Abstract

We search for the most fundamental kaonic nuclear state, K  −  pp by employing the reaction p + pK  +  + X at 3.0 GeV incident beam energy. The experiment makes use of the SIS-18 synchrotron and the ~4π acceptance FOPI apparatus in the cave-B at the GSI, Darmstadt, Germany and aims to collect full kinematics information of the reaction. We look for a signature of the X ( ≡ K  −  pp) in both missing mass spectrum by measuring K  + , and invariant mass spectrum by measuring decay particles; X → Λ + p. The experiment is planned to take place in 2009.
