§1. A New Cryogenic H2/D2 Target Production System We have constructed a 4π γ-ray detector named FOREST [1] in the GeV-γ experimental hall at Laboratory of Nuclear Science. The FOREST is used for the study of elementary reactions such as N(γ,π0)X. A hydrogen/deuterium (H2/D2) target is important in our study. We need to construct the H2/D2 target fitted to the FOREST detector. At first, we constructed a solid hydrogen target in a small vacuum chamber, using a cryostat. Then, we have made many tests under various conditions with a new vacuum chamber, which is planned to be used in our experiments. We have succeeded in making a solid hydrogen target. The new cryogenic H2/D2 target system consists of three parts: a gas cooling system, a heat shield defending a cryostat from heat radiation, and a vacuum chamber. Figure 1 shows a schematic view of the system.
