Abstract
In data taken with the NA48 experiment at the CERN SPS in 1999, 730 candidates of the weak radiative hyperon decay Ξ0 → Λγ have been found with an estimated background of 58 ± 8 events. From these events the Ξ0 → Λγ decay asymmetry has been determined to α(Ξ0→Λγ ) = −0.78 ± 0.18(stat) ± 0.06(syst), which is the first evidence of a decay asymmetry in Ξ0 → Λγ . The branching fraction of the decay has been measured to be Br(Ξ0 → Λγ) = (1.16 ± 0.05(stat) ± 0.06(syst)) × 10^−3 .| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
