First pionic atom spectroscopy at RIBF

We have performed an inclusive spectroscopy of 122Sn(d, 3He) reaction near the pion emission threshold at an incident energy of Td = 250 MeV/nucleon. The first experiment aims as devloping the high precision spectroscopy of pionic atoms at the RI beam factory (RIBF) of RIKEN, which leads to a new project, pionic Atom Factory project (piAF) to measure pionic atoms for a wide range of elements. We report the analysis status of the pilot experiment

The first precision measurement of deeply bound pionic states in

We performed a precision missing-mass spectroscopy experiment of the deeply bound pionic states in a 121Sn atom using the (d,3He) reaction near the π− emission threshold. The experiment serves as a pilot experiment for our new ‘pionic atom factory project’ at RIBF, which aims at precision spectroscopy of the energy spectrum of the pionic atom of isotopes and isotones. The result of the pilot experiment demonstrated the potentiality of BigRIPS and of the RIBF facilities for the project. The current status of the analysis is reported
