Abstract

The observed scaling violations of the nucleon structure functionF 2 and $$\bar q$$ have been analysed in the framework of perturbative QCD to determine the shape and magnitude of the gluon distribution. The data are in good agreement with leading order QCD, and the simultaneous use ofF 2 and $$\bar q$$ structure functions permits, for the first time, a reliable determination of the gluon structure function.

Abstract

The decay rate of $\klpgg$ has been measured with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. A total of 2558 $\klpgg$ candidates have been observed with a residual background of 3.2%. The branching ratio is determined to be $(1.36 \pm0.03_{(stat)} \pm0.03_{(syst)}\pm 0.03_{(norm)})\times10^{-6}$ and the vector coupling constant $a_v = -0.46 \pm0.03_{(stat)} \pm0.04_{(syst)}$. This result suggests that the CP-violation effects are dominating in the $\klpee$ decay. An upper limit for the $\klpgg$ decay rate in the two photon mass region $m_{\gamma\gamma}

Abstract

The semi-leptonic decay of the neutral K meson $K^{0}_{L} \to \pi^{\pm}e^{\mp}\nu (K_{e3})$, was used to study the strangeness-changing weak interaction of hadrons. A sample of 5.6 million reconstructed events recorded by the NA48 experiment was used to measure the Dalitz plot density. Admitting all possible Lorentz-covariant couplings, the form factors for vector $(f_{+}(q^{2}))$, scalar $(f_{S})$ and tensor $(f_{T})$ interactions were measured. The linear slope of the vector form factor $\lambda_{+} = 0.0284 \pm 0.0007 \pm 0.0013$ and values for the ratios $|f_{S}/f_{+}(0)|=0.015^{+0.007}_{-0.010} \pm 0.012$ and $|f_{T}/f_{+}(0)|=0.05^{+0.03}_{-0.04} \pm 0.03$ were obtained. The values for $f_{S}$ and for $f_{T}$ are consistent with zero. Assuming only vector-axial vector couplings, $\lambda_{+} = 0.02888 \pm 0.0004 \pm 0.0011$ and a good fit consistent with pure V-A couplings were obtained. Alternatively a fit to a dipole form factor yields a pole mass of $M = 859 \pm 18$ MeV, consistent with the $K^{*}(892)$ mass. The semileptonic decay of the neutral K meson, KL0→π±e∓ν ( Ke3 ), was used to study the strangeness-changing weak interaction of hadrons. A sample of 5.6 million reconstructed events recorded by the NA48 experiment was used to measure the Dalitz plot density. Admitting all possible Lorentz-covariant couplings, the form factors for vector (f+(q2)) , scalar ( fS ) and tensor ( fT ) interactions were measured. The linear slope of the vector form factor λ+=0.0284±0.0007±0.0013 and values for the ratios |fS/f+(0)|=0.015−0.010+0.007±0.012 and |fT/f+(0)|=0.05−0.04+0.03±0.03 were obtained. The values for fS and fT are consistent with zero. Assuming only vector–axial-vector couplings, λ+=0.0288±0.0004±0.0011 and a good fit consistent with pure V–A couplings were obtained. Alternatively, a fit to a dipole form factor yields a pole mass of M=859±18 MeV , consistent with the K*(892) mass. The semileptonic decay of the neutral K meson, KL -> pi e nu (Ke3), was used to study the strangeness-changing weak interaction of hadrons. A sample of 5.6 million reconstructed events recorded by the NA48 experiment was used to measure the Dalitz plot density. Admitting all possible Lorentz-covariant couplings, the form factors for vector (f_+(q^2)), scalar (f_S) and tensor (f_T) interactions were measured. The linear slope of the vector form factor lambda_+ = 0.0284+-0.0007+-0.0013 and values for the ratios |f_S/f_+(0)| = 0.015^{+0.007}_{-0.010}+-0.012 and |f_T/f_+(0)| = 0.05^{+0.03}_{-0.04}+-0.03 were obtained. The values for f_S and f_T are consistent with zero. Assuming only Vector-Axial vector couplings, lambda_+ = 0.0288+-0.0004+-0.0011 and a good fit consistent with pure V-A couplings were obtained. Alternatively, a fit to a dipole form factor yields a pole mass of M = 859+-18 MeV, consistent with the K^*(892) mass.

