Contents • E13 atJ-PARC • Physics motivation • Setup : SksMinus • Yield estimate • Summary 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Day-1 experiment E13 at J-PARC Hypernuclear g-ray spectroscopy experiment • Spin-flip B(M1) measurement and gLin a nucleus (7LLi) • LN interaction study from p-shell hypernuclei (10LB and 11LB) • Radial dependence of LN interaction from sd-shell hypernuclei (19LF) • Charge symmetry breaking of LN interaction and Spin-flip property in hypernuclear production (4LHe) 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Motivation (1): Charge symmetry breaking Old data suggest large charge symmetry breaking in LN interaction. 4LH ⇔ 4LHe (Ln ⇔ Lp) • Mass difference : S+, S0, S-. Statistics of old g-ray data is poor, in particular 4LHe(1+→0+) data. PL83B(1979)252 Hyperfragment (Stop K- reaction) + NaI detector → In-flight (K-, p-) reaction + Ge detector Doppler shift correction & Low background 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Motivation (2): Spin-flip property Spin-flip property of L hypernuclear production (4LHe(1+)) • Confirm spin-flip cross sections • Study of baryon production in nuclei Beam momentum 1.1-1.8 GeV/c 4LHe(0+) 4LHe(1+) Spin-flip by K* exchange Elementary process K- + n -> L + p- • g-ray spectroscopy is the only way to measure the spin-flip state. • Excitation energy ~1MeV • ⇔ Magnetic spectrometer resolution • ~2 MeV 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University G.

Setup at the K1.8 beam line 4He (K-, p-g) 4LHe • (K-, p- ) reaction analysis: K1.8 + SksMinus • g-ray measurement: Hyperball-J (6 % efficiency @ 1 MeV) • Liquid 4He target (25 cm, 3.13 g/cm2) Beam momentum: 1.5 GeV/c Spin-flip measurement: 1.1-1.8 GeV/c 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
SksMinus setup Requirements for p- of 1.4 GeV/c • Acceptance >100 msr, ~20o scattering angles • Momentum resolution < 3 MeV/c (FWHM) SksMinus • SDC1~4 : Particle tracking • STOF : Time-of-flight • SAC : K- beam veto (n=1.03) • (SFV : K- beam veto) Background Veto _ • SMF : m- from K- → m- + n • SP0 : p- from K- → p- + p0 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
SksMinus basic performance • Acceptance is optimized for (K-, p- ) reaction @ pK=1.5 GeV/c. Sufficient for 1.0~1.7 GeV/c p- Covering scattering angle up to 20o • Momentum resolution < 3 MeV/c (FWHM) • PID counters: STOF, SAC (n=1.03) p- momentum [MeV/c] 2.7 T: pp = 1.1~1.7 GeV/c (pK = 1.2~1.8 GeV/c) (2.2 T: pp < 1.1 GeV/c (pK < 1.2 GeV/c)) 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Decay veto counters Decay veto counters are optimized for 1.5 GeV/c beam condition. SMF SP0 p- (stopped in the iron) m- (passing through) Decay veto counters will be used without changing the setup. 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University

Trigger rate ~600 /spill @ 1.5 GeV/c (~2000 /spill @ 1.8 GeV/c) • m events are greatly reduced in offline analysis @ 1.5 GeV/c. • m- rejection >99% 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University

Summary • 4LHe study in Day-1 g-ray spectroscopy experiment Charge symmetry breaking in LN interaction Spin-flip property of L hypernuclear production • SksMinus is designed for (K-, p-) reaction at pK=1.1~1.8 GeV/c. One configuration for all beam momentum Sufficient acceptance (>100 msr @ 1.0~1.7 GeV/c) • Total beam time of ~200 hours necessary for ~200 counts per each momentum 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Experimental advantages • g-ray spectroscopy is the only way to measure the spin-flip state. • Excitation energy ~1MeV ⇔ Magnetic spectrometer resolution ~2 MeV • → It is difficult to resolve the spin-flip state. Advantages for g-ray measurement Early experiment (by NaI detector) Hyperfragment (Stop K- reaction) + Identification via weak decay products • Large momentum transfer + Recoil momentum direction cannot be measured. ×Doppler shift correction = broad peak • Many background events Low sensitivity This experiment (by Ge detector) In-flight (K-, p-) reaction Doppler shift correction + Low background 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Cross section of 4LHe(1+)&(0+) 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
Particle identification • (K-, p- ) → p- or K- • Beam K- can greatly be decreased by SAC (n=1.03) and SFV • → less than 30 trigger /spill (500 k/spill beam) • Time resolution of STOF ~150 ps (rms) • For B(M1) measurement, dual SAC is planned because of saving forward events. 2007 JPS in Tokyo Metropolitan University
