Discovering and Studying Bileptons with e-e- Collisions
1997
We analyze the prospects for discovering and unraveling the nature of doubly-charged bileptons at a linear collider of the next generation running in its electron-electron colliding mode. We stress the importance of initial state radiation, beam spread and polarization, and compute the discovery bounds. The gauge nature of vector bileptons can be determined by studying hard photon emission.
The COMPASS experiment at CERN
1998
Abstract The recently approved COMPASS experiment attempts a measurement of the gluon polarization around η ⋍ 0.1 with a precision of δ(Δ g / g ) ⋍ 0.1. The experiment uses open charm muo-production and large PT hadron pairs to tag the photon-gluon fusion process. COMPASS will also cover a rich spin-physics program in polarized DIS.
Spin asymmetries for events with highpThadrons in DIS and an evaluation of the gluon polarization
2004
We present a measurement of the longitudinal spin cross section asymmetry for deep-inelastic muon-nucleon interactions with two high transverse momentum hadrons in the final state. Two methods of event classification are used to increase the contribution of the photon-gluon fusion process to above 30%. The most effective one, based on a neural network approach, provides the asymmetries A(p)lN(-->)lhhX=0.030+/-0.057(stat)+/-0.010(syst) and A(d)lN(-->)lhhX=0.070+/-0.076(stat)+/-0.010(syst). From these values we derive an averaged gluon polarization DeltaG/G=-0.20+/-0.28(stat)+/-0.10(syst) at an average fraction of nucleon momentum carried by gluons =0.07.
Mechanism for the double-spin asymmetry in electromagnetic rho production at HERMES
2001
We calculate the contribution of meson and pomeron exchanges to the double-spin asymmetry in $\rho$-meson electromagnetic production at HERMES energies. We show that the observed double-spin asymmetries, which are large, can be explained by the interference between the natural parity $f_2$-secondary Reggeon and the unnatural parity anomalous $f_1$ exchanges.
Measurement of the branching fraction, polarization, andCPasymmetries inB0→ρ0ρ0decay, and implications for the CKM angleα
2008
We study B^0→ρ^0ρ^0 decays in a sample of 465×10^6 Υ(4S)→BB events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider located at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). We measure the branching fraction B=(0.92±0.32±0.14)×10^(-6) and longitudinal polarization fraction f_L=0.75_(-0.14)^(+0.11)±0.05, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The evidence for the B^0→ρ^0ρ^0 signal has a significance of 3.1 standard deviations, including systematic uncertainties. We investigate the proper-time dependence of the longitudinal component in the decay and measure the CP-violating coefficients S_L^(00)=(0.3±0.7±0.2) and C_L^(00)=(0.…
Initial State Radiation Measurements at BESIII
2019
Precision measurements of the hadronic cross sections e+ e−→ π+ π− , π+π−π0, π+π−2π0, ωπ0 and π+π−3π0 are performed at the BESIII experiment located in Beijing, China. These cross section measurements are needed as input for the Standard Model prediction of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, (g − 2)µ.The initial state radiation method is used to access the energy regions of interest for (g − 2)µ. Our results will improve the precision of the Standard Model prediction of (g − 2)µ .
Space-like transition form factors from BESIII
2018
Abstract The anomalous magnetic momentum of muon, a μ , has been measured in experiment and calculated in theory with a precision up to ∼0.5 ppm. But there is a long standing 3 to 4 standard deviations between these two accurate values. The dominant contribution to the uncertainty in the theoretical calculation comes from the hadroninc contribution, including contributions from the hadronic vacuum polarization and the hadronic light-by-light. The meson transition form factors measured in two photon process at BESIII can be used as input or constrain for the calculation of the hadronic light-by-light contribution to a μ . Recent experimental activities, including the measurements of the tran…
LAB observables for the muon polarization in K+->pi(+)mu(+)mu(-)
1999
We analyse the muon longitudinal polarization asymmetry \Delta_long in the decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \mu^+ mu^-. It is stressed that, since the muon helicities are not Lorentz-invariant quantities, the magnitude of \Delta_long depends in general on the reference frame. We consider the muon helicities in the LAB system, and study the sensitivity of the longitudinal polarization asymmetry to the flavour-mixing parameters in the Standard Model for stopped and in-flight decaying K^+. A similar analysis is carried out for the decay K_L --> \mu^+ \mu^-. We find that in both cases the asymmetry is diluted when increasing the energy of the decaying kaons.
Neutral current couplings of higher generations
1979
Abstract We show that longitudinal polarization of the outgoing lepton in e + e − →μ + (τ + )μ − (τ − ) is expected at the energies of a vector meson resonance (Ψ, ϒ, T, …). On the basis of the standard SU(2) × U(1) theory, this parity violating observable is already appreciable (∼3%) for the ϒ, and it becomes ∼9% for a T at 30 GeV.
Nucleon polarization in exclusive deuteron electrodisintegration with polarized electrons and a polarized target
1995
Nucleon polarization in exclusive electrodisintegration of the deuteron using a polarized beam and an oriented target is systematically investigated in a nonrelativistic framework but with lowest order relativistic contributions to the one-body current including the kinematic part of the wave function boost. The structure functions and the asymmetries corresponding to the various nucleon polarization components are studied with respect to their sensitivity to the potential model, to subnuclear degrees of freedom, and to relativistic effects in different kinematical regions. Furthermore, a few new observables are found which are very sensitive to the neutron electric form factor ${\mathit{G}…
