Six-axis multi-anvil press ATSUHIME is the press installed at high-pressure neutron beamline PLANET in J-PARC. It was constructed for neutron diffraction experiments. At present, PLANET is only the beamline wherein high-pressure and high-temperature experiments are routinely conducted. Thus, the six-axis press has been used in a wide range of scientific fields, such as physics, geoscience, and physical chemistry. In this talk, I introduce the design and performance of the press as well as recent neutron studies conducted using ATSUHIME.
