The effect of a static quadrupole interaction on the 133-482 Kev
gamma-gamma angular correlation in Ta-181 has been studied by the
delayed coincidence method. Using a source of Hf-181 in polycrystalline
hafnium metal, the anisotropy was measured as a function of
time between the formation and decay of the 482...
The differential cross section for the reaction k⁻+p[forward arrow] k⁰+[uppercase xi]⁰ was measured in a spark chamber experiment for an incident k⁻ momentum of 1.8 GeV/c. The target was liquid hydrogen confronted
by an anti-coincidence counter to insure neutral particle production.
A 60 element hodoscope signalled the presence of four...
The decay of Pd¹⁰⁹, Pd¹¹¹ [superscript g], and Pd¹¹¹ [superscript m] produced by thermal neutron irradiation of palladium targets has been investigated. Gamma ray energies and relative intensities have been measured with a high resolution Ge(Li) spectrometer. From energy sums and relative intensity considerations level schemes for Ag ¹⁰⁹ and...
Quantum physics in the Copenhagen interpretation places an unsatisfying divide between the quantum and classical worlds. Decoherence -- the destruction of superposition states of the system -- helps us understand how the quantum transitions to the classical. Quantum Darwinism builds on decoherence to understand how information about the system is...
