Isotropic production (  + n   p) and decays (    0 ,  0  2  ) are assumed. ++ n p     00 More omega mesons might be produced at forward direction (high momentum in lab. frame). backwardforward

10. Summary To detect all three photons from omega, calorimeter with large solid angle (0<  <~120deg) is necessary. –FOREST?? http://www.lns.tohoku.ac.jp/~hadron/ To detect recoil protons for background rejection, magnetic spectrometer with large solid angle and good momentum resolution is necessary. –SKS? (aperture?) –2D position detector is a substitute. 2MeV/c  1 mrad  300  m/30cm GEM? –Final state interaction of proton in nucleus. –Fermi motion of neutron target (LD 2, Nb, etc.). –Vertex determination. Mass resolution? Production cross section vs beam momentum? Final state interaction?   2  0  4  measurement at the same time??

11. Background and trigger There is huge  + n   0 p background. –3 gamma coincidence is necessary. >=3 gamma background. –2  0  4  (  +  0  p2  0,   2  0, no  partner for  0 mass in the acceptance?) –   3  0  6  (low mass in offline analysis, many hits online rejection?). – etc. 1 charged track online (offline?) coincidence (+vertex extrapolation from XY-XY measurement?) –Multi charged track veto? Interaction rate? Accidental coincidence rate? –With large acceptance for final state interaction

46. Isospin symmetry Since isospins of  + n   p reaction and  - p   n reaction are symmetric, the cross sections should be almost the same. A reference of  - p   n reaction is PRD14, 28 (1975). –The angular distribution was isotropic in CM.
