  3. Observables? KK m = (984.7±1.2) MeV/c2 (“average“) G = (50...100) MeV/c2 (“estimate“) m = (980±10) MeV/c2 (“estimate“) G = (40...100) MeV/c2 (“estimate“) a0 G(KK/ph) = (0.183±0.024) (“seen“/“dominant“) a0– a00 f0 a0+ –1 0 +1 I3= f0 pp ph G(KK/pp) = ... (“seen“/“dominant“) • Observables at COSY (yet unknown): • Mass distributions • Branching ratios to KK and ph/pp • (Differential) production cross sections • Isospin ratios (e.g. pn vs. pp reactions) • a0-f0 mixing • Polarization observables a0 COSY limit Markus Büscher m.buescher@fz-juelich.de

  4. The Accelerator: COSY-Jülich COSY (Cooler Synchroton) at FZ-Jülich: • (polarized) p & d beams • phase-space cooling • electron & stochasting cooling • p = 0.30 – 3.70 GeV/c • pp  pp X (mX  1.1 GeV/c2) • dd  a X (mX  1.03 GeV/c2) • pp  pK+ Y* (mY*  1.5 GeV/c2) • internal & extracted beams Markus Büscher m.buescher@fz-juelich.de

  5. The detectors: ANKE & WASA Ready for experiments in 2006 In operation since 1998 WASA ANKE • currently at CELSIUS (Uppsala) • nearly 4p coverage • charged and neutral particle i.d. • frozen pellet target (L ~ few1032 cm-2s-1) • forward spectrometer (small acceptance) • optimized for K+/K- detection • cluster jet target (L ~ few1031 cm-2s-1) Markus Büscher m.buescher@fz-juelich.de
