Description

While studying the double Λ hypernuclei and Ξ hypernuclei is essential in further understanding baryon-baryon interaction with S=-2 systems, experimental data still need to be provided. Several earlier experiments, such as KEK-PS E373 and J-PARC E07, reported possible attractive Ξ–nucleus interaction from bound Ξ hypernuclear states.
Recently, the E42 experiment which has a primary goal to search for an H-dibaryon collected 300K 12C(K,K+)X reaction events in the ranges of θK+<25 and pK+> 0.5 GeV/c via 1.8 GeV/c K beam at the J-PARC. A large time-projection chamber (HypTPC) highlights the E42 detector, facilitating a charged particle reconstruction for subsequent decays of the double-strangeness system produced near the threshold region in the 12C(K,K+)X reaction. Therefore, the E42 data would first measure all decay channels involving charged particle emission from 12C(K,K+)X reaction with high statistics.
This talk will present the preliminary results of the J-PARC E42 experiment.
