Radiative Neutron β-Decay in Effective Field Theory
We consider radiative β-decay of the neutron in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. Nucleon-structure effects not encoded in the weak coupling constants gA and gV are determined at next-to-leading order in the chiral expansion, and enter at the [Formula: see text]-level, making a sensitive test of the Dirac structure of the weak currents possible.
متن کاملNon-Relativistic Limit of Neutron Beta-Decay Cross-Section in the Presence of Strong Magnetic Field
One of the most important reactions of the URCA that lead to the cooling of a neutron star, is neutron beta-decay ( ). In this research, the energy spectra and wave functions of massive fermions taking into account the Anomalous Magnetic Moment (AMM) in the presence of a strong changed magnetic field are calculated. For this purpose, the Dirac-Pauli equation for charged and neutral fermions is ...
متن کاملPrecision Neutron Polarimetry for Neutron Beta Decay
The abBA collaboration is developing a new type of field-expansion spectrometer for a measurement of the three correlation coefficients a, A, and B and the shape parameter b. The measurement of A and B requires precision neutron polarimetry. We will polarize a pulsed cold neutron beam from the SNS using a (3)He neutron spin filter. The well-known polarizing cross section for n-(3)He has a 1/v d...
متن کاملRadiative Corrections to Muon and Neutron Decay
The corrections to muon decay due to electromagnetic interactions have been recalculated. Our results differ from those of Behrends, Finkelstein, and Sirlin, because those authors used an inconsistent method for handling the infrared divergences which arise separately in the real and virtual processes. The disagreement is especially significant near the end of the electron (positron) spectrum w...
متن کاملRadiative Leptonic B c Decays in Effective Field Theory
The recent discovery of the Bc meson by the CDF collaboration and proposed new experiments at Fermilab and CERN motivate new theoretical studies of the Bc system. Here we investigate the radiative leptonic decay Bc → γlν. This process is an important background to the annihilation process Bc → lν, which will be used to extract the Bc decay constant. We perform a modelindependent calculation, ba...
