The slope parameter "a" of the π ° - electromagnetic transition form factor was obtained from a measurement of the partial branching ratio of the Dalitz decay π° - e⁺ e⁻ y into high invariant-mass electron-positron pairs. The experiment was carried out at the TRIUMF cyclotron laboratory. A beam of...
The process of de-excitation of the actinides is a very important question in both pure and applied science. In this dissertation the process was studied using the neutrons emitted in coincidence with fission induced by the bombardment of ²³⁸U with 14.85 MeV deuterons. Neutrons can be emitted at multiple stages...
Quantum mechanics provides a conventional theory of scattering that is limited in
at least two ways: it focuses exclusively on the asymptotic regime and, in a more general
sense characteristic of all quantum descriptions, provides no concrete account of individual
particle evolution in spacetime. This is particularly true during the...
