LL-Invariant Mass S~ 9 s to the Combinatorial S~3 s to the INC+fss2(QCM) fss2 well reproduce BLL(6LLHe)~ 1. MeV
Conclusion 1 • We have confirmed the peak near threshold in LL mass spectrum previously observed by E224 with higher statistics. • The data can not be explained with final state interaction which is consistent with weak attractive LL “binding” energy determined from the mass of 6HeLL. • The H-dibaryon resonance is a possible interpretation of the peak. More theoretical input is needed as well as experiments. • Data Analysis was done by C.J.Yoon (Kyoto)
Pentaquark search in KEK-PS E522 • Objectives of E522 • H-dibaryon resonance search via (K-,K+) reaction • Kaonic Nuclei search via (K-,p) reaction • Q+ search via (p-,K-) reaction(as extra) 3days

Assume s-wave 10.8% of K accepted Upper limit of cross section • fbeam=83%(e, contamination 13%, reaction 4%) • eK2=72.3% • eDAQ=94% • fKabs=89.8% • etrack=84.6% • fdecay=57.6% • fcherenkov=91% • eMT=95.7% • eana=51% • d=0.14sr
Conclusion 2 • We have searched for Pentaquark Q+ by p- p -> K- Q+ reaction at KEK-PS • A peak of 2.6 s was observed at 1531 MeV. • Upper limit of the production cross section was obtained to be about 4 mb which is smaller than most of theoretical calculations. • (The analysis was done by K.Miwa (Kyoto))
