An exclusive measurement of the excitation function for the dd->3Heppi- reaction was performed at the Cooler Synchrotron COSY-Juelich with the WASA-at-COSY detection system. The data were taken during a slow acceleration of the beam from 2.185 GeV/c to 2.400 GeV/c crossing the kinematic threshold for the eta meson production in the dd->4He-eta reaction at 2.336 GeV/c. The corresponding excess energy with respect to the 4He-eta system varied from -51.4MeV to 22MeV. The integrated luminosity in the experiment was determined using the dd->3Hen reaction. The shape of the excitation function for the dd->3Heppi- was examined. No signal of the 4He-eta bound state was observed. An upper limit for the cross-section for the bound state formation and decay in the process dd->(4He-eta)bound->3Heppi- was determined on the 90% confidence level and it varies from 20nb to 27nb for the bound state width ranging from 5MeV to 35MeV, respectively.

A series of publications of the WASA collaboration culminates in a recent paper of Pricking, Bashkanov and Clement [1] claiming a dibaryon resonance at 2370 MeV. However, as explained here, there are logical flaws in this result. A natural alternativ e arises from the reaction pd -> N N*(1440)p_s where p_s is a spectator proton. There is supporting evidence from a recent experiment of Mielke et al. on dp -> 3He-piplus-piminus
An exclusive measurement of the dd -> 3He n pi 0 reaction was carried at a beam momentum of p = 1.2 GeV/c using the WASA-at-COSY facility. For the first time data on the total cross section as well as differential distributions were obtained. The dat a are described with a phenomenological approach based on a combination of a quasi-free model and a partial wave expansion for three-body reaction. The total cross section is found to be sigma(tot) = (2.89 +- 0.01(stat) +- 0.06(sys) +- 0.29(norm)) mu b. The contribution of the quasi-free processes (with the neutron being target or beam spectator) accounts for 38% of the total cross section and dominates the differential distributions in specific regions of the phase space. The remaining part of the cross section can be described within a partial wave decomposition indicating the significance of p-wave contributions in the final state.
The excitation function for the $pdrightarrow$ $d p pi^{0}$ reaction has been measured by WASA-at-COSY experiment with the aim of searching for $^{3}hspace{-0.03cm}mbox{He}$-$eta$ mesic nuclei. The measurement in the vicinity of $eta$ meson productio n was performed using a ramped proton beam. The data analysis and interpretation was carried out with the assumption that the $eta$-mesic Helium decays via the formation of an intermediate N$^{*}$(1535) resonance. No direct signal of the $eta$-mesic nucleus is observed in the excitation function. We determine a new improved upper limit for the total cross section for the bound state production and decay in the $pdrightarrow$ $(^{3}hspace{-0.03cm}mbox{He}$-$eta)_{bound} rightarrow$ $d p pi^{0}$ process. It varies between 13 nb to 24 nb for the bound state with width in the range $Gamma in (5,50)$ MeV.
We report on the experimental search for the bound state of an $eta$ meson and $^{3}hspace{-0.03cm}mbox{He}$ nucleus performed using the WASA-at-COSY detector setup. In order to search for the $eta$-mesic nucleus decay, the $pdrightarrow$ $^{3}hspace {-0.03cm}mbox{He} 2gamma$ and $pdrightarrow$ $^{3}hspace{-0.03cm}mbox{He} 6gamma$ channels have been analysed. These reactions manifest the direct decay of $eta$ meson bound in $^{3}hspace{-0.03cm}mbox{He}$ nucleus. This non-mesonic decay channel has been considered for the first time. When taking into account only statistical errors, the obtained excitation functions reveal a slight indication for a possible bound state signal corresponding to an $^3$He-$eta$ nucleus width $Gamma$ above 20 MeV and binding energy $B_s$ between 0 and 15 MeV. However, the determined cross sections are consistent with zero in the range of the systematic uncertainty. Therefore, as final result we estimate only the upper limit for the cross section of the $eta$-mesic $^{3}hspace{-0.03cm}mbox{He}$ nucleus formation followed by the $eta$ meson decay which varies between $2$ nb and $15$ nb depending on possible bound state parameters.
