Determination of the neutron electric form factor in the D(e,e′n)p reaction and the influence of nuclear binding
1999
The electric form factor of the neutron GE,n has been determined at the Mainz Microtron MAMI at the low momentum transfer Q2= 0.15 (GeV/c)2 in a measurement of the recoil polarisation ratio Px/Pz in the quasifree reaction D(e,e′n)p. At this Q2 the influence of the nuclear binding is strong. A purely kinematical model is used to get some insight into the effect of the initial Fermi momentum distribution of the neutron. The influence of the final state interaction is determined quantitatively by a model of Arenhovel et al.. After the corresponding corrections a value of GE,n(0.15 (GeV/c)2) = 0.0481±0.0065stat±0.0053syst is obtained.
Measurement of the interference structure functionRLTfor the12C(e,e′p)reaction in the quasielastic region
1998
The coincidence cross section and the interference structure function, ${R}_{\mathrm{LT}},$ were measured for the ${}^{12}\mathrm{C}{(e,e}^{\ensuremath{'}}p){}^{11}\mathrm{B}$ reaction at quasielastic kinematics and central momentum transfer of $|\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{q}|=400\mathrm{M}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{V}/\mathrm{c}.$ The measurement was at an opening angle of ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\mathrm{pq}}=11\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{},$ covering a range in missing energy of ${E}_{m}=0$ to 65 MeV. The ${R}_{\mathrm{LT}}$ structure function is found to be consistent with zero for ${E}_{m}g50\mathrm{MeV},$ confirming an earlier study which indicated that ${R}_{L}$ vanishes in this…
Measurement of theγγ*→ηandγγ*→η′transition form factors
2011
We study the reactions e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} e{sup +}e{sup -} {eta}{sup (/)} in the single-tag mode and measure the {gamma}{gamma}* {yields} {eta}{sup (/)} transition form factors in the momentum transfer range from 4 to 40 GeV{sup 2}. The analysis is based on 469 fb{sup -1} of integrated luminosity collected at PEP-II with the BABAR detector at e{sup +}e{sup -} center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV.
Analysis of theD+→K−π+e+νedecay channel
2011
Using 347.5 fb^(-1) of data recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II electron-positron collider, 244×10^3 signal events for the D^+ → K^-π^+e^+ν_e decay channel are analyzed. This decay mode is dominated by the K ^*(892)^0 contribution. We determine the K ^*(892)^0 parameters: m_(K^*(892)^0)=(895.4±0.2±0.2) MeV/c^2, Γ_(K^*(892)^0)=(46.5±0.3±0.2) MeV/c^2, and the Blatt-Weisskopf parameter r_(BW) =2.1±0.5±0.5 (GeV/c)^-1, where the first uncertainty comes from statistics and the second from systematic uncertainties. We also measure the parameters defining the corresponding hadronic form factors at q^2 = 0 (r_V = ^(V(0))/_(A1(0)) = 1.463 ± 0.017 ± 0.031, r_2 = _(A1(0)) ^(A2(0))= 0.801±0…
Measurements of theB→D*form factors using the decayB¯0→D*+e−ν¯e
2006
We measure the dependence of (B) over bar (0)-> D(*+)e(-)(B) over bar (e) on the decay angles and momentum transfer. The data sample consists of similar to 86x10(6) B (B) over bar -pairs accumulated on the Upsilon(4S) resonance by the BABAR detector at the asymmetric e(+)e(-) collider PEP-II. We specify the three form factors by two ratios R-1 and R-2, and by a single parameter rho(2) characterizing the polynomial representing h(A1), the function which describes the momentum-transfer dependence of the form factor A(1). We determine R-1, R-2, and rho(2) using an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to the full decay distribution. The results are R-1=1.396 +/- 0.060 +/- 0.035 +/- 0.027, R-2=0.885 …
Tau spin correlations and the anomalous magnetic moment
2009
We show that the precise determination of the Tau magnetic properties is possible in the next generation accelerators, specially at B/Flavour factories. We define spin correlation observables suitable to extract the real part of the magnetic form factor that, for the first time, will allow to test the standard model-QED predictions. In particular, the predicted QED-dependence with both the momentum transfer and the lepton mass can be precisely measured. Until now, the most stringent bounds on the $\tau$ magnetic moment $a_\tau$ come from LEP data with strong assumptions on the physics involved on the observed process. In this paper, we find three different combinations of spin correlations …

The scalar pion form factor in two-flavor lattice QCD
2013
We calculate the scalar form factor of the pion using two dynamical flavors of non-perturbatively $\mathcal{O}(a)$-improved Wilson fermions, including both the connected and the disconnected contribution to the relevant correlation functions. We employ the calculation of all-to-all propagators using stochastic sources and a generalized hopping parameter expansion. From the form factor data at vanishing momentum transfer, $Q^2=0$, and two non-vanishing $Q^2$ we obtain an estimate for the scalar radius $\left^\pi_{_{\rm S}}$ of the pion at one value of the lattice spacing and for five different pion masses. Using Chiral Perturbation Theory at next-to-leading order, we find $\left^\pi_{_{\rm S…
The Generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn Integral and the Spin Structure of the Nucleon
1998
The spin structure functions g1 and g2 have been calculated in the resonance region and for small and intermediate momentum transfer. The calculation is based on a gauge-invariant and unitary model for one-pion photo- and electroproduction. The predictions of the model agree with the asymmetries and the spin sturcture functions recently measured at SLAC, and the first moments of the calculated spin structure functions fullfil the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn and Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rules within an error of typically 5-10 %.
Backward electroproduction ofπ0mesons on protons in the region of nucleon resonances at four momentum transfer squaredQ2=1.0GeV2
2004
Exclusive electroproduction of pi{sup 0} mesons on protons in the backward hemisphere has been studied at Q2 = 1.0 GeV2 by detecting protons in the forward direction in coincidence with scattered electrons from the 4 GeV electron beam in Jefferson Lab's Hall A. The data span the range of the total (gamma*p) center-of-mass energy W from the pion production threshold to W = 2.0 GeV. The differential cross sections sigma{sub T} + epsilon sigma{sub L}, sigma{sub TL}, and sigma{sub TT} were separated from the azimuthal distribution and are presented together with the MAID and SAID parameterizations.
