The explicit breaking of the axial symmetry by quantum fluctuations gives rise to so-called anomaly. This phenomenon is solely responsible for decay neutral pion π0 into two photons (γγ), leading its unusually short lifetime. We precisely measured width Γ [Formula: see text] process. differential cross sections photoproduction at forward angles were on targets, carbon-12 and silicon-28, yielding text], where stat. denotes statistical uncertainty syst. systematic uncertainty. combined results...
Amphoteric phosphocholine as a family of mild surfactants are widely used in biology due to their phosphate structure related naturally occurring membrane lipids.Changing its hydrophobic part the fluorocarbon counterparts, it was found that interfacial properties exhibit significant differences.Currently, research on fluorinated is limited and lacks types structures.We oxygen atoms specificity our previous works.In this work, kind containing fluoroether chain synthesized, properties, foam...
We develop an approach, by calculating the autocorrelation function of spins, to derive magnetic field gradient-induced transverse (${T}_{2}$) relaxation spins undergoing restricted diffusion. This approach is extension method adopted McGregor. McGregor's solves problem only in fast diffusion limit; however, our yields a single analytical solution suitable all regimes, including intermediate regime. establishes direct connection between well-known slow result Torrey and result. also perform...
We present a summary of recent workshop held at Duke University on Partonic Transverse Momentum in Hadrons: Quark Spin-Orbit Correlations and Quark-Gluon Interactions. The transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs), parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions, multi-parton correlation were discussed extensively the workshop. In this paper, we summarize first theoretical issues concerning study partonic structure hadrons future electron-ion collider (EIC) with emphasis...
We propose a new method to detect short-range \textit{P-} and \textit{T-} violating interactions between nucleons, based on measuring the precession frequency shift of polarized $^3$He nuclei in presence an unpolarized mass. To maximize sensitivity, high-pressure cell with thin glass windows (250 $\rm\mu m$) is used minimize distance mass $^3$He. The magnetic field fluctuation suppressed by using gas different region as magnetometer. Systematic uncertainties from properties are flipping both...
The first measurement of the three-body photodisintegration longitudinally polarized (3)He with a circularly γ-ray beam was carried out at High Intensity Source facility located Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory. spin-dependent double-differential cross sections and contributions from to Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn integrand are presented compared state-of-the-art calculations incident photon energies 12.8 14.7 MeV. data reveal importance including Coulomb interaction between protons in...
Cooling of hadron beams is critically important in the next generation storage rings for delivery unprecedented performance. One such application electron-ion collider presently under development US. The desire to develop electron coolers operation at much higher energies than previously achieved necessitates use radio-frequency (RF) fields acceleration as opposed conventional, electrostatic approach. While cooling a mature technology low energy utilizing DC beam, RF requires beam be...

We have observed a linear pressure dependence of longitudinal relaxation time ${T}_{1}$ at 4.2 and 295 K in gaseous $^{3}\mathrm{He}$ cells made either bare Pyrex glass or Cs- Rb-coated due to paramagnetic sites the cell wall. The wall is previously thought be independent pressure. develop model interpret by taking into account diffusion process, our gives good description data.
