HELICITY OF $mu$$sup -$ MESONS MOTT SCATTERING OF POLARIZED MUONS

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Letters
In order to find the helicity of the neutrino nu u associated with the mu meson, the reaction pi --- mu -+ nu /sub mu / is studied. The helicity is found from the asymmetry in the Mott scattering of the polarized mu - mesons produced in the reaction. It is found that the helicities of the nu mu and nu /sub e/ are equal. (T.F.H.)
