KEK PS-E549 experiment• Further study of S0 state in the 4He(K-
stop, p) reaction
• Search for other kind of strange tribaryon in the 4He(K-
stop, n)
(2) Inclusive spectroscopy of S0
(1) Determination width with high resolution

Now the resolution is comparable with E471 result. But, TOF analysis is still progressing.
So, the resolution will be more improved.
