Abstract

We have searched for the simplest kaonic nuclear state, K̄NN, using the in-flight ³He (K^-, n) reaction at the J-PARC hadron experimental facility. In the semi-inclusive neutron missing-mass spectrum at θnlab=0°, an excess of yield was observed just below the K^- pp mass-threshold, which cannot be explained by any elementary reactions [PTEP 2015, 061D01]. To understand the missing-mass spectrum of ³He (K^-, n) X, we investigated the elementary (K^-, n) reactions using hydrogen and deuterium targets. The p (K^-, n) X missing-mass spectrum was well described by the charge-exchange reaction. However, in the d (K^-, n) X spectrum, we observed an excess of yield just below the K^- p mass-threshold, which was similar to that in the ³He (K^-, n) X spectrum.
