Using the data on deep inelastic muon scattering on iron and deuterium the ratio of the nucleon structure functions F 2 N ( Fe )/ F 2 N ( D ) is presented. The observed x -dependence of this ratio is ...
The search for the decay μ + → e + e + e − with the SINDRUM spectrometer has been continued. The result is a new upper limit for the branching ratio B μ→3 e = Γ(μ→3 e ) Γ(μ→ e 2ν) < 1.0 × 10 −12 (90% ...
We consider the three-dimensional Dirac equation in spherical coordinates with coupling to static electromagnetic potential. The space components of the potential have angular (non-central) dependence ...
The requirement that P and T be approximately conserved in the color gauge theory of strong interactions without arbitrary adjustment of parameters is analyzed. Several possibilities are identified, ...
The WIMP limit set by the Xenon10 experiment in 2007 signals a new era in direct detection of dark matter, with several large-scale liquid target detectors now under construction. A major challenge in ...

If high energy heavy ion collisions lead to the formation of a hot quark-gluon plasma, then colour screening prevents cc binding in the deconfined interior of the interaction region. To study this ...
Possible nonlocal effects in μ decay are investigated phenomenologically. It is shown that the possible difference between the experimental ρ value from 34 can be attributed to such nonlocal phenomena ...

The reaction π − p → φφ n has been isolated at 16 GeV/ c and its cross section determined to be 40 ± 10 nb. The φφ mass spectrum shows a threshold enhancement between 2.1 and 2.5 GeV. A successful ...
We have searched for the lepton-flavor-violating decay D0→e±μ∓ in 204 pb−1 of e+e− annihilation data at Ec.m.=29 GeV from the Mark II detector. No candidates were found; we estimate an upper limit on ...
The 3π spectrum in τ decay is studied by considering the contribution from the radially excited state (a1’) of the a1 meson. It is shown that the spectrum is reasonably reproduced by the following ...
