Studies of η^′ (ω) mesons with the Crystal Ball/TAPS setup at MAMI — •Patrik Adlarson for the A2 collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Johannes Gutenberg Universität, Mainz, Germany

Precision studies of light meson decays are used to investigate a wide range of topics related to fundamental aspects of hadron physics. In particular, η^′ decays allow for tests of such diverse topics as ππ scattering lengths, the SU(3) singlet-octet mixing angle, quark mass differences and light-by-light contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. Recently, a large statistics sample of η^′ (ω) mesons have been produced and collected with the Crystal Ball/TAPS setup at MAMI. An overview of the physics motivation, the experimental setup and preliminary results from the ongoing analyses are presented.
