Review of experimental measurements of weak neutral-current interactions

Creators

Description

Progress in experimental measurements and in analysis of the weak neutral-current interaction between leptons and between leptons and hadrons is reviewed. New results on neutrino-electron scattering, and on parity violation in atomic transitions and in electron-deuteron scattering, are discussed and combined. The ambiguity of V versus A coupling of the electron current is resolved. Progress in determining the quark current coupling is achieved by new data on its isospin dependence. The question of generation universality is discussed in the context of the GIM mechanism and confronted with experimental data. The nucleon structure has been probed in deep inelastic neutral-current scattering
