Radiative corrections to Fermi interactions

T Kinoshita, A Sirlin - Physical Review, 1959 - APS
The radiative correction to the decay spectrum of polarized muons is recalculated taking into
account a mistake in our previous work which was recently pointed out by Berman. The …

Radiative corrections to muon and neutron decay

SM Berman - Physical Review, 1958 - APS
The corrections to muon decay due to electromagnetic interactions have been recalculated.
Our results differ from those of Behrends, Finkelstein, and Sirlin, because those authors …

Radiative corrections to decay processes

RE Behrends, RJ Finkelstein, A Sirlin - Physical Review, 1956 - APS
Radiative corrections associated with the electromagnetic field have been determined for
the decay of a fermion of arbitrary mass into a lighter one with the emission of a single boson …

Some considerations on the radiative corrections to muon and neutron decay

SM Berman, A Sirlin - Annals of Physics, 1962 - Elsevier
The possibility of ambiguities in the regulator procedure used in the calculation of the
radiative corrections to muon decay is discussed. It is pointed out that there is a particular …

The universal Fermi interaction

EJ Konopinski, HM Mahmoud - Physical Review, 1953 - APS
On the basis of the hypothesis that the same form of interaction acts among any spin-½
particles, it is interesting to apply the interaction law found for β decay to the muon …

Law of conservation of muons

G Feinberg, S Weinberg - Physical Review Letters, 1961 - APS
The apparent absence of muon-electron transi-tions without neutrinos, such as p. e+ y, p. 3e,
and p+ p~ e+ p, leads one to suspect that there is a new conservation law forbiddingthem …

Application of -Limiting Process to Intermediate Bosons

TD Lee - Physical Review, 1962 - APS
The ξ-limiting process discussed in the preceding paper is used to study the electromagnetic
properties of the intermediate boson W±. Assuming that the limit ξ→ 0 exists, it is found that …

Theorem on Decays and Electron-Muon Universality

WJ Marciano, A Sirlin - Physical Review Letters, 1976 - APS
We show that the coefficient of the logarithmic lepton-mass singularity in the radiative
corrections of order α to the total π l 2 decay probability is not affected by the strong …

Decay rate of bound muons

RW Huff - Annals of Physics, 1961 - Elsevier
The total rate and the electron energy spectrum are calculated for the decay of a negative
muon bound in an atomic 1s state, using relativistic electron and muon wave functions …

The universal Fermi interaction and the conserved vector current in beta decay

CS Wu - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1964 - APS
As early as1948the great similarity in the strength of the coupling constants in beta decay,
muon decay, and muon capture had tempted several authors''to postulate a universal Fermi …
