2 A search for deeply bound kaonic nuclear states Direct production of K-pp cluster via 3 He(K-,n) reaction Direct production of K-pp cluster via 3 He(K-,n) reaction K-K- 3 He K - pp cluster neutron reaction Missing mass spectroscopy ??? Decay? Goal for the experiment J-PARC E15 Goal for the experiment J-PARC E15 To answering the basic question : whether the deeply bound state really exists? To answering the basic question : whether the deeply bound state really exists?

3 Possible K - pp decay mode K - pp cluster FINUDA fit region K - pp?? Phys. Rev.
