A massive, but light, Abelian U(1) gauge boson is a well-motivated possible signature of physics beyond the standard model particle physics. In this Letter, search for signal such in electron-positron pair production at spectrometer setup A1 Collaboration Mainz Microtron described. Exclusion limits mass range 40 MeV/c2 to 300 MeV/c2, with sensitivity squared mixing parameter as little ε2=8×10−7 are presented. large fraction space has been excluded where discrepancy measured anomalous...
At the Mainz Microtron MAMI, first high-resolution pion spectroscopy from decays of strange systems was performed by electron scattering off a (9)Be target in order to study Λ binding energy light hypernuclei. Positively charged kaons were detected short-orbit spectrometer with broad momentum acceptance at 0° forward angles respect beam, efficiently tagging production strangeness nucleus.

We perform a systematic study of the α-particle excitation from its ground state 0_{1}^{+} to 0_{2}^{+} resonance. The so-called monopole transition form factor is investigated via an electron scattering experiment in broad Q^{2} range (from 0.5 5.0 fm^{-2}). precision new data dramatically supersedes that older sets data, each covering only portion range. allow determination two coefficients low-momentum expansion, leading puzzle. By confronting state-of-the-art theoretical calculations, we...
We report on a new experimental method based initial-state radiation (ISR) in e–p scattering, which exploits the radiative tail of elastic peak to study properties electromagnetic processes and extract proton charge form factor (GEp) at extremely small Q2. The ISR technique was implemented an experiment three-spectrometer facility Mainz Microtron (MAMI). This led precise validation corrections far away from line provided first measurements GEp for 0.001≤Q2≤0.004(GeV/c)2.

We measured the ratio $P_{x}/P_{z}$ of transverse to longitudinal components polarization transferred from electrons bound protons in $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ by $^{12}\mathrm{C}(\vec{e},e'\vec{p})$ process at Mainz Microtron (MAMI). observed consistent deviations unity this normalized free-proton ratio, $(P_{x}/P_{z})_{^{12}\mathrm{C}}/(P_{x}/P_{z})_{^{1}\mathrm{H}}$, for both $s$- and $p$-shell knocked out protons, even though they are embedded averaged local densities that differ about a factor...
In an attempt to contribute further insight into the discrepancy between Lamb shift and elastic scattering determinations of proton charge radius, a new experiment at MAMI is underway, aimed measuring form-factors very low momentum transfers by using technique based on initial state radiation. This paper reports conclusions pilot measurement performed in 2010, whose main goal was check feasibility proposed recognize overcome any obstacles before running full experiment. The modifications...
We report the measurement of ratio polarization-transfer components, Px/Pz, in H2(e→,e′p→)n reaction at low and high missing momenta, search differences between free bound protons. The observed deviation Px/Pz from that a proton, which is similar to 4He, indicates effect nuclei function virtuality knock-out proton momentum direction, but not average nuclear density. There general agreement data calculations, assume form factors, however, measurements are consistently about 10% higher.
Virtual Compton scattering on the proton has been investigated at three yet unexplored values of four-momentum transfer Q^{2}: 0.10, 0.20, and 0.45 GeV^{2}, Mainz Microtron. Fits performed using either low-energy theorem or dispersion relations allowed extraction structure functions P_{LL}-P_{TT}/ε P_{LT}, as well electric magnetic generalized polarizabilities α_{E1}(Q^{2}) β_{M1}(Q^{2}). These new results show a smooth rapid falloff α_{E1}(Q^{2}), in contrast to previous measurements...

These measurements, performed at Mainz Microtron (MAMI), were motivated by theoretical calculations which predict small final-state interaction (FSI) effects these kinematics, making them favorable for searching medium...
