3 3 KN interaction and Kaonic nuclei K-nucleon interaction  Low energy Kp scattering  Kaonic hydrogen level shift (KEK-PS E228) Kaonic nuclei  Kaon bound states with a few nucleons  There are some experimental result of the simplest Kaonic nuclei (KNN) (FINUDA,DISTO) 3 M.Iwasaki et al., PRL 78, 3067(1997) Strongly attractive (I=0) How strong? To extract the information about KN interaction below KN threshold FINUDA DISTO B = 105±2±5 MeV  = 118±8±10MeV B = 115±6±4 MeV  = 67±14±3 MeV

4 4 J-PARC E15 experiment Experimental search for KNN bound states using in-flight (K -, N) reaction on 3 He Experimental search for KNN bound states using in-flight (K -, N) reaction on 3 He 4 K-K- 3 He Formation KNN cluster Neutron (proton)  p p -- Mode to decay charged particles Decay Missing mass Spectroscopy via neutron or proton Invariant mass reconstruction We can observe both the “Formation” and “Decay” of KNN bound state (especially K-pp state is important)

7 7 Isospin components of 3 He(K -, n/p) reaction At 3 He(K , n) reaction, there are 2 reaction components (A, B) ->Can not separate A and B experimentally. At 3 He(K , p) reaction, there is only reaction C. And reaction B and C are isobaric analogical. ->To compare with both 3 He(K -, n/p) reactions, We can get the information of isospin dependence of reactions Reaction A Reaction B Reaction C 3 He(K , n) Reaction 3 He(K , p) Reaction

21 21 Background?? : two nucleon absorption 21 2NA +  N rescattering /  conversion looks like a “signal” ?? (2NA itself is not a problem.) 2NA is very small 12 C(K -,n) @ 1GeV/c 12 C(K -,p) T. Kishimoto et al., Prog.Theor.Phys. 118(2007)181. De Broglie wave length @ 1 GeV/c ~ 1.2 fm NN distance in 3 He ~ 2.25 fm Proc. Jpn. Academy, Series B83 (2007) 144. These probabilities are expected to be very small... Anyway, let’s see how they look like!

22 22 Motivation of measuring 3 He(K , n/p) reaction Only 3 He(K , n) reaction channel was proposed @ E15 exp. →because K - is more attractive proton than neutron, so K - pp is most bounded simply. But isospin components of KNN from 3 He(K , n) reaction is mixed strongly attractive one and another one. only measuring 3 He(K , n) reaction, we can not separate strongly attractive one and another one.  He(K , n) reaction 3 He(K , p) reaction →Both measuring 3 He(K -, n/p) is needed!