Abstract

In a preliminary version of the NA48 experiment at the CERN SPS, in which an iron-scintillator sandwich calorimeter was used as a photon detector, the ratio of K L → πμνγ and K L → πμν decays was measured. The branching ratio BR(K L →πμνγ, E γ ∗ ≥30 MeV )/(K L → πμν ) is found to be (2.08±0.17 +0.16 −0.21 )×10 −3 , where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. The result is in agreement with theoretical predictions.

Abstract

This Letter reports on a new high precision measurement of the form factors of the K L → π ± μ ∓ ν μ decay. The data sample of about 2.3 × 10 6 events was recorded in 1999 by the NA48 experiment at CERN. Studying the Dalitz plot density we measured a linear, λ + ′ = ( 20.5 ± 2.2 stat ± 2.4 syst ) × 10 −3 , and a quadratic, λ + ″ = ( 2.6 ± 0.9 stat ± 1.0 syst ) × 10 −3 term in the power expansion of the vector form factor. No evidence was found for a second order term for the scalar form factor; the linear slope was determined to be λ 0 = ( 9.5 ± 1.1 stat ± 0.8 syst ) × 10 −3 . Using a linear fit our results were: λ + = ( 26.7 ± 0.6 stat ± 0.8 syst ) × 10 −3 and λ 0 = ( 11.7 ± 0.7 stat ± 1.0 syst ) × 10 −3 . A pole fit of the form factors yields: m V = ( 905 ± 9 stat ± 17 syst ) MeV / c 2 and m S = ( 1400 ± 46 stat ± 53 syst ) MeV / c 2 .

Abstract

We present a measurement of the ratio of the decay rates Γ ( K L → π + π − ) / Γ ( K L → π ± e ∓ ν ) , denoted as Γ K 2 π / Γ K e 3 . The analysis is based on data taken during a dedicated run in 1999 by the NA48 experiment at the CERN SPS. Using a sample of 47 000 K 2 π and five million K e 3 decays, we find Γ K 2 π / Γ K e 3 = ( 4.835 ± 0.022 stat . ± 0.016 syst . ) × 10 −3 . From this we derive the branching ratio of the CP violating decay K L → π + π − and the CP violation parameter | η + − | . Excluding the CP conserving direct photon emission component K L → π + π − γ , we obtain the results BR ( K L → π + π − ) = ( 1.941 ± 0.019 ) × 10 −3 and | η + − | = ( 2.223 ± 0.012 ) × 10 −3 .

Abstract

The decay rate of the long-lived neutral K meson into the e + e − e + e − final state has been measured with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. Using data collected in 1998 and 1999, a total of 200 events has been observed with negligible background. This observation corresponds to a branching ratio of Br ( K L → e + e − e + e − ) = ( 3.30 ± 0.24 stat ± 0.23 syst ± 0.10 norm ) × 10 −8 .

Abstract

Using data taken during the year 2000 with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS, a search for the CP violating decay K S → 3 π 0 has been performed. From a fit to the lifetime distribution of about 4.9 million reconstructed K 0 / K ¯ 0 → 3 π 0 decays, the CP violating amplitude η 000 = A ( K S → 3 π 0 ) / A ( K L → 3 π 0 ) has been found to be Re ( η 000 ) = − 0.002 ± 0.011 ± 0.015 and Im ( η 000 ) = − 0.003 ± 0.013 ± 0.017 . This corresponds to an upper limit on the branching fraction of Br ( K S → 3 π 0 ) 7.4 × 10 −7 at 90% confidence level. The result is used to improve knowledge of Re ( e ) and the CPT violating quantity Im ( δ ) via the Bell–Steinberger relation.

Abstract

We present a new measurement of the branching ratio R of the decay K L → π ± e ∓ ν , denoted as K e 3 , relative to all charged K L decays with two tracks, based on data taken with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. We measure R = 0.4978 ± 0.0035 . From this we derive the K e 3 branching fraction and the weak coupling parameter | V u s | in the CKM matrix. We obtain | V u s | f + ( 0 ) = 0.2146 ± 0.0016 , where f + ( 0 ) is the vector form factor in the K e 3 decay.

