Abstract

A new search for decays of heavy isosinglet neutrinos produced by neutral-current neutrino interactions in the CERN wide-band neutrino beam has been conducted by the CHARM-II Collaboration. We searched for heavy neutrinos created by scattering muon neutrinos on nucleons and decaying into μ + μ − ν μ . Production and decay of heavy neutrinos would appear as double events in the detector. Each double event candidate was tested wheather the measured quantities are compatible with the kinematics of this process. No event passed this test. The analysis is based on 2 × 10 7 neutral-current neutrino events collected from 1987–1991. The experiment is sensitive to heavy neutrinos in the mass range 0.3–2.4 GeV/ c 2 . The best limit for the mixing parameter is | U μi | 2 −5 for a mass around 2 GeV/ c 2 . The analysis improve order of magnitude previous results derived from wide-band neutrino beam exposures of the CHARM detector.

Abstract

We report new constraints on the existence of additional Z bosons derived from neutrino-electron scattering data. The analysis is based on data taken by the CHARM II Collaboration during five years of exposure of the detector to the wide band neutrino beam at CERN. The limits on the mass of these new particles are evaluated in the framework of E 6 superstring-inspired theories and Left-Right symmetric models. Limits on the so-called Z 1 are also reported.

Abstract

The fine granularity of the CHARM-II detector has been exploited to search, in the CERN-SPS wide band neutrino beam, for quasi-elastic ντ interactions followed by the decay τ → πντ. Since the sampling thickness of the target calorimeter corresponds to ∼ 1 9 of an interaction length, these events appear in the detector as a single track followed by a hadronic shower. The study of the “single pion” events is used to set limits on the νμ → ντ oscillation parameters. The maximum sensitivity to the mixing angle θ is reached for Δm2 = 50 eV2 allowing to exclude values of sin22θ greater than 6.4 × 10−3 at 90% CL.

Abstract

We report our final results from the analysis of the full high statistics sample of events of the reaction \imd\,\, collected with the \CHARMII{} detector in the CERN wide-band neutrino beam during the years 1988 to~1991. From a signal of 15,758 \pm 324 inverse muon decay events we derived, in the Born approximation, a value of (16.51 \pm 0.93) \times 10^{-42} \unit{cm}^2 \unit{GeV}^{-1} for the asymptotic cross section slope \sigma/E_\nu, in good agreement with the Standard Model prediction of 17.23 \times 10^{-42} \unit{cm}^2 \unit{GeV}^{-1}. The result constrains the scalar coupling of the electron and the muon to |\gLL{S}|^2 < 0.475\ \rm{at}\ 90\%\ \rm{CL}.

Abstract

We report new bounds on electromagnetic properties of the muon neutrino obtained from a study of neutrino-electron scattering. The results are based on the analysis of differential cross section data collected with the CHARM II detector. The 90% C.L. limit on the magnetic moment of the muon-neutrino mu(nu mu) < 3 . 10(-9) mu(B) confirms limits obtained at much lower energies. The limit on the anomalous charge radius of the muon neutrino \[r(2)]anom\ < 6.0 . 10(-33) cm(2) improves earlier results by nearly a factor three.

Abstract

A search for upsilon(mu) --> upsilon(e) and ($) over bar upsilon(mu) --> ($) over bar upsilon(e) oscillations has been carried out with the CHARM LI detector exposed to the CERN wide band neutrino beam. The data were collected over five years, alternating beams mainly composed of muon-neutrinos and muon-antineutrinos. The number of interactions of upsilon(e) and ($) over bar upsilon(e) observed is comparable with the number of events expected from flux calculations. For large squared mass differences the upper limits obtained on the mixing angle are sin(2)2 theta < 9.4.10(-3) for upsilon(mu) oscillating to upsilon(e) and sin(2)2 theta < 4.8.10(-3) for ($) over bar upsilon(mu) to ($) over bar upsilon(e) at the 90% confidence level. Combining neutrino and antineutrino data the upper limit is 5.6.10(-3).

