在KLOE探测器中使用纯$\ks$束测量$K_S\to γγ$衰变的分支比

Branching ratio measurement of $K_S\to γγ$ decay using a pure $\ks$ beam in the KLOE detector

The KLOE Collaboration

摘要:

我们分析了1.62 fb $^{-1}$的$e^{+}e^{-}$碰撞在一个中心的质量能量$\sim M_ϕ$收集的KLOE实验在DA $Φ$ NE。该样品对应于17亿个$\ks$ $\kl$对的$\sim$的生产,这使我们能够搜索罕见的$K_S\to γγ$衰变。$K_S$被量热计中的$K_L$相互作用标记,并且通过需要两个额外的瞬发光子来搜索信号。强运动学要求将初始0.5 $\times 10^6$事件减少到2300个候选者,我们从中提取600个$\pm$ 35事件的信号。通过对同一样品中计算的$\ks \to 2 π^0$衰变进行归一化,BR($\ks \to γγ$)的测量值为(2.27)$\pm 0.13(stat.) ^{+0.03}_{-0.04} (syst.)) \times 10^{-6}$,与$O(P^4)$手征微扰理论的预测一致。

英文摘要:

We have analyzed 1.62 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at a center of mass energy $\sim M_ϕ$ collected by the KLOE experiment at DA$Φ$NE. This sample corresponds to a production of $\sim$ 1.7 billion of $\ks$ $\kl$ pairs which allowed us to search for the rare $K_S\to γγ$ decay. $K_S$ are tagged by the $K_L$ interaction in the calorimeter and the signal is searched for by requiring two additional prompt photons. Strong kinematic requirements reduce the initial 0.5$\times 10^6$ events to 2300 candidates from which we extract a signal of 600 $\pm$ 35 events. By normalizing to the $\ks \to 2 π^0$ decays counted in the same sample, the measured value of BR($\ks \to γγ$) is (2.27 $\pm 0.13(stat.) ^{+0.03}_{-0.04} (syst.)) \times 10^{-6}$, in agreement with $O(P^4)$ Chiral Perturbation Theory predictions.
