In neutron fundamental physics, study of correlation term 
of a neutron spin 
and a target nuclear spin 
is important because term interferes to parity non-conserving (PNC) and time reversal non-conserving terms. For this study, a xenon (Xe) is an interesting nucleus because it has been observed an enhancement of PNC effect around neutron resonance peaks, and polarizes up to 
by using a spin exchange optical pumping (SEOP) method. We would plan to develop a polarized Xe gas target with a compact in-situ SEOP system, and to study term by utilizing epithermal neutron beams supplied from a high intense pulsed spallation neutron source. As the first step, we attempted to measure neutron polarizing ability caused by term at a 9.6 eV s-wave resonance peak of 
Xe at BL10 in MLF, by detecting change 
of ratio between neutron transmissions with the polarized and unpolarized Xe target. After demonstrating that our apparatus could detect small change (
) of neutron transmissions caused by Doppler broadening effect, a signified value of has been obtained as preliminary results. For analyzing the obtained in detail, we are improving our nuclear magnetic resonance and electron paramagnetic resonance systems for evaluating Xe polarization independently of neutron beams.

Parity violating effects enhanced by up to 10
times have been observed in several neutron induced compound nuclei. There is a theoretical prediction that time reversal (T) violating effects can also be enhanced in these nuclei implying that T-violation can be searched for by making very sensitive measurements. However, the enhancement factor has not yet been measured in all nuclei. The angular distribution of the (n,) reaction was measured with La by using a germanium detector assembly at J-PARC, and the enhancement factor was obtained. From the result, the measurement time to achieve the most sensitive T-violation search was estimated as 1.4 days, and a 40% polarized La target and a 70% polarized He spin filter whose thickness is 70 atm
cm are needed. Therefore high quality He spin filter is developed in JAEA. The measurement result of the (n,) reaction at J-PARC and the development status of the He spin filter will be presented.

Research and development of gradient enhancement of superconducting RF accelerating cavity is carried out by accelerator research institute in the world, but defects on the cavity surface limit accelerating electric field. Therefore, development of "Inside inspection system for superconducting accelerated cavity" that optically visualizes the state of the inner surface of the superconducting cavity has been carried out, and results have been achieved. In this research, we apply image processing technology that has developed remarkably in recent years to the internal inspection system, and advanced the defect recognition method. Extraction of depth information and image synthesis were performed from images obtained with different focal positions with the camera for internal surface inspection. Also, by performing pattern recognition processing on the images, automatic detection of defects has become possible. By integrating these techniques into the cavity inner surface inspection system, it becomes possible to shorten the scan time for defect search and acquire the defect shape.

Times Cited Count：6 Percentile：30.62(Physics, Condensed Matter)We have studied a neutron polarization method by means of a quadrupole magnet. By passing through the aperture of the quadrupole magnet (QM), positive and negative polarity neutrons are accelerated in opposite directions and spatially separated due to the magnetic field gradient. Then, by extracting one spin component, we can obtain a highly polarized neutron beam. Since polarized neutrons do not interact with any substances in this method, we can obtain the polarized neutron beam free from neutron attenuation. As a result of a cold neutron beam polarization experiment by using the QM, we obtained extremely high neutron polarization degree P0.999. In this paper, we show some experimental results of the neutron polarization experiment and discuss the application of the QM-based polarizing device to neutron scattering experiments.
