A Circulating Hydrogen Ultra-High Purification System for the MuCap Experiment (2007)
Ganzha, V. A., Kravtsov, P. A., Maev, O. E., Schapkin, G. N., Semenchuk, G. G., Trofimov, V., ...
The MuCap experiment is a high-precision measurement of the rate for the basic electroweak process of muon capture, mu- + p -> n + nu . The experimental approach is based on an active target...
Improved Measurement of the Positive Muon Lifetime and Determination of the Fermi Constant (2007)
Banks, T. I., Barnes, M. J., Battu, S., Carey, R. M., Cheekatmalla, S., ...
The mean life of the positive muon has been measured to a precision of 11 ppm using a low-energy, pulsed muon beam stopped in a ferromagnetic target, which was surrounded by a scintillator detector...
Andreev, V. A., Banks, T. I., Case, T. A., Chitwood, D. B., Clayton, S. M., Crowe, K. M., ...
The rate of nuclear muon capture by the proton has been measured using a new experimental technique based on a time projection chamber operating in ultra-clean, deuterium-depleted hydrogen gas at 1...
Precise Measurement of Muon Capture on the Proton (2002)
Kammel, P., Andreev, V. A., Balin, D. V., Carey, R. M., Case, T., Chitwood, D. B., ...
The aim of the MuCap experiment is a 1% measurement of the singlet capture rate Lambda_S for the basic electro-weak reaction mu + p -> n + nu_mu. This observable is sensitive to the weak form-factors...
