A New 76Ge Double Beta Decay Experiment at LNGS

This Letter of Intent has been submitted to the Scientific Committee of the INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) in March 2004. It describes a novel facility at the LNGS to study the double beta decay of 76Ge using an (optionally active) cryogenic fluid shield. The setup will allow to scrutinize with high significance on a short time scale the current evidence for neutrinoless double beta decay of 76Ge using the existing 76Ge diodes from the previous Heidelberg-Moscow and IGEX experiments. An increase in the lifetime limit can be achieved by adding more enriched detectors, remaining thereby background-free up to a few 100 kg-years of exposure.

Magnetic Moments of Baryons with a Single Heavy Quark

We calculate the magnetic moments of heavy baryons with a single heavy quark in the bound-state approach. In this approach the heavy baryons is considered as a heavy meson bound in the field of a light baryon. The light baryon field is represented as a soliton excitation of the light pseudoscalar and vector meson fields. For these calculations we adopt a model that is both chirally invariant and consistent with the heavy quark spin symmetry. We gauge the model action with respect to photon field in order to extract the electromagnetic current operator and obtain the magnetic moments by computing pertinent matrix elements of this operator between the bound state wavefunctions. We compare our predictions for the magnetic moments with results of alternative approaches for the description of heavy baryon properties.

Magnetic Moments of Baryons with a Heavy Quark

We compute magnetic moments of baryons with a heavy quark in the bound state approach for heavy baryons. In this approach the heavy baryon is considered as a heavy meson bound to a light baryon. The latter is represented as a soliton excitation of light meson fields. We obtain the magnetic moments by sandwiching pertinent components of the electromagnetic current operator between the bound state wave--functions. We extract this current operator from the coupling to the photon field after extending the action to be gauge invariant.
