Workshop on Physics with Neutral Kaon Beam at JLab (KL2016) Mini-Proceedings

TL;DR

The KL2016 Workshop focused on exploring hyperon physics using a secondary Kaon beam at JLab, aiming to expand hadron spectroscopy into the strange sector and gather community feedback for future proposals.

Contribution

It presents a detailed discussion on the physics potential of using a Kaon beam at JLab for hyperon studies, extending hadron spectroscopy into the strange quark sector.

Findings

Broadened the scope of hadron spectroscopy to include strange hyperons.

Identified key experimental setups and physics motivations for using the Kaon beam.

Gathered community feedback to strengthen future research proposals.

Abstract

The KL2016 Workshop is following the Letter of Intent LoI12-15-001 "Physics Opportunities with Secondary KL beam at JLab" submitted to PAC43 with the main focus on the physics of excited hyperons produced by the Kaon beam on unpolarized and polarized targets with GlueX setup in Hall D. Such studies will broaden a physics program of hadron spectroscopy extending it to the strange sector. The Workshop was organized to get a feedback from the community to strengthen physics motivation of the LoI and prepare a full proposal.
