Neutral kaon photoproduction at LNS, Tohoku Masashi Kaneta for the NKS/NKS2 collaboration Department of Physics Tohoku University International Symposium on Strangeness in Nuclear and Hadronic Systems -SENDAI08- (Dec15-18) イントロダクション Introduction Masashi Kaneta, Tohoku Univ. International Symposium on Strangeness in Nuclear and Hadronic Systems -SENDAI08- (Dec15-18) 2 Physics Motivation • Investigation of strangeness production mechanism –Threshold region of the production • No resonance decay effect – Good for comparison with models • Give theoreticians base data to address – Coupling constant – Resonance contribution • Small cross-section, i.e. high statistics data is required –Neutral channel in the strangeness photo-production • Past experiments studied by K + production until 2002 • Not enough data of differential cross-section of g+n K 0+L Masashi Kaneta, Tohoku Univ.
