Abstract: The PrimEx detector has been built for high precision measurement of the neutral pion lifetime via the Primakoff effect. PrimEx physics data have been collected during October 2004 run at Jefferson Lab. Detailed study of systematics performed during this year allowed to estimate systematic error more precise. The extracted preliminary result for the π0 radiative decay has 2.1% statistical and 1.6% systematic error.
