Belle II 実験ARICH 検出器の光反射ミラー部における粒子識別性能の評価Public
茨城県つくば市にある高エネルギー加速器研究機構ではBelle II 実験が今年4 月から行われている。Belle II 実験はSuperKEKB 加速器を用いて電子・陽電子を加速し衝突させ、大量のB 中間子を生成するルミノシティーフロンティア実験である。B 中間子の崩壊過程を精密に測定することにより標準模型からのズレを観測し、新物理の探索を目的としている。前身のBelle 実験ではB 中間子の稀崩壊を測定するにはデータ量が不足していたので、本実験ではルミノシティを約50 倍に増やし統計量・精度を向上させる。Belle II 検出器は各役割に応じた複数の検出器からなる複合型測定器であり、その中でもEndcap 部にあるARICH(Ring Imaging CHerenkov) 検出器は荷電K…
