N ov 2 00 3 A new evaluation of the pion weak form factors
We have used the PIBETA large acceptance detector for a precise measurement of the π + → e + νγ radiative decay at rest, with broad phase space coverage. Using the CVC value for the pion vector form factor, F V = 0.0259(5), we have obtained a new value of the pion axial-vector form factor γ = F A /F V = 0.429(14). However, significant deviations from the SM predictions are evident in our data. ...
متن کاملProbing the Standard Model via rare pion and muon decays
The PIBETA collaboration has used a non-magnetic pure CsI calorimeter operating at the Paul Scherrer Institute to collect the world’s largest sample of rare pion and muon decays. We have extracted the absolute π → πeν decay branching ratio with the 0.55% total uncertainty. The π → eνγ data set was used to extract weak axial and vector form factors FA and FV , yielding a significant improvement ...

متن کاملThe automatic gain-matching in the PIBETA CsI calorimeter
Segmented electromagnetic calorimeters are used to determine both the total energy and direction (momentum components) of charged particles and photons. A trade off is involved in selecting the degree of segmentation of the calorimeter as the spatial and energy resolutions are affected differently. Increased number of individual detectors reduces accidental particle pile-up per detector but int...
