Chiral theory of nucleons and pions in the presence of an external gravitational field
2020
We extend the standard second order effective chiral Lagrangian of pions and nucleons by considering the coupling to an external gravitational field. As an application we calculate one-loop corrections to the one-nucleon matrix element of the energy-momentum tensor to fourth order in chiral counting, and next-to-leading order tree-level amplitude of the pion-production in an external gravitational field. We discuss the relation of the obtained results to experimentally measurable observables. Our expressions for the chiral corrections to the nucleon gravitational form factors differ from those in the literature. That might require to revisit the chiral extrapolation of the lattice data on t…

B parameters of the complete set of matrix elements of delta B = 2 operators from the lattice
2001
We compute on the lattice the ``bag'' parameters of the five (Delta B = 2) operators of the supersymmetric basis, by combining their values determined in full QCD and in the static limit of HQET. The extrapolation of the QCD results from the accessible heavy-light meson masses to the B-meson mass is constrained by the static result. The matching of the corresponding results in HQET and in QCD is for the first time made at NLO accuracy in the MSbar(NDR) renormalization scheme. All results are obtained in the quenched approximation.
Demonstration of the event identification capabilities of the NEXT-White detector
2019
[EN] In experiments searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay, the possibility of identifying the two emitted electrons is a powerful tool in rejecting background events and therefore improving the overall sensitivity of the experiment. In this paper we present the first measurement of the efficiency of a cut based on the different event signatures of double and single electron tracks, using the data of the NEXT-White detector, the first detector of the NEXT experiment operating underground. Using a 228Th calibration source to produce signal-like and background-like events with energies near 1.6 MeV, a signal efficiency of 71.6 ± 1.5 stat ± 0.3 sys% for a background acceptance of 20.6 ± …
Sensitivity of the NEXT experiment to Xe-124 double electron capture
2021
[EN] Double electron capture by proton-rich nuclei is a second-order nuclear process analogous to double beta decay. Despite their similarities, the decay signature is quite di erent, potentially providing a new channel to measure the hypothesized neutrinoless mode of these decays. The Standard-Model-allowed two-neutrino double electron capture has been predicted for a number of isotopes, but only observed in 78Kr, 130Ba and, recently, 124Xe. The sensitivity to this decay establishes a benchmark for the ultimate experimental goal, namely the potential to discover also the lepton-number-violating neutrinoless version of this process. Here we report on the current sensitivity of the NEXT-Whit…

About the Reliability of Extrapolation of Nuclear Structure Data for r-process Calculations
2002
Gross decay properties are the nuclear part of the input for calculations of elemental abundances. They depend, sometimes very sensitively, on details of nuclear structure. Models for predictions of nuclear masses and shapes have to be used for isotopes very far from stability. The reliability of extrapolations far from experimentally reachable nuclei is, however, not always granted due to singularities in the nuclear landscape. We review data on the region of the neutron-rich isotopes near A = 100, which is a region of especially dramatic changes.
The relativistic mean-field model at large densities
1988
The extrapolation properties of the relativistic mean-field model are investigated in nuclear matter. The results of a recent relativistic Bethe-Brueckner-Gatdstone calculation are taken as ‘data”. Fits in a window of normal nuclear densities are extrapolated to large densities and compared with the ‘data’. We find large discrepancies which hint at an insufficiency of the model in its present parametrisation.
Search for the Rare Leptonic Decay B+→μ+νμ
2004
A search for the rare leptonic decay with data collected at the resonance by the BABAR experiment was carried out. The decay rate was sensitive to the product of the Cabibbo Kobayashi Maskawa matrix element (Vub and the B decay constant fb, which was propotional to the wave function for zero separation between the quarks. The data used in the analysis was collectd with BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring and the sample consisted of an integrity luminosity of 81.4 fb-1. The systematic uncertainty in the signal efficiency was evaluated which included the muon candidate selection and the reconstruction efficiency of the companion B.
