Abstract
The Laser Electron Photon Experiment at SPring-8 2 (LEPS2) beamline is a photon beam facility focused on hadron physics research, located in Japan. Utilizing backward Compton scattering, it produces a γ-ray beam from an 8 GeV electron storage ring shot by UV-laser light. This beamline specializes in high polarization, achieving up to 90% near the maximum beam energy. The facility aims to study exotic hadrons such as exotic nuclei and meson-baryon molecule candidates. The investigation focuses on the production of hadrons containing strange quarks, with an emphasis on exploring the properties of kaons in nuclei, the Λ(1405) resonance, and related phenomena. The LEPS2 solenoid spectrometer, equipped with detectors for charged and neutral particles, has been operational since 2021, and physics data collection has commenced. This article provides an update on the current status of the experiment.
