abstract

Using a large acceptance calorimeter and a stopped pion beam we have made a precise measurement of the rare Pi+ -> Pi0 e+ Nu,(pi_beta) decay branching ratio. We have evaluated the branching ratio by normalizing the number of observed pi_beta decays to the number of observed Pi+ -> e+ Nu, (pi_{e2}) decays. We find the value of Gamma(Pi+ -> Pi0 e+ Nu)/Gamma(total) = [1.036 +/- 0.004(stat.) +/- 0.004(syst.) +/- 0.003(pi_{e2})] x 10^{-8}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third is the pi_{e2} branching ratio uncertainty. Our result agrees well with the Standard Model prediction.

    No excess observed in search for vector-like top quark T to tH in opposite-sign dilepton final states; 95% CL upper limits on sigma times BR range from 2.0 pb at 600 GeV to 0.1 pb at 1000 GeV.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A fixed-point cascade in the asymptotically safe Standard Model predicts the near-diagonal CKM structure with two different precisions and preserves large PMNS mixing by dynamically suppressing neutrino Yukawa couplings.

  3. A comprehensive study of ALPs from $B$-decays

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper derives the complete two-loop flavor-changing coupling of axion-like particles to b and s quarks and uses it to set updated limits on f_a in KSVZ, DFSZ and Flaxion models.

  4. Constraining axion-like particles from rare pion decays

    hep-ph 2019-08 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Existing PIENU and PIBETA rare pion decay data constrain ALP-pion mixing to sin^2 theta below about 1e-5 for ALP masses from 10 MeV to the pion mass.
