Abstract
A concept, a design, a construction and an account of commissioning experiments are given for the recently completed ultra-slow muon facility at the pulsed muon facility of UT-MSL/KEK. The intense (more than 103/s) slow μ+ beam with an extremely narrow phase-space volume (0.2 eV×(3 cm)2) to be produced in this facility will open a new muon science including surface physics and chemistry and fundamental atomic physics.
