Polarized Bhabha scattering and a precision measurement of the electron neutral current couplings.

چکیده
The cross section for Bhabha scattering (e + e − → e + e −) with polarized electrons at the center of mass energy of the Z 0 resonance has been measured with the SLD experiment at the SLAC Linear Collider (SLC) during the 1992 and 1993 runs. The first measurement of the left-right asymmetry in Bhabha scattering (A e + e − LR (|cosθ|)) is presented. From A e + e − LR (|cosθ|) the effective weak mixing angle is measured to be sin 2 θ eff W = 0.2245 ± 0.0049 ± 0.0010. The effective electron vector and axial vector couplings to the Z 0 are extracted from a combined analysis of the polarized Bhabha scattering data and and the left-right asymmetry (A LR) previously published by this collaboration. From the combined 1992 and 1993 data the effective electron couplings are measured to be v e = −0.0414 ± 0.0020 and a e = −0.4977 ± 0.0045.

For neutrino scattering from polarized electron, the weak interaction term in the cross section is significantly suppressed by the polarized term. The magnetic moment term does not receive any correction from the electron polarization. Hence, the study of the magnetic moment of neutrinos through scattering from the polarized electron leads to a stronger bound on the neutrino magnetic moment com...
متن کاملModel independent constraints on contact interactions from polarized Bhabha scattering at LC
We discuss electron-electron contact-interaction searches in the process ee → ee at a future ee Linear Collider with c.m. energy √ s = 0.5 TeV and with both beams longitudinally polarized. Our analysis is based on the measurement of the polarized differential cross sections, and allows to simultaneously take into account the general set of contact interaction couplings as independent, non-zero,...
متن کاملParity-Violating Electron Scattering
Measurements of parity-violating asymmetries in the scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons off unpolarized fixed targets are used to access leptonic and semi-leptonic weak neutral current amplitudes. One thrust of the current program is the measurement the elastic neutral weak amplitude at very low Q from scattering off a heavy spinless nucleus, which is sensitive to the presence of a...
متن کاملBhabha vs. Möller scattering as a contact-interaction analyzer at a polarized Linear Collider
We discuss electron-electron contact-interaction searches in the processes ee → ee and e−e− → e−e− at planned Linear Colliders run in the ee and e−e− modes with both beams longitudinally polarized. Our analysis is based on the measurement, for the two processes, of polarized differential cross sections, and allows to simultaneously take into account the general set of electron contact interacti...