Abstract

New results on inverse muon decay and coherent charged pion production by neutrinos are presented. The data come from the CHARM-II neutrino detector operated at the CERN wide-band neutrino beam. High-statistics data samples of 14500 inverse muon decay events and 3500 νμe elastic scattering events allow the determination of the electroweak parameters from the ratio of the cross-sections of neutral-to-charged-current neutrino electron scattering. The best fit values of the electroweak mixing angle sin 2 Ω w and the relative coupling strength ϱ of neutral and charged current are: sin 2 Ω w = 0.237 ± 0.014 and ϱ = 0.987 ± 0.042 . In the second topic, coherent single charged pion production was measured in neutrino and antineutrino beams. The measured cross-sections, averaged over the wide-band beam spectra and the glass target nuclei composition, are: σ(νμA → μ−π+A) = (51 ± 10) × 10−40 cm2 nucleus and σ( ν μ A → μ + π − A) = (43 ± 9) × 10 −40 cm 2 nucleus. The energy dependence shows the expected flattering of the cross-sections at high energy.

Abstract

We are reporting on a determination of neutral current coupling constants from a study of differential cross sections of muon-(anti)neutrino electron scattering. The results were obtained with the CHARM-II detector which was exposed to the CERN wide band neutrino beam in the years 1987 to 1991. A total of about 3000 ve and 3000 v e scattering events were observed. We present a preliminary value of sin2φw determined with the ratio of neutrino and antineutrino electron scattering cross-sections, based on the full data sample, and we give a determination of the effective vector and axial-vector neutral current coupling constants and the first measurement of the shape of the y-distributions based on 80% of the total statistics.

Abstract

We report on a measurement of coherent single charged pion production in neutrino-nucleus scattering. The analysis is based on data taken with the CHARM II detector in beams of muon-neutrinos and -antineutrinos. The event numbers amount to N(μ−π) = 748 and N(μ+π) = 631. Cross sections and their dependence on the neutrino energy are determined. The results are in agreement with the predictions of models based on the PCAC hypothesis.

Abstract

The neutrino detector CHARM-II at CERN, consisting of a large target calorimeter equipped with streamer tubes and a muon spectrometer, has been exposed to a test beam of electrons, pions and muons with momenta between 2 and 60 GeV/c in order to study the digital response of the streamer tubes, the analog response of the pickup strips and the momentum resolution of the muon spectrometer. Methods have been developed to carry the calibration results in space from the impact point of the test beam to the bulk of the detector and in time from the test beam period to all the data taking periods between 1987 and 1991, The number of hits along muon tracks was used to parametrize the dependence on fluctuations of temperature, tube voltage and gas composition. Curves and formulae are presented showing the energy response and the energy resolution for the different beam particles. The test beam data have been used to optimize and calibrate algorithms for the kinematical reconstruction of electron showers and for their extraction from the vast background of hadronic showers.

Abstract

We report on a study of the differential cross section dσ/dy for the processes of elastic νμ- and ν μ - electron scattering. The data on which this analysis is based were recorded between 1987 and 1990 with the CHARM II detector in the wide band neutrino beam at the CERN-SPS. For the first time the shapes of these y-distributions have been determined in a model-independent way. A fit to the data yields for the squares of the neutral coupling constants the ratio gR2/gL2=0.60 ± 0.19 (stat.) ± 0.09 (syst.).

Abstract

We are reporting an improved determination of the electroweak mixing angle sin2Θw from the ratio of νμe to ν μ e scattering cross sections. The CHARM II detector was exposed to neutrino and antineutrino wide band beams at the 450 GeV CERN SPS. Including new data collected in 1989 we have obtained 1316 ± 56 νμe and 1453 ± 62 ν μ e events. From the ratio of the visible cross sections we determined sin2Θ0=0.239 ± 0.009(stat) ± 0.007(syst) without radiative corrections and g V e g A e =0.047 ± 0.046 . Combining this last result with recent results on gAe at LEP we obtain gVe= −0.023 ± 0.023.

