The goal of the DIRAC experiment at CERN (PS212) is to measure $\pi^+\pi^-$ atom lifetime with 10% precision. Such a measurement would yield precision 5% on value $S$-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering lengths combination $|a_0-a_2|$. Based part collected data we present first result lifetime, $\tau=[2.91 ^{+0.49}_{-0.62}]\times 10^{-15}$ s, and discuss major systematic errors. This corresponds $|a_0-a_2|=0.264 ^{+0.033}_{-0.020} m_{\pi}^{-1}$.

MCrAlY alloys (where M stands for Ni,Co or both) are commonly used as overlay protective coatings in gas turbine engine components against high temperature oxidation and corrosion. The effect of these is due to the formation a continuous thermally stable oxide layer on coating surface. In this work several types alloys, differing their elemental composition, have been deposited austenitic stainless steel by means laser cladding. microstructure characterized SEM-EDSand XRD. As expected,...
