Towards a Measurement of the ωπ Transition Form Factor

Two sets of experiments have been performed with the WASA detector at COSY. The intention is to compare the quality of the data between the pd→3He ω and pp→pp ω reactions, in the sense of a feasibility and background study for ω → π0e+e− decays. The aim of the physics program is to determine the tra...
