We have measured the Balmer-series x-rays of kaonic He-4 atoms using novel large-area silicon drift x-ray detectors in order to study the low-energy k-nucleus strong interaction. The energy of the 3d ->-> 2p transition was determined to be 6467 3(stat) 2(syst) eV. The resulting strong-interaction energy-level shift is in agreement with theoretical calculations, thus eliminating a long-standing discrepancy between theory and experiment. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
