The BESIII detector, built at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider II (BEPC-II), is a powerful facility to study physics in the energy range up to 4.6 GeV, with a broad research program covering charmonium physics, D-physics, spectroscopy of light hadrons and tau-physics. BESIII has started to take data in 2008 and it has already collected a statistics of 226*10^6 J/Psi and 106*10^6 Psi'...

In order to fully understand strangeness production in
nucleon-nucleon collisions, it is crucial to obtain data with a
neutron...

Neutral kaons produced in correlated pairs at a phi-factory offer unique possibilities to perform fundamental tests of CPT invariance, as well as of the basic principles of quantum mechanics. The analysis of the
data collected by the KLOE experiment at DAFNE is still ongoing with the aim of improving previous results and limits on several parameters describing CPT violation and/or...

The WASA facility is a 4$\pi$ detector system, designed to study the hadronic production and the decays of light mesons. A high density pellet target combined with the high intensity beams of the Cooler Synchrotron COSY provide luminosities which allow studies of rare processes.
The WASA-at-COSY physics program focuses on the investigation of light meson decays with the aim of performing...

The KLOE experiment at the $\phi$ factory DA$\Phi$NE in Frascati
(near Rome) 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 particularly important to test the Standard
Model calculation for the (g-2) of the muon, where a long standing
3$\sigma$ discrepancy is...

Investigations of charge symmetry breaking become one of the most important topics for the WASA detector at COSY. One of the planned studies concentrates on the charge symmetry forbidden dd ->alphapi^0 reaction. Experimental results will be compared with Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChiPT) predictions gaining information on the up and down quarks mass difference.
First steps toward a...

Measurements on the mass of the eta-meson performed at different experimental facilities over the last decade have resulted in very precise results but differ by up to 0.5 MeV/c2. In order to clarify this situation a new high precision measurement of the dp --> 3He eta reaction was conducted at the COoler SYnchrotron - COSY - of the Forschungszentrum Juelich using the ANKE magnetic...
