The Decay Lifetime of Polarized Fermions in Flight

arXiv:hep-ph/0202017 · doi:10.1088/0256-307X/19/10/309

Abstract

Based on the parity violation in Standard model, we study the dependence of lifetime on the helicity of an initial-state fermion in weak interactions. It is pointed out that if the initial fermions in the decays are longitudinally polarized, then the decay lifetime of left-handed polarized fermions is different from that of right-handed polarized fermions in flight with a same velocity in a same inertial system.
