beta$$-ray detector. To measure $$beta$$-delayed $$gamma$$ rays, 3 clover and 1 coaxial Ge detectors were set around the target chamber. The beam was pulsed to measure the half life of the $$beta$$ decay of $$^{46}$$Cr. The $$beta$$-delayed $$gamma$$ ray of $$^{46}$$Cr was observed in this experiment. The experimental result will be discussed.
