DIRAC Experiment at CERN: Lifetime Measurement of Pionium
The DIRAC experiment, a magnetic double arm spectrometer, aims to measure the GeV/c proton beam of the CERN Proton Synchrotron. Since the value of this lifetime of order $10^{-15}$~s is dictated by strong interaction at low energy, a precise measurement of this quantity enables to study characterist...

| description | The DIRAC experiment, a magnetic double arm spectrometer, aims to measure the GeV/c proton beam of the CERN Proton Synchrotron. Since the value of this lifetime of order $10^{-15}$~s is dictated by strong interaction at low energy, a precise measurement of this quantity enables to study characteristic pion parameters in detail and to submit predictions of QCD to a severe check. |

Since the value of this lifetime of order $10^{-15}$~s is dictated by strong interaction at low energy, a precise measurement of this quantity enables to study characteristic pion parameters in detail and to submit predictions of QCD to a severe check.hep-ph/9808407BUHE-98-09BU-HEP-98-09DIRAC-CONF-1998-01oai:cds.cern.ch:3631541998 |
