Abstract: (Elsevier)
Status of the KEK B-Factory (KEKB) and the detector (BELLE) is reviewed. The aim of the project is to observe CP violation effects in B meson decays and test the KM model predictions for CP violation. The project started in 1994 and the data taking is expected to begin in 1999. The design of both the accelerator and the detector are almost fixed. The goal of the luminosity is 10 34 cm −2 s −1 , which produces 10 8 B-meson pairs per year.
