Violations of Einstein ’ s time dilation formula in particle decays Eugene

چکیده

A rigorous quantum relativistic approach has been used to calculate the relationship between the decay laws of an unstable particle seen from two inertial frames moving with respect to each other. In agreement with experiment, it is found that the usual Einstein’s time dilation formula is rather accurate in this case. However, small corrections to this formula were also obtained. Although the observation of these corrections is beyond the accuracy of modern experiments, their presence indicates that special relativistic time dilation is not rigorously applicable to particle decays.

Violation of the Einstein relation in Granular Fluids: the role of correlations

We study the linear response in different models of driven granular gases. In some situations, even if the the velocity statistics can be strongly non-Gaussian, we do not observe appreciable violations of the Einstein formula for diffusion versus mobility. The situation changes when strong correlations between velocities and density are present: in this case, although a form of fluctuation-diss...

Bose - Einstein Correlations and Color Reconnectionin W - pair productionS

We propose a systematic study of Bose-Einstein correlations between identical hadrons coming from diierent W decays. Experimentally accessible signatures of these correlations as well as of possible color reconnection eeects are discussed on the basis of two-particle inclusive densities.

Bose-Einstein correlations and color reconnection in hadronic W

We report on studies of Bose-Einstein correlations and color reconnection in hadronic W pair production at LEP. Bose-Einstein correlations between identical particles from the decay of different W's are studied by comparing the particle correlation in hadronic W pair decays to those in events which are constructed from the combination of the hadronic parts of two events where one of the Ws deca...

On the m⊥-dependence of Bose-Einstein correlation radii

Within a theoretical study using both HYLANDER and RQMD, we revisit Bose-Einstein correlation measurements of 200AGeV S+S and 160AGeV Pb+Pb. Transverse flow does not show up in the Bose-Einstein measurements. The decrease of the effective transverse radius parameters with increasing transverse average momentum of the particle pair is largely due to the effect of resonance decays. E. Mail: schle...

Evolution in Time of Moving Unstable Systems

Relativistic quantum theory shows that the known Einstein time dilation (ED) approximately holds for the decay law of the unstable particle having definite momentum p (DP). I use a different definition of the moving particle as the state with definite velocity v (DV). It is shown that in this case the decay law is not dilated. On the contrary, it is contracted as compared with the decay law of ...
