KLOE data analysis by AMADEUS collaboration Oton Vázquez Doce Introduction LAMBDA selection Lambda-PROTON analysis Lambda-DEUTERON analysis • Total amount of data analyzed up to an integrated luminosity of 400 pb-1from KLOE data (K-charged group) • Special ntuples of KLOE data were created, with kaons tagged by 2-body decay or by the dE/dx signature in the DC gas. • Strategy: • Search for hadronic interactions with Λ(1116) as products: • Λ→ p + p-(64% BR) vertex made by KLOE reconstruction • Construct a vertex with Λ + an extra particle

  6.

  28. AMADEUS global strategy: AMADEUS phase-1: start end 2009 (after KLOE2 step0), study di- and tri – baryon kaonic nuclei and low-energy kaon-nucleon/nuclei interactions AMADEUS phase-2: after 2010, higher integrated luminosity, refine study of di- tri-baryon kaonic nuclei; extend to other nuclei (spectroscopy of kaonic nuclei along the periodic table…)

  29. AMADEUS collaboration: 119 scientists from 13 Countries and 34 Institutes (+ JINR)

  31. The scientific case of the so-called “deeply bound kaonic nuclear states” is hotter than ever, both in the theoretical (intensive debate) and experimental sectors. What emerges is the strong need for a complete experimental study of the scientific case, i.e. a clear and clean experiment, measuring kaonic clusters both in formation and in the decay processes. AMADEUS’s main aim is to perform the first full acceptance, high precision measurement of DBKNS both in formation and in the decay processes, by implementing the KLOE detector with an inner AMADEUS-dedicated setup, containing a cryogenic target and a trigger system,

  32. information on the modification of the kaon mass and • on KN interaction in a nuclear medium, important for • the further understanding of aspects of low-energy QCD in strangeness sector; • gain information on the QCD phase-diagram •  changes of vacuum properties of QCD and the quark • condensate • kaon condensation in a nuclear medium •  implication on astrophysics: • neutron stars, strange stars • nuclear dynamics under extreme conditions could be • investigated (e.g. nuclear compressibility) DBKNS physic (existent or not!) related to fundamental physics issues

  33. Experimental programmeAMADEUS phase-1 (1) • study of the (most) fundamental antikaon deeply bound nuclear systems, the • kaonic dibaryon states: ppK- and (pnK-) • produced in a 3He gas target, in formation and decay processes • as next step, the • kaonic 3-baryon states: ppnK- and pnnK- • produced in a 4He gas target, in formation and decay processes

  35. Experimental programmeAMADEUS phase-1 (2) • Low-energy charged kaon cross sections on Helium(3 and 4), for K- momentum lower than 100 MeV/c (missing today); • The K- nuclear interactions in Helium reactions (poorly known – based on one paper from 1970 …) • Properties of L(1116) and chargedS–for example decays in channels with neutrino -> astrophysics implications (cooling of compact stars) • Resonance states as the elusive-in-nature but so important L(1405) or the S(1385)could be better understood with high statistics; their behaviour in the nuclear mediumcan be studied too.

  40. Trigger test:Scintillating Fibers and APDs:- tests are undergoing in SMI Vienna- BTF test in January 2008:FOPI - test

  41. Technical items needing special attention• The beam pipe: we plan to develop (with KLOE and DAFNE) a technical solution which should be easy to extract/implement. Special attention will be dedicated to the mechanical supports.• Cryogenic target: dedicated studies not only for the target itself,but for its mechanical supports and cooling power needed and how to bring the cryogeny inside.• Trigger system: a technical solution for the trigger system, including the optimization of geometry and cabling.• Slow controls: we study the slow control system (to be complemented to the KLOE one) for the specific AMADEUS items.• DAQ: software and hardware. We are aware and started already to collaborate with KLOE on the item of DAQ needs, from software and hardware points of view. We will rely on KLOE solution for the software, eventually developing dedicated on-line and (mostly) off-line analyses and Monte Carlo simulations, the hardware should be care of AMADEUS, with expertize from KLOE.

  44. Monte Carlo simulation:Momenta for particles from chain:K- 4He -> (K-pp) + n(K-pp) -> Ldwith BE = 120 MeVG = 24 MeVWell accessible for KLOEBackground under studyTo be integrated with KLOE MC

  45. Luminosity request, implementation plan and proposal for the roll-in

  46. Number of events in the “golden channel” K-4He --> (K-pp) + n with (K-pp) --> Ld 20% Stopped kaons Y = 0.1 % for DBKNS formation BR to decay to this channel: 10% (with L-> pp-) For 2 fb-1 integrated luminosity the number of events: 2 fb-1 x 3 mb x 0.5 (Kch) x 0.2 (stop) x 0.001 (y) x 0.1 (BR) = 60000 ev detection efficiency (20-40%) -> 12000 – 24000 events Neutron efficiency (30%) -> 3600 – 7200 eventsfor which both missing and invariant mass can be reconstructed, allowing so to have a complete information regarding the formation and decay of DBKNS in light systems.

  47. The luminosity request for AMADEUS Phase-1 is: • 2 fb-1of integrated luminosity with He4 target in order to study the tribaryonDBKNS • 1-2 fb-1of integrated luminosity with He3 target in order to study the dibaryon DBKNS • 0.5 fb-1of integrated luminosity for low-energy kaon-nuclear dedicated measurements for an overall integrated luminosity of 3.5 - 4 fb-1 With the luminosity upgrade of DAFNE, the machine should deliver at least 600pb-1/month, which means that the overall AMADEUS Phase-1 program could becompleted in about 8 months (considering installation).

  48. Implementation plan and roll-in proposal (1) • Cryogenic Target preparation:a first prototype will be built and tested within2008; the final target will be built and tested in the first half of 2009. • Trigger system: a first prototype containing 20 fibers read at both ends by APDs,is being prepared and will be tested on BTF in early 2008; a second prototype, withgreater dimensions and two layers , will be built and tested at BTF within 2008; thefinal detector will be designed and built within first half of 2009. • Beam pipe: a mixed team KLOE-DAFNE-AMADEUS will study this delicateditem and will provide technical solution for the beam pipe and its mechanical sup-port;the beam pipe for AMADEUS will be ready in the first half of 2009.