Abstract

In data taken with the NA48 experiment at the CERN SPS in 1999, 730 candidates of the weak radiative hyperon decay Ξ0→Λγ have been found with an estimated background of 58±8 events. From these events the Ξ0→Λγ decay asymmetry has been determined to α(Ξ0→Λγ)=-0.78±0.18stat±0.06 syst, which is the first evidence of a decay asymmetry in Ξ 0→Λγ. The branching fraction of the decay has been measured to be Br(Ξ0→Λγ)=(1.16±0.05 stat±0.06syst)×10-3. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract

We present the first observation of the decay KS→π+π−e+e− based upon the data collected in 1998 by the NA48 experiment at CERN. We have identified a clean sample of 56 events with negligible background contamination. Using KL→π+π−π0D decays as normalization sample, the branching ratio is measured to be BR(KS→π+π−e+e−)=[4.5±0.7(stat)±0.4(syst)]×10−5. This result is in good agreement with the theoretical expectations from the mechanism of inner bremsstrahlung.

Abstract

The decay rate of the neutral K meson KL→e+e−γ has been measured with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. A total of 6864 events has been observed with an estimated background of 10 events. The branching ratio is Γ(KL→e+e−γ)/Γ(KL→all) = (1.06±0.02stat±0.02sys±0.04calc)×10−5. The parameter α K ∗ describing the relative strength of the two contributing amplitudes to this decay through intermediate pseudoscalar or vector mesons was measured to be α K ∗ =−0.36±0.06stat±0.02sys.

We present a comprehensive treatment of the precise determinations of the parameters Re({var_epsilon}{sup {prime}}/{var_epsilon}), {tau}{sub S}, {Delta}m, {phi}{sub +{minus}}, and {Delta}{phi} in the neutral kaon system with the Fermilab E731 detector. Together, these determinations allow accurate studies of both CP and CPT symmetry. Details of the detector and its performance and the data analysis are given. The extensive Monte Carlo simulation of the detector and comparison with data are also presented. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract

A prototype electromagnetic calorimeter containing 180 litres of liquid krypton has been tested in electron and muon beams at the CERN SPS. The main features of this detector are its active shower medium, a granularity of 2 cm with tower readout, and the use of the initial current readout technique with an effective shaping time of about 60 ns. An energy resolution for electrons of 4.1% √E[ GeV ] with a constant term of 0.4% and a noise contribution of 50 MeV has been achieved. The calorimeter has a spatial resolution of 4.5 mm √E[ GeV ] with a constant term of 0.3 mm and a time resolution of about 0.5 ns for energies larger than 10 GeV.

Abstract

With the E731 apparatus at Fermilab, we have simultaneously collected 6859 ${\mathit{K}}_{\mathit{L}}$ and ${\mathit{K}}_{\mathit{S}}$ decays into ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$\ensuremath{\gamma}. Using our sample of over 370 000 ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$ decays for normalization we have determined that the ratio \ensuremath{\Gamma}(${\mathit{K}}^{0}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$\ensuremath{\gamma})/\ensuremath{\Gamma}(${\mathit{K}}^{0}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$) is (23.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.7)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}3}$ for ${\mathit{K}}_{\mathit{L}}$ and (7.10\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.22)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}3}$ for ${\mathit{K}}_{\mathit{S}}$, for photon energies greater than 20 MeV in the kaon center of mass. After removing the inner-bremsstrahlung contribution, we find that the photon energy spectrum of the direct emission decay of the ${\mathit{K}}_{\mathit{L}}$ is consistent with the presence of a vector meson propagator in the form factor.

Abstract

Interference between ${\mathrm{K}}_{\mathrm{S}}$ and ${\mathrm{K}}_{\mathrm{L}}$ decays into the final state ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{+}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\pi}}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$\ensuremath{\gamma} has been observed in experiment 731 at Fermilab. By fitting the distribution of decays downstream of a regenerator, a new CP-violation parameter${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\eta}}}_{+\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\gamma}}$, analogous to ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\eta}}}_{+\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$, has been measured, with its magnitude equal to(2.15\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.26\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.20)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}3}$, and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\varphi}}}_{+\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\gamma}}$, the associated phase angle, equal to(72\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}23\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}17)\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}. Assuming that any difference between this fit value for ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\eta}}}_{+\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ and the previously measured value for${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\eta}}}_{+\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$ can be attributed to direct CP violation in this decay, a limit of|${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\epsilon}}}_{+\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{\ensuremath{'}}$|/\ensuremath{\epsilon}0.3 at the 90% confidence level has been made. \textcopyright{} 1993 The American Physical Society

