Improved measurement of the $π\rightarrow \mbox{e} ν$ branching ratio

A. Aguilar-Arevalo, M. Aoki, M. Blecher +23

A new measurement of the branching ratio, $R_{e/μ} =Γ(π^+ \rightarrow \mbox{e}^+ ν+ π^+ \rightarrow \mbox{e}^+ νγ)/ Γ(π^+ \rightarrow μ^+ ν+ π^+ \rightarrow μ^+ νγ)$, resulted in $…

Detector for measuring the branching fraction

A. A. Aguilar-Arevalo, M. Aoki, M. Blecher +24

The PIENU experiment at TRIUMF is aimed at a measurement of the branching ratio = ${Γ\big((π^{+} \rightarrow e^{+} ν_{e}) + (π^{+} \rightarrow e^{+} ν_{e}γ)\big)}/{Γ\big(…

Search for Massive Neutrinos in the Decay pi --> e nu

PIENU Collaboration, M. Aoki, M. Blecher +20

Evidence of massive neutrinos in the pi --> e nu decay spectrum was sought with the background pi --> mu --> e decay chain highly suppressed. Upper limits (90% C.L.) on the neutrin…

Study of a Large NaI(Tl) Crystal

A. Aguilar-Arevalo, M. Aoki, M. Blecher +14

Using a narrow band positron beam, the response of a large high-resolution NaI(Tl) crystal to an incident positron beam was measured. It was found that nuclear interactions cause t…

High Purity Pion Beam at TRIUMF

A. Aguilar-Arevalo, M. Blecher, D. A. Bryman +14

An extension of the TRIUMF M13 low-energy pion channel designed to suppress positrons based on an energy-loss technique is described. A source of beam channel momentum calibration…
