The muon science facility (MUSE), along with the neutron, hadron, and neutrino facilities, is one of the experimental areas of the J-PARC project, which was approved for construction in a period from 2001 to 2008. The MUSE facility is located in the Materials and Life Science Facility (MLF), which is a building integrated to include both neutron and muon science programs. After construction of the MLF building, the secondary muon lines were designed to extract efficiently either pions or muons from a muon production graphite target to the four muon beamline, the so-called D-Line, U-Line, S-Line and H-Line, enabling a variety of muon related experiments, at the ten experimental areas (D1, D2, U1A, U1B, S1, S2, S3, S4, H1 and H2) utilizing unique features of the pulsed muon beam. We have been working on the designing of the beamline components, utilizing various simulation codes.
