Abstract

The J-PARC Hadron Facility is designed as a multipurpose experimental facility for a wide range of particle and nuclear physics programs, aiming to provide the world highest intensity secondary beams. The first primary beam has been successfully extracted and transported to the beam dump on January 2009. Currently three secondary beam lines come into operation, and the new beam line will be completed in the early summer of 2010. Various experimental programs are proposed at each beamline and some of them are preparing to start physics run. Most of the experimental researches concerns the studies of hypernuclei and searches for new hadronic states. As the first experiment at the J-PARC Hadron Facility, search for the Θ+ pentaquark via pion-induced hadronic reaction will be performed in the autumn of 2010. The current status and recent results of the commissioning for the beam line are reported.
