Book Sixty Years of Double Beta Decay

Download or read book Sixty Years of Double Beta Decay written by H. V. Klapdor-Kleingrothaus and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 1324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear double beta decay is one of the most promising tools for probing beyond-the-standard-model physics on beyond-accelerator energy scales. It is already now probing the TeV scale, on which new physics should manifest itself according to theoretical expectations. Only in the early 1980s was it known that double beta decay yields information on the Majorana mass of the exchanged neutrino. At present, the sharpest bound for the electron neutrino mass arises from this process. It is only in the last 10 years that the much more far-reaching potential of double beta decay has been discovered. Today, the potential of double beta decay includes a broad range of topics that are equally relevant to particle physics and astrophysics, such as masses of heavy neutrinos, of sneutrinos, as SUSY models, compositeness, leptoquarks, left-right symmetric models, and tests of Lorentz symmetry and equivalence principle in the neutrino sector. Double beta decay has become indispensable nowadays for solving the problem of the neutrino mass spectrum and the structure of the neutrino mass matrix OCo together with present and future solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillation experiments. Some future double beta experiments (like GENIUS) will be capable to be simultaneously neutrino observatories for double beta decay and low-energy solar neutrinos, and observatories for cold dark matter of ultimate sensitivity. This invaluable book outlines the development of double beta research from its beginnings until its most recent achievements, and also presents the outlook for its highly exciting future.

Book Seventy Years of Double Beta Decay

Download or read book Seventy Years of Double Beta Decay written by Hans Volker Klapdor-Kleingrothaus and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 1559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last 20 years the disciplines of particle physics, astrophysics, nuclear physics and cosmology have grown together in an unprecedented way. A brilliant example is nuclear double beta decay, an extremely rare radioactive decay mode, which is one of the most exciting and important fields of research in particle physics at present and the flagship of non-accelerator particle physics. While already discussed in the 1930s, only in the 1980s was it understood that neutrinoless double beta decay can yield information on the Majorana mass of the neutrino, which has an impact on the structure of space-time. Today, double beta decay is indispensable for solving the problem of the neutrino mass spectrum and the structure of the neutrino mass matrix. The potential of double beta decay has also been extended such that it is now one of the most promising tools for probing beyond-the-standard-model particle physics, and gives access to energy scales beyond the potential of future accelerators. This book presents the breathtaking manner in which achievements in particle physics have been made from a nuclear physics process. Consisting of a 150-page highly factual overview of the field of double beta decay and a 1200-page collection of the most important original articles, the book outlines the development of double beta decay research theoretical and experimental from its humble beginnings until its most recent achievements, with its revolutionary consequences for the theory of particle physics. It further presents an outlook on the exciting future of the field.

Book Nuclear Structure Studies Using the Resonance Fluorescence Technique

Download or read book Nuclear Structure Studies Using the Resonance Fluorescence Technique written by Charles P. Swann and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the final report of work done under these grants. The resonance fluorescence technique was used in these studies with the source of radiation being either gamma rays from the 19F(p, alpha gamma)16O reaction or from electron bremsstrahlung. Properties of levels at about 7 MeV in 16O, 23Na, 207, 208Pb and 209Bi and from 1 - 5 MeV in 59Co, 24Mg, 206,207, 208Pb, 209Bi and 63, 65Cu were deduced from these measurements. Seven papers have been or are to be published and two additional ones are being prepared. (Modified author abstract).

Book Total Absorption Technique for Nuclear Structure and Applications

Download or read book Total Absorption Technique for Nuclear Structure and Applications written by Alejandro Algora and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-07-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first monograph dedicated to the use of the total absorption technique in beta decay studies. It provides a detailed introduction to the beta decay process and all necessary know-how for the use of the total absorption technique. Total absorption spectroscopy (TAS) is the one of the very few techniques available that can provide nuclear decay data free from the Pandemonium effect (the systematic error causes the assignment of larger beta-decay probabilities than the real values to the lower lying levels). This book covers all aspects related to the use of this technique, from the preparation of an experiment to the algorithms required in the analysis of the data acquired. It also covers the most relevant applications of the technique, from nuclear structure (comparison with nuclear models, determination of nuclear shapes) to nuclear astrophysics and other more applied purposes such as the prediction of reactor decay heat and the primary antineutrino spectrum from nuclear reactors.

Book Discovery of the Two neutrino Double beta Decay of Xenon 136 with EXO 200

Download or read book Discovery of the Two neutrino Double beta Decay of Xenon 136 with EXO 200 written by Russell Geoffrey Neilson and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent neutrino oscillation measurements provide definitive evidence for non-zero neutrino masses. Oscillation measurements, however, only measure mass differences, not the absolute mass scale. Neutrinoless double-beta decay, a hypothetical nuclear transition, can probe the absolute neutrino mass scale. This process, if observed, would also imply that neutrinos are their own anti-particles and that lepton number is not a conserved quantity. The 200 kg Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO-200) detector is currently taking data to search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe-136, with an expected half-life in excess of 10^25 years. Located at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) near Carlsbad, New Mexico, the detector is filled with 200 kg of isotopically enriched liquid xenon. The analysis presented here describes the recent observation with EXO-200 of the two-neutrino double beta-decay of Xe-136. This is the rarest process ever directly observed with a half-life of 2.11+-0.21 x 10^21 years and provides important input to the measurement of the neutrinoless decay.
