Abstract

The planned series of measurements with AMADEUS will provide a high precision data set to study antikaon nucleus/nucleon dynamics at low energy. To achieve these goals AMADEUS will make use of the KLOE detector system at LNF, which is ideally suited for our measurements due to their large drift chamber with excellent charge particle tracking and identification probability. An almost 4π calorimeter is available for the detection of neutral particles. R&D work has already started to construct a dedicated target and trigger system for further improvements on kaon stopping efficiency and background suppression.
