| March 10, 2017 | The REDTOP Experiment: Rare Eta Decays with a TPC for Optical Photons | Corrado Gatto, INFN, Napoli | The η meson is almost unique in the particle universe since it is a Goldstone boson and the dynamics of its decay are strongly constrained. Because the eta has no charge, decays that violate conservation laws can occur without interfering with a corresponding current. The integrated eta meson samples collected in earlier experiments have been less than... More » |

It represents a background for direct dark matter detection experiments, as well as a possible signal for astrophysical neutrinos. Furthermore, because the process... More » |
