| Abstract: | Two e+e- machines, VEPP-4M and VEPP2000 are operating at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics in Novosibirsk, Russia. The latest results on psi mesons from the KEDR detector VEPP-4M will be reported. Two detectors, SND and CMD3, are currently taking data at the VEPP2000 collider. The round beam approach allows a significant increase in machine luminosity at c.m. energies up to 2 GeV. The data collected up to now in the 1-2 GeV energy range are comparable to, or better than, those obtained by B-factories via ISR. Preliminary results on a number of multi-hadron final states from these two detectors will be reported. At the moment, VEPP2000 is scanning the region below 1 GeV to get a new precision measurement of the e+e- -> pi+pi- cross section. |
| Speaker: | Evgeni Solodov - BINP
 Professor Solodov is attached to Novosibirsk State University and the Budker Institute for Nuclear Physics. He has long been an integral part of the e+e- collider program at BINP, participating in the CMD, CMD-2 and CMD-3 experiments at the VEPP-2M and VEPP2000 colliders. In addition, he was involved with the early detector/technology exchanges between BINP and SLAC, and has been a member of the SLD, g-2 and BaBar collaborations.
