Abstract:
Inelastic muon-nucleon interactions will be studied using the nuclear emulsion technique. The momentum of the primary muon beam is 15.8 GeV/C. Muons and other leptons of high energy make excellent probes to study mucleon structure. Muon beams of small contamination, using accelerators, became available in 1965, but the data is limited.In this experiment, we will scan several nuclear emulsion pellicles for muon-nucleon inelastic scatters and study the angular distribution of the scattered muon at 15.8 GeV/C. The results will be compared with previous data and also with the theoretical form factor predictions at this momentum.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306
