Study of electromagnetic dipole moment, electric quadrupole moment and weak T-odd (CP-odd) interactions of high energy short-lived particles in straight crystals
Abstract
A particle, which moves in a crystal, experiences weak interactions with electrons and nuclei alongside with electromagnetic interaction. Measuring the polarization vector and the angular distribution of charged and neutral particles scattered by axes (planes) of an unbent (straight) crystal enables to obtain restrictions for the EDM value and for magnitudes of constants describing T-odd (CP-odd) interactions Beyond the Standard Model. Spin rotation and polarization conversion from vector to tensor one and vice versa for a channelled in a crystal hyperon enable measuring hyperon's quadrupole moment that is not possible to measure by use of laboratory available noncrystalline electric fields.
