AbstractAbstract

[en] We present a measurement of the polarization of Λ-bar hyperons produced in ν_μ charged current interactions. The full data sample from the NOMAD experiment has been analyzed using the same V⁰ identification procedure and analysis method reported in a previous paper [NOMAD Collaboration, Nucl. Phys. B 588 (2000) 3] for the case of Λ hyperons. The Λ-bar polarization has been measured for the first time in a neutrino experiment. The polarization vector is found to be compatible with zero

AbstractAbstract

[en] The inclusive production of the meson resonances ρ⁰(770), f₀(980) and f₂(1270) in neutrino-nucleus charged current interactions has been studied with the NOMAD detector exposed to the wide band neutrino beam generated by 450 GeV protons at the CERN SPS. For the first time the f₀(980) meson is observed in neutrino interactions. The statistical significance of its observation is 6 standard deviations. The presence of f₂(1270) in neutrino interactions is reliably established. The average multiplicity of these three resonances is measured as a function of several kinematic variables. The experimental results are compared to the multiplicities obtained from a simulation based on the Lund model. In addition, the average multiplicity of ρ⁰(770) in antineutrino-nucleus interactions is measured

A study of backward going p and π^- in ν_μ CC interactions with the NOMAD detector

AbstractAbstract

[en] Backward proton and π^- production has been studied in ν_μ CC interactions with carbon nuclei. Detailed analyses of the momentum distributions, of the production rates, and of the general features of events with a backward going particle, have been carried out in order to understand the mechanism producing these particles. The backward proton data have been compared with the predictions of the reinteraction and the short range correlation models

AbstractAbstract

[en] A study of strange particle production in ν_μ charged current interactions has been performed using the data from the NOMAD experiment. Yields of neutral strange particles (K⁰_s,Λ,Λ-bar) have been measured. Mean multiplicities are reported as a function of the event kinematic variables E_ν, W² and Q² as well as of the variables describing particle behaviour within a hadronic jet: x_F, z and p_T². Decays of resonances and heavy hyperons with identified K⁰_s and Λ in the final state have been analyzed. Clear signals corresponding to K^*±, Σ^*±, Ξ^- and Σ⁰ have been observed

AbstractAbstract

[en] The Λ polarization in ν_μ charged current interactions has been measured in the NOMAD experiment. The event sample (8087 reconstructed Λ 's) is more than an order of magnitude larger than that of previous bubble chamber experiments, while the quality of event reconstruction is comparable. We observe negative polarization along the W -boson direction which is enhanced in the target fragmentation region: P_x(x_F<0)=-0.21±0.04(stat)±0.02(sys) . In the current fragmentation region we find P_x(x_F>0)=-0.09±0.06(stat)±0.03(sys) . These results provide a test of different models describing the nucleon spin composition and the spin transfer mechanisms. A significant transverse polarization (in the direction orthogonal to the Λ production plane) has been observed for the first time in a neutrino experiment: P_y=-0.22±0.03(stat)±0.01(sys) . The dependence of the absolute value of P_y on the Λ transverse momentum with respect to the hadronic jet direction is in qualitative agreement with the results from unpolarized hadron-hadron experiments