Abstract

We have observed 729[plus minus]15 [ital K][sub [ital L]][r arrow][pi][sup [plus minus]][pi][sup 0][ital e[minus plus]][bar [nu]]([nu]) decays in the data set collected in the 1987--1988 run of Fermilab experiment E731. We found the [ital K][sub [ital e]4] branching ratio to be [5.16[plus minus]0.20(stat)[plus minus]0.22(sys)][times]10[sup [minus]5]. We also performed the first measurement of the form factors parametrizing the decay. Our branching ratio result agrees with a prediction using a vector-meson-exchange model. An interpretation of the data in terms of chiral perturbation theory implies a value [ital L][sub 3]=(3.4[plus minus]0.4)[times]10[sup [minus]3] in the O([ital p][sup 4]) chiral Lagrangian.

Abstract

Data collected in Fermilab experiment E731 was used to perform the first search for the decay K L → π 0 vv. This decay is dominated by short distance effects and is almost entirely direct CP violating within the standard model. Cuts were developed to reject the background processes Λ → nπ 0 and K L → π + e − γv. No candidate events were seen. We find BR (K L → π 0 vv) < 2.2.×10 − at the 90% confidence level

Abstract

A study of prompt neutrino events from 400 GeV protons on a beam-dump is presented. The ratio of electron- to muon-neutrino rates is 0.86±0.14, in agreement withe−μ universality. The anti-neutrino to neutrino flux ratio is $$\bar v_\mu /v_\mu = 0.81 \pm 0.19$$ . The absolute rates and distributions observed are shown to be in quantitative agreement with the known properties of charmedquark production in hadron collisions.

We report a value of -[3.3±1.1 (stat)±0.7(syst)]×10 -3 for the quadratic slope parameter h in the Dalitz plot of the K L →3π 0 decay. This result is obtained from a sample of 5.1×10 6 decays. The validity of the ΔI=1/2 rule in the quadratic term is investigated using this result. This is the first measurement of the 3 0 slope parameter, and also the most sensitive measurement of any of the quadratic slope parameters for the charged or neutral kaons

Abstract

The direct CP violation parameter Re(epsilon'/epsilon) has been measured from the decay rates of neutral kaons into two pions using the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. The 2001 running period was devoted to collecting additional data under varied conditions compared to earlier years (1997-99). The new data yield the result: Re(epsilon'/epsilon) = (13.7 +/- 3.1) times 10^{-4}. Combining this result with that published from the 1997, 98 and 99 data, an overall value of Re(epsilon'/epsilon) = (14.7 +/- 2.2) times 10^{-4} is obtained from the NA48 experiment., Comment: 19 pages, 5 figures, to be published in Physics Letters B

Abstract

New measurements of the $\eta$ and $K^0$ masses have been performed using decays to 3$\pi^0$ with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. Using symmetric decays to reduce systematic effects, the results $M(\eta) = 547.843\pm0.051$ MeV/c$^2$ and $M(K^0) = 497.625\pm0.031$ MeV/c$^2$ were obtained., Comment: 17 pages, 4 figures to be published in Physics Letters B

Abstract

A value of (-6.1 +- 0.9_{stat} +- 0.5_{syst})*10^{-3} is obtained for the quadratic slope parameter h in the K_L -> 3\pi^0 decay Dalitz plot at the NA48 experiment at the CERN SPS. The result is based on 14.7*10^6 fully reconstructed K_L -> 3\pi^0 -> 6\gamma decays. This is the most precise measurement of any of the Dalitz plot slope parameters in the charged and neutral kaon decays so far., Comment: 13 pages, 3 figures, 2 tables

Abstract

The NA48 collaboration is preparing a new experiment at CERN aiming to study CP violation in the $K^{0}-K^{0}$ system with an accuracy of $2 \times 10^{−4}$ in the parameter $\Re(\epsilon'/\epsilon)$. Decays in two $\pi^{0}$'s will be recorded by a quasi-homogeneous liquid krypton calorimeter. A liquid krypton calorimeter has been chosen to combine good energy, position and time resolution with precise charge calibration and long-term stability. The prototype calorimeter incorporating the final design of the electrode read-out structure is presented in this paper. An energy resolution of $\simeq 3.5$%/$\sqrt{E}$ with a constant term smaller than 0.5% has been obtained. The time resolution was found to be better than 300 ps above 15 GeV.

