Charmed and Strange Quarks in Hadronic Reactions
(OSCAR)

Leader:

V. Kekelidze

Scientific Programme:

Experiment EXCHARM-II at IHEP (Protvino) is designed to search for exotic states with strange quarks and to study the production and decay of particles with charmed and strange quarks.
Experiment NA48 at CERN is purposed to obtain the most precise data on the "direct" CP-violation in kaon decays. The experiment is continued for a high sensitivity study of Ks and neutral hyperon decays using a modified Ks beam, and precision measurement of charged kaon decay parameters with the upgraded NA48 set-up.
Experiment H1 is purposed to study processes of deep-inelastic ep-scattering in a wide kinematic range up to very high Q 2 and down to very low Bjorken x to test QCD and electroweak sectors of the Standard Model.

Expected main results in 2002:
