Weak decays of 4He-Lambda

J. D. Parker, M. J. Athanas, P. D. Barnes +16

We measured the lifetime and the mesonic and non-mesonic decay rates of the 4He-Lambda hypernucleus. The hypernuclei were created using a 750 MeV/c momentum K- beam on a liquid 4He…

Search for the lepton-family-number nonconserving decay μ-> e + γ

M. Ahmed

The MEGA experiment, which searched for the muon- and electron-number violating decay μ-> e + γ, is described. The spectrometer system, the calibrations, the data taking procedures…

Rapid Optical Followup Observations of SGR Events with ROTSE-I

ROTSE Collaboration, C. Akerlof, R. Balsano +17

In order to observe nearly simultaneous emission from Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs), the Robotic Optical Transient Search Experiment (ROTSE) receives triggers via the GRB Coordinates Net…

Prompt Optical Observations of Gamma-ray Bursts

Carl Akerlof, Richard Balsano, Scott Barthelmy +18

The Robotic Optical Transient Search Experiment (ROTSE) seeks to measure simultaneous and early afterglow optical emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). A search for optical counte…

ROTSE All Sky Surveys for Variable Stars I: Test Fields

ROTSE Collaboration, C. Akerlof, S. Amrose +14

The ROTSE-I experiment has generated CCD photometry for the entire Northern sky in two epochs nightly since March 1998. These sky patrol data are a powerful resource for studies of…
