π0 mass difference as determined from double Dalitz pairs

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The π, π0 mass difference was determined by measuring the momenta of the two internally converted electron positron pairs from π0-decay. A total of 119 events gave a valuem π π 0=(4.69±0.07) MeV.

Riassunto

La differenza di massa π, π0 è stata determinata misurando gli impulsi di due coppie elettrone positrone convertite internamente da decadimento π0. Un totale di 119 eventi diede un valorem π π 0=(4.69±0.07) MeV.
