E895 |
|
The physics goal of AGS experiment E895 is to study multiparticle correlations - especially collective effects - as well as particle production and critical phenomena in a variety of heavy ion systems up to Au + Au, over a range of AGS beam energies. |
PDSF Contact: Gulshan Rai - GRai@lbl.gov |
The E895 collaboration is using PDSF as the production facility for analysis of raw data into DSTs. |
|
|
E896 |
|
E896 is a search for short-lived composite strange matter (in particular the H0 di-baryon) and an investigation of hyperon production in 11.6 A GeV/c AuAu Collisions. |

MuCap -
Precision Measurement of Muon
Capture on the Proton
|
|
This negative muon capture rate determines
the least well known weak coupling constant of the
proton, g_p, and tests chiral perturbation theory
and various models of nucleon structure.
MuCap will analyze over 10^10 muon decays in
ultra-clean deuterium-depleted hydrogen.
