Abstract
The possibility of producing and detecting at DAΦNE a new hydrogen isotope formed by a (K + e − ) bound system (Kaium) is addressed, considering a dedicated, and relatively simple experiment of short duration. If Kaium will be detected, it could in perspective pave the way for a series of highly sophisticated experiments focused on the precision measurement of several observables, as the K + − K − mass difference, strictly related to CPT invariance.
