Precise measurement of the depolarization ratio from photoacoustic Raman spectroscopy
A new method for the accurate determination of the Raman depolarization ratio is reported with an improved setup for photoacoustic Raman spectroscopy (PARS). The precise measurement is achieved by measuring the dependence of the acoustic signal intensity on the cross-angle between the polarizations of two incident laser beams. We demonstrate this sensitive and simple method with several gaseous...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Dalitz-decay branching ratio of the π
The ratio B = Γ (π → eeγ)/Γ (π → γγ) is measured by comparing the production rates of the π in the two decay channels. The analysis is based on approximately four million hadronic decays of the Z boson recorded by the ALEPH detector in the years 1991 to 1995. The value of B is determined to be (1.140 ± 0.041)%. A recalculation of the Particle Data Group world average gives rise to a slightly im...
متن کاملImplications of a Precise Measurement of the 2 Width on the Spontaneous Breaking of Global Symmetries
We study global symmetries which are spontaneously broken by Higgs non singlets. In most cases, there is a significant contribution to the invisible decay width of the 2 boson. The recent measurement of this quantity by the MARK II collaboration excludes, in a model independent way, spontaneous breaking due to almost all scalars with hypercharge larger than or equal to 1.
متن کاملA Precision Measurement of the η Radiative Decay Width via the Primakoff Effect
We propose to perform a measurement of the η → γγ decay width at a 3% precision via the Primakoff effect in Hall D with the GlueX standard setup. This experiment will not only resolve a long standing puzzle of the experimental discrepancy between the Primakoff and collider measurement results, but will also significantly reduce the overall error bar on this important quantity, resulting in a di...
متن کاملUpdate on A Precision Measurement of the η Radiative Decay Width via the Primakoff Effect
The proposal PR12-10-011 had been approved by PAC35 in January, 2010 to perform a precision measurement of the η → γγ decay width via the Primakoff effect in Hall D with the GlueX experimental setup. The decay width will be extracted from the measured differential cross sections at forward angles on two light targets, proton and He using a 11.5 GeV tagged photon beam. This result will not only ...
