Parity violation in the 0.734-eV neutron resonance inLa139

Abstract: The degree of parity mixing in the 0.734-eV neutron resonance in " La was measured in a twosample transmission experiment. An unpolarized neutron beam was weakly polarized in the longitudinal direction at energies near the resonance by transmission through a La&03 sample. The beam was passed through a spin flipper and then through a second sample of La203. The difference in transmission for the two spin directions was then measured to determine the longitudinal asymmetry. We obtain 9.2+1.7% s-wave mixing into … Show more

“…In particular, considering the full "reasonable ranges" of the DDH couplings covers the range of LEC values one would obtain from naturalness arguments. 5 The asymmetry in pp scattering constrains one particular linear combination of LECs in dEFT π . Here, we consider this as an estimate of the size of individual LECs.…”

“…By transmitting such a weaklypolarized beam through a second 139 La target, one can realize a measurement of the P-odd asymmetry in which the 139 La targets act as both a polarizer and as a polarization analyzer, resulting in the aptly-named 'Double Lanthanum' measurement method. Although the beam polarization produced on the parity-odd 0.7 eV resonance in 139 La is small [21] [22], its use in this configuration eliminates certain systematic errors associated with measuring P , especially the absolute knowledge of the neutron beam polarization f n . In this paper we describe how our apparatus may be modified to accommodate setups for both the 'Double Lanthanum' P measurement method as well as a traditional P measurement using a 3 He neutron spin filter.…”
