The dominant muon decay mode (sometimes called the Michel decay after Louis Michel) is the simplest possible: the muon decays to an electron, an electron antineutrino, and a muon …

2024年11月6日 · Muon Decay. Muons are leptons that are slightly heavier than the electron. Muons (μ –) typically decay into an electron. Anti-muons (μ +) typically decay into positrons

The decay rate will, in general, be a function of all ve. Hence we need to integrate over ve variables to get the total width. In particular, this tells us that the energy of the electrons from …

We have determined spectra of daughter electrons in decays of bound muons. Simple interpretation of the high-energy tail: hard photon exchange with the nucleus. max - Ee) but …

Muons have quite short lifetimes of about 2.2 μs at rest before they decay. However due to special relativity they have much longer lifetimes while travelling at high speeds. By slowing …

2.3 Weak decay of a muon The decay process µ−→ν µµ −ν µ diagrammed in Figure 3 is an example of decay mediated by a weak interaction. The upper line connects the muon to the …

MUON DECAY PARAMETERS Revised October 1997 by W. Fetscher and H.-J. Gerber (ETH Z¨urich). Introduction: All measurements in direct muon decay, −!e +2 neutrals, and its inverse, …

Muons can decay due to the mass difference between muons and electrons. Muons and electrons interact with matter only electromagnetically or by the weak nuclear force. The latter causes …

2010年2月6日 · A pi+ meson can undergo the following decay process: pi+ --> muon+ + muon neutrino where the rest mass of the muon neutrino can be considered as zero. Show that the …

2010年3月4日 · All particle detectors in collider physics experiments are built the way they are because of this simple difference: dense layers of material are used to detect electrons, while …
