With the imminent operational start of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), a range of fundamental experiments in nuclear and particle physics will come within reach in the near future, while this new facility willalso provide a pulsed neutron source for applications in materials and life sciences. The present volume is dedicated the detailed presentation of eight among the most promising fundamental experiments, including the study of rare kaon decays (CP and T violations), neutrino oscillations, pentaquarks, hypernuclei precision spectroscopy, muon sciences (g-2, electric dipole moment, flavourviolations) and meson studies (mass modification of vector mesons in medium, bound states in nuclei). INDICE: Overview of J-PARC.- The T2K Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment.- The very rare decay K_L.- Search for T-violation in K+ decays.- Gamma-Ray spectroscopy of lambda hypernuclei.- Search for the pentaquark theta+.- In medium mass modification of vector mesons.- Experimental Investigations of Mesonic Bound States in Nuclei.- Muon Particle and Nuclear Physics Programs at J-PARC.
