Outline Outline 1) the FINUDA experiment
– the physics program– the apparatus
2) the results– hypernuclear spectroscopy– search for neutron-rich hypernuclei– hypernucleus (rare) decays

Summary Summary First data taking period successfully carried out (30 × 106 events on tape)
Preliminary and partial results on spectroscopyare competitive with world published data
Experimental upper limit for the NRH production:✔ better than published one for Λ12Be✔ measured for the first time for Λ6H and Λ7H
First observation ofΛ4He non mesonic (rare) decay

FINUDA detectors performancesFINUDA detectors performances❖ s.c. solenoid: B = 1.0 T; field homogeneity within 2%
❖ interaction/target region: K+/K- identification, hypernucleus production and detection
❖ tracking devices: measurement of trajectoriesand momenta of charged particles (∆p/p 3.5‰)
