CHARM BARYON AND HYPERON PHYSICS AT FERMILABS SELEX SPECTROMETER

摘要

Fermilab experiment 181, or SELEX, is starting to take data, with the goal of observing on the order of 1 million reconstructed charm decays. A variety of targets and beams will yield significant new information on charm production. The detector has good efficiency in the forward direction, which will enhance the yield of charm baryon decays. Several topics in hyperon physics can be addressed as well with this spectrometer.
