dc.description.abstract本論文尋找可能的中性K介子衰變至pi0介子以及輕準純量
sgoldstino(代稱X粒子)。所使用數據來自日本國家高能加速器
中心質子加速器的E391a 偵測器,於九十四年二月至三月間取
得。
經由事例重建,我們針對四組可能的質量範圍搜尋,並無發
現顯著訊號,因此給予90%信心水準之衰變分率上限,分別為
Br(KL->pi0X(181.7 MeV)) < 2.26e-6
Br(KL->pi0X(198.0 MeV)) < 1.97e-6
Br(KL->pi0X(214.3 MeV)) < 1.81e-6
Br(KL->pi0X(230.6 MeV)) < 1.17e-6

dc.description.abstractWith mX = 214.3 MeV as hinted by a previous HyperCP
experiment, we report the first search of the decay KL->pi0X
using the Run2 data sample recorded with the E391a detector
at KEK-PS. The particle X has a theoretical interpretation as
the pseudoscalar sgoldstino. It is predicted to decay
predominantly to two photons. As a result of this search, we
set a 90% confidence-level upper limit for its branching
ratio at B(KL->pi0X)<1.81e-6. We also performed a search for
the same mode assuming different mX: 181.7MeV, 198MeV,
230.6MeV and set respective 90% confidence-level upper
limits: B(KL->pi0X181.7)<2.26e-6,
B(KL->pi0X198.0)<1.97e-6 and B(KL->pi0X230.6)<1.17e-6. The
KL flux for the E391a Run2 data set is also measured to be (4.83+-0.21)e9 in the fiducial region.
