Measurements of the Branching Fractions and Decay Distributions for KL->πμνγand KL->πeνγ

We present measurements of R_Kl3rad = Gamma(KL->π\ellνγ; Egcm > 10 MeV)/Gamma(KL->π\ellν), where ell = mu or e, and Egcm is the photon energy in the kaon rest frame. These measurements are based on KL decays collected in 1997 by the KTeV (E832) experiment at Fermilab. With samples of 1385 KL->πμνγand 14221 KL->π\eνγcandidates, we find R_Km3rad = (0.530 +- 0.019)% and R_Ke3rad = (4.942 +- 0.062)%. We also examine distributions of photon energy and lepton-photon angle.

KTeV Results: Re($ε' / ε$) and Rare Decay Results

The KTeV physics program encompasses many goals including a precision measurement of the direct CP violation parameter Re($ε' / ε$) in $K \to ππ$ decays, and studies of rare neutral kaon decays. The KTeV detector collected data during the Fermilab fixed-targed runs of 1996-97 and 1999. This article focuses on the precision measurement of the direct CP violation parameter Re($ε' / ε$) using the 1996-97 data set. In addition, measurements of the neutral kaon parameters $τ_S$, $Δm$, $ϕ_{+-}$, $Δϕ$ from that data set and a new measurement of the branching fraction of $K_L \to e^+ e^- μ^+ μ^-$ from the 1997 and 1999 data also are presented.

The ZEUS Forward Plug Calorimeter with Lead-Scintillator Plates and WLS Fiber Readout

A Forward Plug Calorimeter (FPC) for the ZEUS detector at HERA has been built as a shashlik lead-scintillator calorimeter with wave length shifter fiber readout. Before installation it was tested and calibrated using the X5 test beam facility of the SPS accelerator at CERN. Electron, muon and pion beams in the momentum range of 10 to 100 GeV/c were used. Results of these measurements are presented as well as a calibration monitoring system based on a $^{60}$Co source.
