Measurement of the positron longitudinal polarization in muon decay
1981
The longitudinal polarization of the ${e}^{+}$ from ${\ensuremath{\mu}}^{+}$ decay has been measured. The spin dependence of positron-electron (Bhabha) scattering and of annihilation in flight were used as the analyzing reactions. The combined statistical and systematic error was reduced by a factor of approximately 3 below that of any previous measurement. The longitudinal polarization was found to be 1.010\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.064 (statistical plus systematic error) and to be consistent with the prediction of the $V\ensuremath{-}A$ interaction.
Review of Particle Properties
2002
This biennial Review summarizes much of Particle Physics. Using data from previous editions, plus 2205 new measurements from 667 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We also summarize searches for hypothetical particles such as Higgs bosons, heavy neutrinos, and supersymmetric particles. All the particle properties and search limits are listed in Summary Tables. We also give numerous tables, figures, formulae, and reviews of topics such as the Standard Model, particle detectors, probability, and statistics. This edition features expanded coverage of CP violation in B mesons and of neutrino oscillations. For the fir…
