Abstract
Construction of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), which is almost at the final stage, has been in progress under a cooperation of two institutions, KEK and Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA). The beam commissioning of the proton injector was started in the fall of 2006, and the beam was accelerated up to the design energy of 181 MeV in January, 2007. The beam was further transfered to the next proton synchrotron, and was successfully accelerated to 3 GeV at the end of October, 2007. Construction of the hadron experimental hall is completed in June, 2007, and the beam line equipment is going to be installed from the upstream part. Various experiments on strangeness nuclear physics are planned in the hadron experimental hall. Here, I introduce some of the interesting experimental programs.
