DIRAC experiment at CERN

  • 1. Kyoto Sangyo Univ., Faculty of Science, Kyoto (Japan)

Description

DIRAC experiment at CERN is aimed at measuring the lifetime of Aππ atom precisely and deducing the S-wave ππ scattering length within 5% of precision. The experiment has been approved in 1996 and now the data taking is going on. The overview of the experiment is reported here with a stress on the part that the Japanese group is taking care of. Some preliminary results are also presented. (author)
