Single crystals of La(O,F)BiSSe were successfully grown by a CsCl flux method. Single crystal X-ray structural analysis revealed that the crystal structure is isostructural with BiS$_2$- or BiSe$_2$-based compounds with space group $P4/nmm$ (lattice
parameters $a$ = 4.1110(2) {AA}, $c$ = 13.6010(7) {AA}). However, the S atoms are selectively occupied at the apical site of the Bi-SSe pyramids in the superconducting layer. The single crystals show a superconducting transition at 4.2 K in the magnetic susceptibility and resistivity measurement. The superconducting anisotropic parameter is determined to be 34 from its upper critical magnetic field. The anisotropy is in the same range with that of other members of the La(O,F)BiCh$_2$ ($Ch$ = S, Se) family under ambient pressure.
We have constructed a liquid Argon TPC detector with fiducial mass of 150 kg as a part of the R&D program of the next generation neutrino and nucleon decay detector. This paper describes a study of particle identification performance of the detector
using well-defined charged particles (pions, kaons, and protons) with momentum of ~800 MeV/$c$ obtained at J-PARC K1.1BR beamline.
