How to Reach a Thousand-Second in-Plane Polarization Lifetime with 0.97-GeV/c Deuterons in a Storage Ring
- 2016

In: Physical Review Letters. - : American Physical Society. - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 117:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We observe a deuteron beam polarization lifetime near 1000 s in the horizontal plane of a magnetic storage ring (COSY). This long spin coherence time is maintained through a combination of beam bunching, electron cooling, sextupole field corrections, and the suppression of collective effects through beam current limits. This record lifetime is required for a storage ring search for an intrinsic electric dipole moment on the deuteron at a statistical sensitivity level approaching 10(-29) e cm.

Polarisation of the omega meson in the pd -> He-3 omega reaction at 1360 and 1450 MeV

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The tensor polarisation of omega mesons produced in the pd -> He-3 omega reaction has been studied at two energies near threshold. The 3 He nuclei were detected in coincidence with the pi(0)pi(+)pi(-) or pi(0)gamma decay products of the omega. in contrast to the case of phi-meson production, the omega mesons are found to be unpolarised. This brings into question the applicability of the Okubo-Zweig-lizuka rule when comparing the production of vector mesons in low energy hadronic reactions.

-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The WASA 4 pi multidetector system, aimed at investigating light meson production in light ion collisions and eta meson rare decays at the CELSIUS storage ring in Uppsala is presented. A unique feature of the system is the use of hydrogen pellets as internal targets for the first time. A detailed description of the design, together with the anticipated and achieved performance parameters are given. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Observation of a large longitudinal analyzing power in a nuclear reaction

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We have measured the longitudinal analyzing power A(z) of the pp --> pp pi(0) reaction at 375 MeV bombarding energy. We find that for certain angle combinations of the outgoing particles the observed A(z) is as large as 0.3, demonstrating that sizeable lo

Exclusive measurement of the pp -> nn pi(+)pi(+) reaction at 1.1 GeV
- 2011
-
In: European Physical Journal A. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-6001 .- 1434-601X. ; 47:9, s. 108-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- First exclusive data for the pp -> nnp(+)pi(+) reaction have been obtained at CELSIUS with the WASA detector setup at a beam energy of T(p) - 1.1 GeV. Total and differential cross-sections disagree with theoretical calculations, which predict the Delta Delta excitation to be the dominant process at this beam energy. Instead, the data require the excitation of one of the nucleons to a higher-lying Delta state, preferably the Delta(1600)P(33), to be the leading process.
