Search of a tetra-neutron state has been performed by measuring the double-charge exchange reaction 4He(8He,8Be) at 186 MeV/u at RIBF with the SHARAQ spectrometer. Utilizing large positive Q-value of the (8He,8Be) reaction, almost recoil-less condition of the four-neutron system was achieved so as to obtain weakly interacting four-neutron systems efficiently. A candidate of a tetra-neutron state has been found with 4.9 σ significance level at the energy of 0.83 ± 0.65(stat.) ± 1.25(sys.) MeV above the threshold of four-neutron decay. The detail of the experiment, its result and a possible interpretation will be presented.
