[Triumf-seminars] TRIUMF Seminar today at 14:00

Date/Time: Tue 2008-07-22 at 14:00

Location:  Auditorium          

Speaker:   Alejandro Garcia (University of Washington, Seattle)

Title:     Searches for scalar currents and determination of isospin breaking in 32Ar decay

Abstract: I will present data from experiments that determine the positron-neutrino correlation coefficient, the lifetime, the absolute branches, and the beta decay Q values for decays of 32Ar. These measurements are motivated by: a) trying to put upper limits on possible scalar contributions to the Weak Interaction and b) testing the models that calculate isosping breaking corrections to extract V_ud from nuclear beta decays.
