Av. Artamonov et al., On the possibility of experimental study of rare eta-, omega-, and eta '-meson decays with the U-70 accelerator, INSTR EXP R, 44(1), 2001, pp. 12-27
We consider potential experiments at the U-70 accelerator (Institute for Hi
gh Energy Physics, Protvino) on the search and study of rare neutral eta-,
omega-, and eta -meson decays that are critical for the modern theory, at a
qualitatively new level of statistical accuracy. A special setup with the
use of meson tagging and electromagnetic calorimetry on PbWO4 crystals is o
ffered for this experiment. The neural net approach was invoked at the stag
e of data processing. The Monte Carlo simulation of the experiment demonstr
ated its high sensitivity to rare-decay detection, which far exceeds the ex
isting world results.
