Description

The project of the Super C-Tau factory (SCTF) is under development now at BINP in Novosibirsk. This electron-positron collider is intended for experiments in the energy range from 2 to 6 GeV with a luminosity of 1035 cm-2s-1. The high luminosity will provide a wide physical program that includes many fundamental issues like a study of mixing in the D meson system, search for CP-violating effects in decays of charmed particles, and search for "new physics" in rare and Standard Model-forbidden decays of charmed particles and tau lepton. Other important fields including two photon physics is also presented in the researches plans.
