Investigation of the low-energy K− hadronic interactions with light nuclei by AMADEUS.

The aim of the AMADEUS collaboration is to provide new experimental constraints to the antikaon-nucleon ( K ̄ N) strong interaction in the regime of nonperturbative QCD, investigating the low-energy K − hadronic interactions with light nuclei like H, ⁴He, ⁹Be and 1 2 C. The unique low-momentum kaon beam produced at the DA Φ NE collider is ideal to study K − nuclear captures, both at-rest and in-flight. The large acceptance KLOE detector, used as an active target, allows to achieve excellent position and momentum resolutions. In this work, a brief description of recent AMADEUS results is presented.