Abstract

Process-centred Software Engineering Environments (PSEE) are the most recent generation of environments supporting software development activities. Most of PSEE are based on mechanisms promoting enforcement and automation of process activities. In this kind of mechanisms the process models are prescribed in a detailed and complete way. But the experience shows that supporting processes is more concerned with the flexibility of guidance offered during the process performance than with enforcement of a collection of predefined process models. In this paper, we present a solution to support strategic processes in a PSEE by providing a flexible guidance during process enactment.

Abstract

The structure functions F 2 ( x , Q 2 ) and xF 3 ( x , Q 2 ) measured in high-energy neutrino charged-current interactions on nuclei are compared with QCD predictions. Solutions to the moment equations of QCD are found which are in good agreement with the data and yield simple parametrisations of the structure functions. For the scale parameter Λ we find Λ = 0.5 ± 0.2 GeV. The analysis also results in values for the width of the gluon distribution as a function of Q 2 . We find 〈 x 〉 gluons = 0.16 ± 0.03 for Q 2 = 10 GeV 2 .

Abstract

On the basis of 315 dimuon events of opposite sign for which the nature (and energy) of the incident neutrino is known, and the momenta and hadronic shower energy are measured, we find a) very similar production by neutrinos and antineutrinos, and therefore confirmation of the GIM model for semileptonic weak interactions, b) energy spectra, excitation functions, angular correlations and transverse momentum distributions which are in remarkable agreement with the hypothesis of charm production and decay, c) evidence against models for which the second muon has a heavy lepton as origin, d) evidence against “bottom” quark production by antineutrinos, e) the amount and the structure function for the strange quark-antiquark sea, and f) an approximate branching ratio, of 0.15 for the muonic decay of the semistable charmed meson.

Abstract

A new beam line and detector were constructed to increase statistical precision and greatly reduce systematic uncertainty on the ratio of the CP-nonconserving parameters epsilon'/epsilon. Major improve- ments are discussed together with a result from a first run: epsilon'/epsilon = 0.0032 +- 0.0028 (statistical) +- 0.0012 (systematic). The precision is better than earlier measurements yet the result is still consistent with the superweak mechanism (which predicts zero) and that due to Kobayashi and Maskawa. Significantly more data are being collected.

Abstract

In a search for very rare decays of the K + meson we observed the K + → μ + ν e + e − and K + →e + ν e + e − modes with branching ratios of (10±3) ×10 −7 and (2 +2 −2 )×10 −7 respectively. We also put new limits on a decay allowed by the alternate scheme of lepton conservation K + → π − μ + e + , on a decay with double charged weak current K + → π − e + e + and on other forbidden decays K + → μ − ν e + e + and K + → π + μ ± e ± .

Abstract

The authors report on the analysis of inclusive neutral current events produced in neutrino and antineutrino narrow band beams. One finds for incident neutrino energies in the range 12-200 GeV and for hadron energies above 12 GeV a neutral charged current cross-section ratio of R/sub nu /=0.293+or-0.010 for incident neutrinos, and R/sub anti nu /=0.35+or-0.03 for antineutrinos. These ratios are consistent with the Weinberg-Salam model, with sin/sup 2/ theta /sub w/=0.24+or-0.02. (6 refs).

Abstract

Neutrino and antineutrino total charged current cross sections on iron were measured in the 100, 160, and 200 GeV narrow band beams at the CERN SPS in the energy range 10 to 200 GeV. Assuming σ/E to be constant, the values corrected for non-isoscalarity are σv/E = (0.686 ± 0.019) * 10−38 cm2/ (GeV · nucleon) and σv/E = (0.339 ± 0.010) * 10−38 cm2/ (GeV·nucleon). Between 50 and 150 GeV no energy dependence of σ/E was observed within ±3% for neutrino and ±4% for antineutrino interactions.

Abstract

We report on results from a study of hadron-energy distributions for ν and ν inclusive neutral current interactions. There is no significant variation of the neutral to charged current total cross-section ratios R ν and R ν with neutrino energy. The space-time structure of neutral currents is dominated by V − A , with a significant admixture of V + A . The Weinberg-Salam model is in agreement with all data if sin 2 θ w =0.24±0.02.
