  4. Section I • NN weak interaction ~1 fm outside=QCD vacuum |N>=|qqq>+|qqqqq>+…=valence+sea quarks+gluons+… interacts through strong NN force, mediated by mesons |m>=|qq>+… Interactions have long (~1 fm) range, QCD conserves parity If the quarks are close, the weak interaction can act, which violates parity. Relative strong/weak amplitudes: ~ [g2/m2] / [e2/m2W]~106 Quark-quark weak interaction induces NN weak interaction Visible using parity violation q-q weak interaction: an “inside-out” probe of strong QCD ~1/100 fm range weak

  5. The Hadronic Weak Interaction W and Z boson exchange Nucleon interaction takes place on a scale of 1 fm -- short range repulsion. Due to the heavy exchange particles, the range of W± and Z0 is 1/100 fm, weak interaction probes quark-quark interaction and correlations at small distances. At low energies N-N weak interaction modeled as meson exchange with one strong PC vertex, one weak PV vertex. classical The weak PV couplings contribute in various mixtures and a variety of observables: W and Z boson exchange DDH - Model Desplanque, Donohue, Holstein 1980

  6. NPDg G o a l NPDGamma aims to measure the correlation between the neutron spin and the direction of the emitted photon in neutron-proton capture at low momentum transfer. • is a clean measurement of fπ: fp1 - 0.12 hr1 - 0.18 hw1 x 107 • •Negligible contributions from ρ, ω, 2π exchanges less than 1% contribution • •No uncertainty from nuclear wave functions

  7. NPDgamma apparatus on FP12 at LANSCE

  8. 3He polarizer Polarized Laser Light • The method of neutron polarization relies upon the spin dependence of the interaction of neutrons with 3He nuclei. • The 3He nuclei are polarized by shining circularly polarized laser light on a glass cell containing 3He atoms and a small amount of rubidium. Unpolarized Neutrons Polarized Neutrons 3He cell Helmholtz Coils

  9. RF Spin Flipper The rapid reversal of the neutron spin is important in the reduction of systematic effects. • Using the 20 Hz time scale set by the LANSCE source, the spin flipper reverse the neutron polarization direction periodically with a ↑↓↓↑↓↑↑↓ pattern. • This pattern eliminates the effects of first- and second-order time-dependent drifts in detector efficiencies.

  10. CSI(Tl) detector array ● 3π acceptance ● 48 crystals CsI (Tl) arranged in 4 rings surrounding the LH2 target ● Current-mode experiment ● γ-rate ~100MHz (single detector) ● (15 ×15 × 15) cm3 CsI (Tl) crystals

  11. 16-liter Liquid Para-Hydrogen Target • To maintain neutron spin in scattering a para- hydrogen target is required. • The Φ30cm×30cm target captures 60% of incident neutrons. • At 17 K only 0.05% of LH2 is in ortho state  1% of incident neutrons will be depolarized. • Target cryostat materials selected so that false asymmetries < 10-10. • Neutron mean free paths at 4 meV in • - ortho-hydrogen is = 2 cm, • - para-hydrogen is = 20 cm • for a n-p capture is = 50 cm. useful range 1-15 meV

  13. Asymmetry analysis and results(2) The first phase of the experiment was completed in 2006 at LANSCE. Aγ,UD = (−1.1 ± 2.1(stat.) ± 0.2(sys.)) × 10−7 Aγ,LR = (−1.9 ± 2.0(stat.) ± 0.2(sys.)) × 10−7 Systematics, e.g: ● activation of materials, e.g. cryostat windows Stern-Gerlach steering ● in magnetic field gradients L-R asymmetries leaking into ● U-D angular distribution (np elastic, Mott-Schwinger...) scattering of circularly polarized ●gammas from magnetized iron (cave walls, floor...) → estimated and expected to be negligible Neutron time-of-flight from pulsed source (msec, En1/t2)

Scattering of polarized gamma rays by magnetized iron Neutron Spin = +/- LH Target •In the (polarized)n+p->D+gamma reaction, the gamma has a small circular polarization •the scattering cross section is spin dependent.

  20. Monte Calro Simulation We plan to simulate the GammDNP reaction in the Geant4 code. We are building the geometry in the code. results apparatus design Geant4 simulation geometry

What is the next for GammaDNP ? • Find the relationship between the Asymmetry and the coupling constants at the neutron energy of ~20MeV. • Do the Monte Calro simulation of GammaDNP • Analysis the source of systematic effects, the corresponding physics process • Simulate and calculate the systematic effects.

SectionIII Conclusion of N+P→Gamma+D and Gamma+D→N+P ★ the NPDGamma experiment have completed its first phase at LANSCE and will start its second data taking in early 2010 at ORNL. ★The GammaDNP experiment is essential to determine the constant of h2ρ. And the relationship of parity-violating Asymmetry and coupling constants is energy dependent. ★based on the SLEGS, it is possible to perform the GammaDNP experiment in the future. ★ The cooperation with NPDGamma group wil help us to draw valuable experience , and continue cooperation for the GammaDNP.
