J-PARC Neutrino Beamline Upgrade Technical Design Report
- 2019
-
Rapport (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this document, technical details of the upgrade plan of the J-PARC neutrino beamline for the extension of the T2K experiment are described. T2K has proposed to accumulate data corresponding to 2×1022 protons-on-target in the next decade, aiming at an initial observation of CP violation with 3σ or higher significance in the case of maximal CP violation. Methods to increase the neutrino beam intensity, which are necessary to achieve the proposed data increase, are described.

- The existence of a new force beyond the Standard Model is compelling because it could explain several striking astrophysical observations which fail standard interpretations. We searched for the light vector mediator of this dark force, the U boson, with the KLOE detector at the DA Phi NE e(+)e(-) collider. Using an integrated luminosity of 1.54 fb(-1), we studied the process e(+)e(-) -> U gamma, with U -> e(+)e(-), using radiative return to search for a resonant peak in the dielectron invariant-mass distribution. We did not find evidence for a signal, and set a 90% CL upper limit on the mixing strength between the Standard Model photon and the dark photon, epsilon(2), at 10(-6)-10(-4) in the 5-520 MeV/c(2) mass range.

- Abstract The recent interest in a light gauge boson in the framework of an extra U(1) symmetry motivates searches in the mass range below 1 GeV. We present a search for such a particle, the dark photon, in e + e − → U γ , U → π + π − based on 28 million e + e − → π + π − γ events collected at DAΦNE by the KLOE experiment. The π + π − production by initial-state radiation compensates for a loss of sensitivity of previous KLOE U → e + e − , μ + μ − searches due to the small branching ratios in the ρ – ω resonance region. We found no evidence for a signal and set a limit at 90% CL on the mixing strength between the photon and the dark photon, ε 2 , in the U mass range between 527 and 987 MeV . Above 700 MeV this new limit is more stringent than previous ones.

- We searched for evidence of a Higgsstrahlung process in a secluded sector, leading to a final state with a dark photon U and a dark Higgs boson h', with the KLOE detector at DA Phi NE. We investigated the case of h' lighter than U, with U decaying into a muon pair and h' producing a missing energy signature. We found no evidence of the process and set upper limits to its parameters in the range 2m(mu) < m(U) < 1000 MeV, m(h') < m(U). (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

- We have studied the vector to pseudoscalar conversion decay phi -> eta e(+)e(-), with.. eta -> pi(0)pi(0)pi(0), with the KLOE detector at DA phi NE. The data set of 1.7 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) collisions at root s similar to M-phi contains a clear conversion decay signal of similar to 31,000 events from which we measured a value of BR(phi -> eta e(+)e-) = (1.075 +/- 0.007 +/- 0.038) x 10(-4). The same sample is used to determine the transition form factor by a fit to the e(+)e(-) invariant mass spectrum, obtaining b(phi eta)=( 1.28 +/- 0.10(-0.08)(+0.09)) GeV-2, that improves by a factor of five the precision of the previous measurement and is in good agreement with VMD expectations.
