## A Sacks real out of nowhere.(English)Zbl 1187.03040

The authors investigate proper countable support forcing iterations where all the iterands add no new reals (NNR). An example of Jensen’s shows that the limit can add a new real. It is known (Shelah) that the added-in-the-limit real must be bounded by a real in the ground model; it cannot be a Cohen, random, Laver or Mathias real. But it can be a Sacks real. For the authors prove the following: There is an iteration $$(P_n,Q_n)_{n<\omega}$$ such that each $$Q_n$$ is forced to be proper and NNR and such that the countable support limit $$P_{\omega}$$ adds a Sacks real. Moreover, $$P_{\omega}$$ is equivalent to $$S\ast P'$$, where $$S$$ is Sacks forcing and $$P'$$ is NNR.
