“…In order to identify low momentum kaons, a high resolution time-of-flight counter consists of resistive plate chambers are used. For the PID of high momentum particles, aerogel Cherenkov counters and time-of-propagation counters [15] will be developed. The one of the main physics purpose is to study the K − Θ + production from deuteron.…”

Hadron photoproduction in a few GeV region has been studied at the SPring-8/LEPS and the ELPH, Tohoku University. The recent results are summarized in this article. LEPS and ELPH have collaborated to construct a new GeV-photon beamline at SPring-8 (LEPS2). The commissioning experiment utilizing a new photon detector, BGO-EGG, has started and is being ready for physics data taking. The detector development of a large solid angle solenoid magnetic spectrometer is underway. The current status of LEPS2 is also reported.

PANDA will be a fixed target experiment internal to the HESR antiproton storage ring at the future FAIR complex. The PANDA detector requires excellent particle-identification capabilities in order to achieve its scientific potential. Cherenkov counters employing the DIRC principle were chosen as PID detectors for the Target Spectrometer. The proposed FocussingLightguide Disc DIRC will cover the forward part of the Target Spectrometer acceptance in the angular range between 5 • and 22 • . Its design includes a novel approach to mitigate dispersion effects in the solid radiator of a DIRC counter using optical elements. The dispersion correction will enable the Focussing-Lightguide Disc DIRC to provide pion-kaon identification for momenta well above 3.5 GeV/c.
