Corrigendum to “Odd and even partial waves of ηπ− and η′π− in π−p → η(′)π−p at 191 GeV/c” [Phys. Lett. B 740 (2015) 303–311]
2020
Abstract In Fig. 5 on p. 311 of our Phys. Lett. B 740 (2015) 303 an adjustment by 180 ∘ is required for the phases with respect to the L = 2 , M = 1 wave, of the following waves: L = 1 , 3 , 5 with M = 1 , and L = 2 with M = 2 . After this correction (Fig. 5 (corrected) below), the extracted partial waves describe the angular distribution of the η ( ′ ) in the Gottfried-Jackson (GJ) frame, using Eq. (4) with implicit Condon-Shortley phase convention. The other results of our paper are not affected. The right-handed GJ coordinate system was defined by the z-axis pointing in the direction of the beam in the η ( ′ ) π − center-of-mass system and the y-axis pointing in the direction of p recoil…
Measurement of the polarization in νμ charged current interactions in the NOMAD experiment
2001
The Λ polarization in νμ charged current interactions has been measured in the NOMAD experiment. The event sample (8087 reconstructed Λ 's) is more than an order of magnitude larger than that of previous bubble chamber experiments, while the quality of event reconstruction is comparable. We observe negative polarization along the W -boson direction which is enhanced in the target fragmentation region: Px(xF 0)=−0.09±0.06(stat)±0.03(sys) . These results provide a test of different models describing the nucleon spin composition and the spin transfer mechanisms. A significant transverse polarization (in the direction orthogonal to the Λ production plane) has been observed for the first time in…
Peripheral nucleon-nucleon phase shifts and chiral symmetry
1997
Within the one-loop approximation of baryon chiral perturbation theory we calculate all one-pion and two-pion exchange contributions to the nucleon-nucleon interaction. In fact we construct the elastic NN-scattering amplitude up to and including third order in small momenta. The phase shifts with orbital angular momentum $L\geq2 $ and the mixing angles with $J\geq2$ are given parameterfree and thus allow for a detailed test of chiral symmetry in the two-nucleon system. We find that for the D-waves the $2\pi$-exchange corrections are too large as compared with empirical phase shifts, signaling the increasing importance of shorter range effects in lower partial waves. For higher partial waves…
Winkelverteilungen elastisch an Edelgas-Atomstrahlen gestreuter Elektronen; Spinpolarisation eines an Argon gestreuten 40 eV-Elektronenstrahls
1967
The angular distribution of electrons scattered elastically by rare-gas atomic beams (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe) has been investigated over the angular range from 20° to 155° and with electron energies between 5 eV and 1000 eV. The results are compared with theory. Only for energies above 300 eV the agreement is good. The angular dependence of polarization P(Θ) of electrons, elastically scattered by a beam of argon atoms, is measured in a double scattering experiment for an electron energy of 40 eV. Maximum degree of polarization measured isP=12.5% ± 2.5%.
CMB anisotropies: cosmic confusion and polarization
2001
Abstract Some physical effects producing Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies are briefly described. The CMB angular power spectrum is calculated -in appropriate cases- with the essential aim of estimating and comparing the effects produced by reionization and gravitational waves; thus a problem of Cosmic Confusion is pointed out. Accurate measurements of the CMB polarization could solve this problem in future. Some comments about the PLANCK mission —ESA project for anisotropy detection— are given.

The polarized double cell target of the SMC
1999
The polarized target of the Spin Muon Collaboration at CERN was used for deep inelastic muon scattering experiments during 1993-1996 with a polarized muon beam to investigate the spin structure of the nucleon. Most of the experiments were carried out with longitudinal target polarization and 190 GeV muons, and some were done with transverse polarization and 100 GeV muons. Protons as well as deuterons were polarized by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in three kinds of solid materials - butanol, ammonia, and deuterated butanol - with maximum degrees of polarization of 94%, 91% and 60%, respectively. Considerable attention was paid to the accuracies of the NMR polarization measurements and …

1966
The angular dependence of spin polarizationP(Θ) of electrons elastically scattered by a beam of mercury atoms is measured in a double scattering experiment for electron energies of 45±1 eV; 23±1 eV; 7±1 eV; and 3,5±1 eV. Maximum degree of polarization obtained isP(100°)=0,39±0,07; electron energy 7±1 eV; electron current 10−12–10−11 A.
Normal and transverse single tau polarization at the Z-peak
1994
Abstract We study normal (to the collision plane) and transverse (within the collision plane) single-τ polarization in τ pairs produced in e + e − unpolarized collisions at the Z -resonance. The transverse polarization component is sensitive to the anomalous weak-magnetic moment, whereas the normal polarization component is sensitive to a CP-violating weak-electric dipole moment. We show how these components of the single τ polarization are accessible from the angular distribution of its decay products. We define a CP violating asymmetry of the τ decay products which, with 10 7 Z ′s produced, provides a sensitivity of 2.3 × 10 −18 e ·cm for the weak-electric dipole moment.
Polarization corrections to single-particle energies studied within the energy-density-functional and quasiparticle random-phase approximation approa…
2014
Background: Models based on using perturbative polarization corrections and mean-field blocking approximation give conflicting results for masses of odd nuclei. Purpose: We systematically investigate the polarization and mean-field models, implemented within self-consistent approaches that use identical interactions and model spaces, to find reasons for the conflicts between them. Methods: For density-dependent interactions and with pairing correlations included, we derive and study links between the mean-field and polarization results obtained for energies of odd nuclei. We also identify and discuss differences between the polarization-correction and full particle-vibration-coupling (PVC) …
