We report a measurement of the positive muon lifetime to a precision of 1.0 parts per million (ppm); it is the most precise particle lifetime ever measured. The experiment used a time-structured, low-energy muon beam and a segmented plastic…
The lifetimes of B+ and B0 mesons have been measured using the entire sample of 550,000 hadronic Z0 decays collected by the SLD experiment at the SLC between 1993 and 1998. In this paper, we describe the inclusive analysis of the 350,000…
We have made the first measurement of the D*+ width using 9/fb of e+e- data collected near the Upsilon(4S) resonance by the CLEO II.V detector. Our method uses advanced tracking techniques and a reconstruction method that takes advantage of…
We report a method for the precision measurement of the oscillator strengths and the branching ratios of the decay channels of the $6d7p$ $^3F_2$ state in $^{226}$Ra. This method exploits a set of metastable states present in Ra, allowing a…
We measure the time dependence of the ratio of decay rates for D0 -> K+ pi- to the Cabibbo-favored decay D0 -> K- pi+. The charge conjugate decays are included. A signal of 3.3 x 10^4 D*+ -> pi+ D0, D0 -> K+ pi- decays is obtained with D0…
Several lifetimes in 23Mg have been determined for the first time using the Doppler-shift attenuation method. A Monte Carlo simulation code has been written to model the gamma-ray line shape. An upper limit of 12 fs at the 95% C.L. has been…
Final results from the DELPHI Collaboration on the lifetime of B+ and B0 mesons and the mean b-hadron lifetime, are presented using the data collected at the Z0 peak in 1994 and 1995. Elaborate, inclusive, secondary vertexing methods have…
Utilizing the data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.19$ fb$^{-1}$ collected by the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV, we perform an amplitude analysis of the $D_s^+\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$ decay. The…
The production of D+- and D0 mesons has been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 133.6 pb-1. The measurements cover the kinematic range 5 < Q^2 < 1000 GeV^2, 0.02 < y < 0.7, 1.5 < p_T^D < 15 GeV and…
The production of $D_s^-$ relative to $D_s^+$ as a function of $x_F $ with 600 GeV/c $\Sigma^-$ beam is measured in the interval $0.15 < x_F < 0.7$ by the SELEX (E781) experiment at Fermilab. The integrated charge asymmetries with 600 GeV/c…
We report a measurement of the radiative lifetime of the $5s5p \; {}^{\rm{3}}P^{\rm{o}}_{\rm{0}}$ metastable state in ${}^{87}$Sr, which is coupled to the 5$s^{\rm{2}} \;$ ${}^{\rm{1}}S_{\rm{0}}$ ground state via a hyperfine-induced…
We present a measurement of $D^0$-$\bar{D^0}$ mixing parameters using the ratios of lifetimes extracted from a sample of $D^0$ mesons produced through the process $D^{*+}\to\D^0\pi^+$, that decay to $K^{+}\pi^{-}$, K^{-}K^{+}$, or…
Positron lifetime spectra were measured in liquid water at temperatures between 0c and 50c. The long lifetime of ortho-positronium atoms (o-Ps) determined by electron pick-off in molecular substances decreases smoothly by 10% as the…
The two B^0 decay processes B^0 --> D^{*-}pi^+ and B^0 --> D^{*-}l^+nu have been studied by means of a partial reconstruction technique using a data sample collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring. To increase…
The four decay modes $D^{0}\to\phi\pi^{0}$, $D^{0}\to\phi\eta$, $D^{+}\to\phi\pi^{+}$, and $D^{+}\to\phi K^{+}$ are studied by using a data sample taken at the centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 3.773$~GeV~with the BESIII detector,…
We report a measurement of the lifetime of the cesium $7s\,^2S_{1/2}$ state using time-correlated single-photon counting spectroscopy in a vapor cell. We excite the atoms using a Doppler-free two-photon transition from the $6s\,^2S_{1/2}$…
The decays Bs0 --> Ds(*)+ Ds(*)- are reconstructed in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.8 fb-1 collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron p\bar{p} collider. All decay modes are observed with a significance…
The DIRAC experiment, a magnetic double arm spectrometer, aims to measure the $\pi^+\pi^-$ atom lifetime with 10% precision, using the high intensity 24 GeV/c proton beam of the CERN Proton Synchrotron. Since the value of this lifetime of…
The FOCUS experiment(FNAL-E831) has used two channels, $\Omega^- \pi^+$ and $\Xi^-K^- \pi^+ \pi^+$,to measure the lifetime of the $\Omega_c^0$ charmed baryon. From a sample of $64 \pm 14$ signal events at a mass of 2.698 GeV/$c^2$, we…
We present a simultaneous measurement of the B0bar lifetime tau_B0 and B0B0bar oscillation frequency Delta_md. We use a sample of about 50000 partially reconstructed B0bar --> D*+ ell- nu-bar decays identified with the BABAR detector at the…
