Abstract

Interest in the strange nucleon sea has been renewed when it was realized that the strangeness asymmetry s{sup -} = s - {bar s} plays a prominent role in the interpretation of the NuTeV weak mixing angle anomaly. The author reviews the NLO QCD calculation of the neutrino-production of opposite-sign dimuons as the experimental signature of the strange quark parton density. Results from a recent CTEQ fit are presented and discussed with respect to their stability under NLO corrections and their impact on the NuTeV measurement.

Measurement of the strange - antistrange asymmetry at NLO in QCD from NuTeV dimuon data

Thesis/Dissertation Mason, David

A measurement of the asymmetry between the strange and antistrange quark distributions, from a next to leading order QCD analysis of dimuon events measured by the NuTeV experiment at Fermilab is presented. Neutrino charged current events with two muons in the final state provide a direct means for studying charm production and measuring the strange sea. NuTeV's sign selected beam allows independent measurement of the strange and antistrange seas. An improved measurement of the neutrino and antineutrino forward dimuon cross section tables, using the complete charged current event sample for normalization is performed. These tables are then analyzed at NLOmore »« less

The Strange-Antistrange Asymmetry, The NuTeV Measurement and a Peek at Future Prospects.

Journal Article Mason, D - AIP Conference Proceedings

The strange asymmetry measurement from NuTeV is discussed, followed by a brief look at measurement prospects from other current and future neutrino DIS experiments. The NuTeV measurement of the difference between the strange and antistrange quark distributions from dimuon events utilizes the first complete NLO QCD description of the process. Dimuon events, resulting from the semi-muonic decay of charmed particles produced in charged current neutrino interactions, allow direct study of the strange quark content of the nucleon. NuTeV's sign selected beam produced uniquely pure samples of neutrino and antineutrino initiated dimuon events, allowing independent measurement of the strange and antistrangemore » quark distributions.« less

NuTeV Strange/Antistrange Sea Measurements from Neutrino Charm Production

Journal Article Mason, D - AIP Conference Proceedings

An updated forward dimuon cross section from v - N DIS charm production at the NuTeV experiment at FNAL is presented. Charged current interactions in neutrino-nucleon scattering provide a unique means of studying nucleon structure. Additionally, charged current events with two oppositely charged muons in the final state allow direct study of charm production and measurement of the strange sea. NuTeV's sign selected beam gives it the ability to extract the strange and antistrange seas independently, for which an asymmetry has been predicted in some theoretical models, and which is currently of intense interest in interpreting neutrino electroweak results.

Influence of heavy-quark recombination on the nucleon strangeness asymmetry

Journal Article Puze, Gao; Boqiang, Ma - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

The nucleon strange and antistrange distribution asymmetry is an important issue in the study of the nucleon structure. In this work, we show that the heavy-quark recombination processes from a perturbative QCD picture can give a sizable influence on the measurement of the nucleon strangeness asymmetry from charged-current charm production processes, such as the CCFR and NuTeV dimuon measurements. When the influence of heavy-quark recombination is considered, a positive effective {delta}S{sub HR}{sup -} should be added to the initially extracted strangeness asymmetry S{sup -}{identical_to}{integral}dx[s(x)-s(x)]x, supporting the strangeness asymmetry S{sup -} being positive, which is helpful to explain the NuTeV anomalymore »« less

Measurement of the Nucleon Strange-Antistrange Asymmetry at Next-to-Leading Order in QCD from NuTeV Dimuon Data

Journal Article Mason, D; Brau, J; Drucker, R; ... - Phys.Rev.Lett.99:192001,2007

The authors present a new measurement of the difference between the nucleon strange and antistrange quark distributions from dimuon events recorded by the NuTeV experiment at Fermilab. This analysis is the first to use a complete next to leading order QCD description of charm production from neutrino scattering. Dimuon events in neutrino deep inelastic scattering allow direct and independent study of the strange and antistrange content of the nucleon. They find a positive strange asymmetry. They also report a new measurement of the charm mass.
