Rivet analyses
Measurement of Λ → nγ decay asymmetry using J/ψ decays to Λ0Λ̄0
Experiment: BESIII (BEPC)
Inspire ID: 2099126
Status: VALIDATED NOHEPDATA
Authors: - Peter Richardson
References: - arXiv: 2206.10791
Beams: e- e+
Beam energies: (1.6, 1.6)GeV
Run details: none listed
Analysis of the angular distribution of the baryons, and decay products, produced in e+e− → J/ψ → Λ0Λ̄0 with the decay Λ → nγ. Gives information about the decay and is useful for testing correlations in hadron decays. N.B. the moment data is not corrected and should only be used qualatively.
