MESON2012 12th International Workshop on Meson Production, Properties

and Interaction, Cracow, Poland, 31 May - 5 June 2012

Jagiellonian University, Cracow, Poland on behalf and for the WASA-at-COSY Collaboration

Studies of the eta meson decays with the WASA detector at COSY

WASA-at-COSY

searches for the phenomena beyond the applicability of

Standard Model of Particle Physics

Since nothing is more pleasurable than to falsify the theory !!

I thought… the scientific theories were not the digest of observation,but that they were inventions-conjectures boldly put forward for trialto be eliminated if they clashed with observation … David Hume

production and decay of the meson

Production:• test of charge symmetry • search for the eta-mesic nuclei• studies of ABC effect – new resonance?• hadronic interactions …

Decays: • test of discrete symmetries• search for dark matter boson• contributing to the study of aμ

• test of QCD anomalies• test of CHPT …

decay: meson C P CP +1 -1 -1

All strong and electromagentic decays are forbidden in a first order

In SM weak decays are expected to occur at 10-13

PRECISE TESTS OF DISCRETE SYMMETRIES

violates P and CP

violates G and ( I or C )

0γ , 00γ violates C

γγγ violates C etc…

Second order EM γγ is forbidden in a massless quarks limits

C() = +1 , P() =-1; C(0) = +1 , P(0) =-1
