The study of the system at very low energies plays a key role for the understanding of the strong interaction between hadrons in the strangeness sector. At the DA¦µNE electron-positron collider of Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati we studied kaonic atoms with and , taking advantage of the low-energy charged kaons from m>¦µm>-mesons decaying nearly at rest. The SIDDHARTA experiment used X-ray spectroscopy of the kaonic atoms to determine the transition yields and the strong interaction induced shift and width of the lowest experimentally accessible level (1s for H and D and 2p for He). Shift and width are connected to the real and imaginary part of the scattering length. To disentangle the isospin dependent scattering lengths of the antikaon-nucleon interaction, measurements of and of are needed. We report here on an exploratory deuterium measurement, from which a limit for the yield of the K-series transitions was derived: and (CL 90 % ). Also, the upcoming SIDDHARTA-2 kaonic deuterium experiment is introduced.
