被引用回数：3 パーセンタイル：80.44(Physics, Multidisciplinary)According to quantum chromodynamics, vacuum is not an empty space, because it is filled with quark-antiquark pairs. The pair has the same quantum numbers as the vacuum and forms a condensate because the strong interaction of the quantum chromodynamics is too strong to leave the vacuum empty. This quark-antiquark condensation, the chiral condensate, breaks the chiral symmetry of the vacuum. The expectation value of the chiral condensate is an order parameter of the chiral symmetry, which is expected to decrease at high temperatures or high matter densities where the chiral symmetry is partially restored. Head-on collisions of nuclei at ultra-relativistic energies have explored the high-temperature regime, but experiments at high densities are rare. Here we measure the spectrum of pionic 
Sn atoms and study the interaction between the pion and the nucleus. We find that the expectation value of the chiral condensate is reduced at finite density compared to the value in vacuum. The reduction is linearly extrapolated to the nuclear saturation density and indicates that the chiral symmetry is partially restored due to the extremely high density of the nucleus.

J-PARC E07 is the most ambitious and complex emulsion experiment to date investigating double hypernuclei with Hybrid emulsion method. The physics run at the K1.8 beam line in the J-PARC hadron experimental facility have been completed in 2017. The emulsion sheets are presently being analyzed with dedicated optical microscopes. Current statistics are estimated to be more 3 times than that of previous experiments. Quantitative data on the 
and 
interaction are being accumulated successfully via analysis of double and hypernuclei. Multiple hypernucleus candidates suggests several features about hypernucleus that the identification efficiency of 
C is significantly higher than other mode, many daughters of C are identified as He or Be, and multiple bound states of exist in the 
N nucleus. An analysis of X-ray spectroscopy of hyperatoms are ongoing.

There is a long-standing argument of the existence of kaonic nucleus, which is a bound state of anti-kaon and nucleus. Theoretically, its existence is strongly supported, however its binding energy and width have not been established yet. It is strongly desired to have an experiment to investigate the simplest kaonic nucleus, so-called bound state. We performed an experiment to search for via the in-flight reaction at J-PARC. By studying invariant mass spectrum in the final state and its dependence on momentum transfer of 
, we observed a resonant state located below

We will measure kaonic helium X-rays using transition-edge-sensor microcalorimeters, TES, in the J-PARC hadron experimental facility. To demonstrate the feasibility of the experiment, we performed a measurement of pionic carbon X-rays at PSI, where an excellent FWHM energy resolution of 7 eV at 6.4 keV was achieved. We also evaluated the expected TES performance in the kaon beam at J-PARC. The simulation results show that the TES spectrometer would work with a good energy resolution, and clear peaks of kaonic helium X-rays would be observed on a reasonably suppressed background.
