The measurement of Bethe-Heitler bremstrahlung in muon-hydrogen interactions at 200 GeV

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

Using a lead glass detector installed in the EMC forward spectrometer radiative photons have been measured in 200 GeV muon-hydrogen collisions. The results are compared with the standard QED one photon emission theory of Mo and Tsai and also with the more recent predictions of a multiphoton emission theory of Chahine. We conclude that there is no evidence for any deviation from the standard theory, in terms of the yield and angular distribution of photons with fractional energy,z>0.7.
