Cancelation of MLF 2024B user program
Dear MLF users
Following the replacement of the mercury recirculation pump* during this summer's MLF maintenance, a defect occurred that prevented the mercury recirculation system from achieving its prescribed performance.
Although we had hoped to restore the system as soon as possible, we have decided to cancel the MLF user program of 2024B due to the root-cause measure work.
The handling of 2024B approved proposals will be notified to principal investigators later.
We sincerely apologize for the considerable inconvenience for all the user.
Takashi Kobayashi,
Director of J-PARC Center
