Experimental signals for hyperphotons
- 1. Physics Department, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, New York 11973
Description
We discuss experiments for detecting hyperphotons (γ/sub Y/), which are the real quanta of a hypercharge field whose existence has been suggested by a recent reanalysis of the Eoetvoes experiment. It is shown that γ/sub Y/ is best detected as an unobserved neutral in the decays K+-→π+-γ/sub Y/ and K/sub S/0→π0γ/sub Y/, and that existing experimental limits provide nontrivial constraints on the strength and range of possible hypercharge couplings