Abstract

The CHARM II Collaboration is building a massive, fine-grained and low-density detector for the study of neutrino-electron scattering. Its target calorimeter consists of 441 detector planes with 155 232 plastic streamer tubes with digital readout of the wires and analog readout of external pickup strips. At the time of this report, about 25% of the calorimeter planes were equipped with electronics. Results on the performance of these tubes are presented as obtained with cosmic-rays and with electron and pion beams. We have also investigated the use of water vapour as an additive to the gas to suppress coating of the anode wires. The use of water would be of particular importance when using the tubes in a high-rate environment.

Abstract

A fast and effective algorithm for electromagnetic and hadronic shower separation has been developed for the digital sampling calorimeter of the CHARM II experiment. It is based on a generalization of the minimal spanning tree concept and can be easily applied to other existing calorimeters. In this particular application, which requires the highest efficiency for retaining electromagnetic showers, one gets, for 99% efficiency, a rejection factor of the order of 100 for hadronic showers.

Abstract

We report on experimental results obtained with the neutrino target calorimeter of the CHARM II detector. The experiment is being performed at CERN and its aim is to measure sin2θw, the electroweak mixing parameter, via the study of neutrino-electron scattering. The detector, installed on the SPS neutrino wide-band beam line, consists of a glass calorimeter instrumented with plastic streamer tubes and scintillation counters, and of a muon spectrometer. The performance of the calorimeter has been explored during a test run with electron and pion beams. Results concerning the detector response, the energy and angular resolution, and the e π separation are presented here.

Abstract

We are reporting on a new determination of sin2ϑw from the ratio of v μ e to v e scattering cross sections. A new detector designed for this purpose was exposed tothe Wide Band Neutrino Beamof the 450 GeV (CERN SPS. An analysis of data taken in 1987 and 1988 is presented based on 762 vμe and 1017 v e events. From the ratio of σ( v μ e ) to σ( v μ e ) we determined sin2ϑw=0.233±0.012 (stat) ± 0.008 (syst) without radiative correction. With radiative correction for mt=mH=100 GeV we find sin2ϑw=0.232±0.012(stat)±0.008(syst).

Abstract

The results of a leading-order QCD analysis of neutrino-induced charm production are presented. They are based on a sample of 4111 $\nu_\mu$ - and 871 $\bar \nu_\mu$ -induced opposite-sign dimuon events with $E_{\mu 1},E_{\mu 2} > 6{\rm GeV}$ , $35 < E_{\nu} < 290{\rm GeV}$ and $Q^2> 5.5\,{\rm GeV^2}$ , observed in the CHARM II detector exposed to the CERN wide band neutrino and antineutrino beams. The analysis yields the value of the charm quark mass $m_c=1.79\pm0.38\,{\rm GeV}/c^2$ and the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cd}|=0.219\pm0.016$ . The strange quark content of the nucleon is found to be suppressed with respect to non-strange sea quarks by a factor $\kappa =0.39\pm0.09$ .

Abstract

The fine granularity of the CHARM-II detector has been exploited to search, in the CERN-SPS wide band neutrino beam, for quasi-elastic nu(tau) interactions followed by the decay tau --> pinu(tau). Since the sampling thickness of the target calorimeter corresponds to approximately 1/9 of an interaction length, these events appear in the detector as a single track followed by a hadronic shower. The study of the ''single pion'' events is used to set limits on the nu(mu) --> nu(tau) oscillation parameters. The maximum sensitivity to the mixing angle theta is reached for DELTAm2 = 50 eV2 allowing to exclude values of sin2 20 greater than 6.4 x 10(-3) at 90% CL.

Abstract

We report on determinations of the neutral current coupling constants of the electron from the study of muon neutrino and antineutrino scattering off electrons. The results were obtained with the CHARM II detector which was exposed to the CERN wide band neutrino beam during the years 1987 to 1991. We present the determination of g V and g A from the measurement of νμ e and ν̄μ e cross sections with 80% of the data and a preliminary result for sin2θ w from the ratio of νμ e and v̄μ e cross sections, using the full data sample. We furthermore give results from the comparison of neutrino electron scattering with inverse muon decay and present the first measurement of the y‐distributions for νμ e and ν̄μ e scattering. The agreement between our results and those from the measurements at LEP demonstrates the validity of the Standard Model over a range in momentum transfer which spans six orders of magnitude.
