Abstract
The DIRAC experiment at CERN has achieved a sizeable production of Ï+Ïâ atoms and has significantly improved the precision on its lifetime determination. From a sample of 21â227 atomic pairs, a 4% measurement of the S-wave ÏÏ scattering length difference |a0âa2|=(0.2533â0.0078+0.0080|stat|systâ0.0073+0.0078)MÏ+â1 has been attained, providing an important test of Chiral Perturbation Theory.
