A gas cell for stopping, storing and polarizing radioactive particles
A. Sytema, J. E. van den Berg, O. Böll +14
A radioactive beam of 20Na is stopped in a gas cell filled with Ne gas. The stopped particles are polarized by optical pumping. The degree of polarization that can be achieved is s…
Question of Lorentz invariance in muon decay
J. P. Noordmans, C. J. G. Onderwater, H. W. Wilschut +1
Possibilities to test the Lorentz invariance of the weak interaction in muon decay are considered. We derive the direction-dependent muon-decay rate with a general Lorentz-violatin…
Measurement of the half-life of the T= mirror decay of Ne and its implication on physics beyond the standard model
L. J. Broussard, H. O. Back, M. S. Boswell +19
The superallowed mixed mirror decay of Ne to F is excellently suited for high precision studies of the weak interaction. How…
First Test of Lorentz Invariance in the Weak Decay of Polarized Nuclei
S. E. Müller, E. A. Dijck, H. Bekker +17
A new test of Lorentz invariance in the weak interactions has been made by searching for variations in the decay rate of spin-polarized 20Na nuclei. This test is unique to Gamow-Te…
Detailed Report of the MuLan Measurement of the Positive Muon Lifetime and Determination of the Fermi Constant
V. Tishchenko, S. Battu, R. M. Carey +30
We present a detailed report of the method, setup, analysis and results of a precision measurement of the positive muon lifetime. The experiment was conducted at the Paul Scherrer…
Counting photons at low temperature with a streaming time-to-digital converter
P. C. F. Di Stefano, P. Nadeau, C. J. G. Onderwater +2
We present some aspects of photon counting to study scintillators at low temperatures. A time-to-digital converter (TDC) had been configured to acquire several-minute-long streams…
