3. Introduction Polarized RI beam is extremely useful for studying the structure of unstable nuclei in detail through their nuclear moments ( , Q), fundamental symmetries or interactions in nuclear  decay, material science through the hyperrine interactions, and so on.

5. Projectile fragmentation Mechanism of polarization (since 1990, Asahi et al.) Because of the Fermi motion and deflection (Coulomb or nuclear force), polarization can be obtained by selecting the parallel momentum and deflection angle of fragments.
