This work concerned two experimental searches for the violation of fundamental discrete symmetries in physical systems originating from electron-positron interactions. The first study was a direct test of the symmetry under reversal in time…
This paper is devoted to the first analyses based on the complete data sample collected by the KLOE detector at DAPHNE, the Frascati \phi-factory. The result for the BR(K_S -> \gamma\gamma) and the search for the decay K_S->e+e- are…
We have searched for the decay Ks->3p^0 with the KLOE experiment at DAFNE using data from e^+ e^- collisions at a center of mass energy W= m(phi) for an integrated luminosity L=450 pb^-1. The search has been performed with a pure Ks beam…
Within the general frame of the upgrade of the collider DAFNE to the neutron-antineutron energy threshold (2-2.5 GeV c.m.), modifications and different options for the accelerator design are discussed and a possible lattice for the Main…
The AMADEUS experiment aims to perform precision studies in the sector of low-energy kaon-nuclei interaction at the DA\Phi NE collider at LNF-INFN, implementing a dedicated setup in the central region of the KLOE detector. As a first step…
At the Frascati phi-factory DAPHNE the pion formfactor is measured by means of the 'radiative return', i.e. by using events in which one of the collider electrons (positrons) has radiated an initial state radiation photon, lowering in such…
We present the physics case of DAFNE-2, an $e^+e^-$ collider expected to deliver 20-50 fb$^{-1}$ at the $\phi(1020)$ peak, and $\sim$ 5 fb$^{-1}$ in the energy region between 1 and 2.5 GeV.
From 2004 the Frascati Beam Test Facility (BTF) in the DAFNE accelerator complex provides to the external user up to 1E10 electrons per bunch or up to 10E9 positrons per bunch to develop their detectors. After an upgrade program terminated…
We present a measurement of {\eta} meson production in photon-photon interactions produced by electron-positron beams colliding with \sqrt{s}=1 GeV. The measurement is done with the KLOE detector at the \phi-factory DA{\Phi}NE with an…
DAFNE operation restarted in September 2003, after a six month shut-down for the installation of FINUDA, a magnetic detector dedicated to the study of hypernuclear physics. FINUDA is the third experiment running on DAFNE and operates while…
We reexamine the feasibility of two-photon reactions at DA$\Phi$NE with the KLOE detector excluding the small angle tagging system. Event-rate predictions of interesting channels : $\gamma \gamma \to \pi^0, \eta $ and $\gamma \gamma \to…
The SIDDHARTA-2 collaboration at the INFN Laboratories of Frascati (LNF) aims to perform groundbreaking measurements on kaonic atoms. In parallel and beyond the ongoing kaonic deuterium, presently running on the DA$\Phi$NE collider at LNF,…
The KLOE experiment at the $\phi-factory$ DA$\Phi$NE in Frascati is the first to have employed Initial State Radiation (ISR) to precisely determine the $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-(\gamma)$ cross section below 1 GeV. Such a measurement is…
The KLOE Collaboration completed the full data taking on March 2006, acquiring 2.5 fb ^ -1 at the peak of the \phi and other 240 pb ^ -1 off-peak. A new Collaboration is working on a new project, called KLOE-2, to refine and extend the KLOE…
One of the basic motivations of the KLOE-2 and WASA-at-COSY experiments is the test of fundamental symmetries and the search for phenomena beyond the Standard Model in the hadronic and leptonic decays of ground-state mesons and in…
Lambda-hypernuclei are produced and studied, with the FINUDA spectrometer, for the first time at an e+e- collider: DAPHNE, the Frascati phi-factory. The slow negative kaons from phi(1020) decay are stopped in thin (0.2 g/cm^2) nuclear…
We present a study of the reaction e+e- \to pi+pi-gamma at the phi peak with the KLOE detector at the phi-factory DAPHNE. This reaction allows us to obtain the cross section for \e+e- \to pi+pi- from the e+e- center-of-mass energy W =…
