The eta meson factory at Saclay

Abstract

A facility dedicated to the production of {eta} mesons has been installed at the Saturne synchrotron with the purpose of investigating rare decays of this meson. The {eta} are produced by the pd {yields} {sup 3}He {eta} reaction near threshold and tagged by the detection of {sup 3}He in a magnetic spectrometer (SPES2). A rate of 10{sup 5}/s tagged {eta} can be achieved. The first experiment consists in measuring the branching ratio of {eta} {yields} {mu}{sup +} {mu}{sup -} by detecting the muons in range telescopes.
