چکیده
The magnetic moment of the Z hyperon has been obtained from measurements of finestructure splittixgs of x-ray transitions in Z" exotic atoms. The use of targets consisting of sheets of Pb or immersed in liquid hydrogen, and of a tagging technique utilizirg the m emitted in the reaction K p Z 7t, resulted in improved x-ray signal-tonoise ratio by a factor of 15 over that in previous experiments. The present result is p(Z-) = (1.111+0.031+0.011)p „.

Measurements of the Magnetic Moment of the E + and E- Hyperons and of Hyperon Radiative Decays(*)
We have made a high-precision measurement of the magnetic moment of the Z + hyperon, using the precession of the spin in a conventional magnetic field. We have also made the first measurement of the magnetic moment of its antiparticle, the Z. In a separate experiment, we have demonstrated the precession of spin during channelling in a bent crystal, allowing a complementary measurement of the E ...
متن کاملKaon photoproduction on the nucleon : Contributions of kaon-hyperon final states to the magnetic moment of the nucleon
By using the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule and an isobaric model of kaon photoproduction, we calculate contributions of kaon-hyperon final states to the magnetic moment of the proton and the neutron. We find that the contributions are small. The approximation of σTT ′ by σT clearly overestimates the value of the GDH integral. We find a smaller upper bound for the contributions of kaon-hy...
متن کاملComparative Harmonic Loss Measurement of Grain Oriented and Non-oriented Magnetic Sheets Using a High Precision Single Sheet Tester
Abstract: Local flux may be distorted in many regions of core, although total flux is usually sinusoidal. When attempting to predict the loss distribution in materials operating under localized distorted flux conditions, which occur in machines and transformer cores, it is essential that proper account of the waveform be taken. Moreover for development of new magnetic materials and generation ...
