Observation of the rare η→e+e−e+e− decay with the KLOE experiment
2011
Abstract We report the first observation of the rare η → e + e − e + e − ( γ ) decay based on 1.7 fb − 1 collected by the KLOE experiment at the DAΦNE ϕ-factory. The selection of the e + e − e + e − final state is fully inclusive of radiation. We have identified 362 ± 29 events resulting in a branching ratio of ( 2.4 ± 0.2 stat + bckg ± 0.1 syst ) × 10 − 5 .
Physics with the KLOE-2 experiment at the upgraded DAFNE
2010
Investigation at a $\phi$--factory can shed light on several debated issues in particle physics. We discuss: i) recent theoretical development and experimental progress in kaon physics relevant for the Standard Model tests in the flavor sector, ii) the sensitivity we can reach in probing CPT and Quantum Mechanics from time evolution of entangled kaon states, iii) the interest for improving on the present measurements of non-leptonic and radiative decays of kaons and eta/eta$^\prime$ mesons, iv) the contribution to understand the nature of light scalar mesons, and v) the opportunity to search for narrow di-lepton resonances suggested by recent models proposing a hidden dark-matter sector. We…
Determination of theη′-Proton Scattering Length in Free Space
2014
Taking advantage of both the high mass resolution of the COSY-11 detector and the high energy resolution of the low-emittance proton beam of the cooler synchrotron COSY, we determine the excitation function for the $pp\ensuremath{\rightarrow}pp{\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ reaction close to threshold. Combining these data with previous results, we extract the scattering length for the ${\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$-proton potential in free space to be $\mathrm{Re}({a}_{p{\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}}})=0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.43\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{fm}$ and $\mathrm{Im}({a}_{p{\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}}})={0.37}_{\ensuremath{-}0.16}^{+0.40}\text{ }\t…
A new limit on the CP violating decay KS→3π0 with the KLOE experiment
2013
We have carried out a new direct search for the CP violating decay K-S -> 3 pi(0) with 1.7 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) collisions collected by the KLOE detector at the Phi-factory DA Phi NE. We have searched for this decay in a sample of about 5.9 x 10(8) KSKL events tagging the K-S by means of the K-L interaction in the calorimeter and requiring six prompt photons. With respect to our previous search, the analysis has been improved by increasing of a factor four the tagged sample and by a more effective background rejection of fake K-S tags and spurious clusters. We find no candidates in data and simulated background samples, while we expect 0.12 standard model events. Normalizing to the number of …
