Motivation for new studies
• The low-energy kaon-nucleon interaction is neither simple nor well understood
• Central importance for the physics of strong interaction has the dynamics driven
by chiral symmetry breaking in low-energy QCD
• Problems arise from the existence of hyperon resonances like the Λ(1405)
• Problems arise also due to 2 nucleon K- absorption possibly imitating bound states
• The development of reliable theories suffers from the lack of precision data on the
observables at threshold (e.g. shift/width of kaonic atoms)
19th IUPAP Conference on Few Body Problems
Interesting question:Two-pole structure??Λ(1405) & Λ(1420) and their impact

Sources of experimental information on the low energy (anti)kaon-nucleon interaction
• Kaon-proton scattering data (old data with large errors, above threshold extrapolation)
• πΣ mass spectrum• Threshold decay ratios• X-ray data of light kaonic atoms (K-p, K-d, K-He): see talks by S. Okada and Iio
at this conference– Kaonic hydrogen increase precision, threshold data important input for theory – Kaonic deuterium first experimental studies, threshold data important input
for theory – Kaonic helium-4 2p shift small (KEK 570), rules out „superstrong“ antikaon
nuclear interaction– Kaonic helium-3 first experimental studies
• Reliable theory has to cope these informations

Kaonic hydrogen and deuterium
• Strong interaction effects manifest in hadronic shift and width of the 1s state, i.e. deviation from the electromagnetic value of the 1s state and broadening due to absorption
• which can be calculated with an accuracy of about 1eV by solving the Klein-Gordon (KG) equation and taking into account vacuum polarization (VP) and final size (FS) effect.
• Strong interaction effect on 2p state is weak (meV) and experimentally undetermined, but has severe consequences for the x-ray yield

New experiments?
• Requirements for pbar annihilation studies at rest:(J. Zmeskal et al. Proc. EXA08, Hyp. Int. In print)
– Low-energy pbar beam: AD/CERN, FLAIR/FAIR– Detector for exclusive annihilation studies
in nuclei
• Start counter – scintillating fibers with Geiger Mode - APD readout
• PID – with a TPC - GEM (similar as proposed for PANDA)
• For neutral particle detection - a Calorimeter with alternating scintillating fibres – lead layers (KLOE-type)
– High statistics
19th IUPAP Conference on Few Body Problems 21
Status and Outlook• New experiments on threshold data (shift, width) of light kaonic atoms are
running (SIDDHARTA@LNF) or in preparation (E17@J-PARC)
• Threshold data are crucial prerequisites for the theoretical description (enhancement of the predictive power for sub-threshold)
• Challenge: Nature of Λ(1405) – 2-pole structure? Can one investigate this question experimentally?
• Theoretical studies on the question of kaonic nuclear clusters are ongoing (Faddeev, variational calculations)
• Evidence for existence of kaonic nuclear clusters (FINUDA, OBELIX, DISTO, …)
• New fully exclusive experiments with various reactions are indispensible and are in preparation
• New idea: Kaonic nuclear cluster with double strangeness produced in antiproton annihilation
