| Abstract | The Superomega muon beamline is currently under construction at Experimental hall No. 2 of the Materials and Life Science Facility at J-PARC in Tokai, Japan. The beamline has a large solid angle acceptance, and will produce the highest intensity pulsed muon beam in the world. The beamline is designed to capture both surface positive and cloud negative muons for simultaneous use in a variety of experiments. The expected rate of surface muons for this beamline is 4x10(8) mu(+)/s, and that for cloud muons is 10(7) mu(-)/s. The beamline consists of the normal-conducting capture solenoid, the superconducting curved transport solenoid and axial focusing solenoid. The construction of the capture solenoid has been completed and installed in March 2009, and the transport solenoid is now fabricated, and will be installed in the summer of 2011. The calculation of the beamline optics of the axial focusing solenoid is underway. |
