2 2 Unification of Weak and E&M Force SU(2)—weak isospin—Triplet of gauge bosons U(1)—weak hypercharge—Single gauge boson Electroweak Lagrangian: J , J  Y  isospin and hypercharge currents g, g 0 couplings between currents and fields Weinberg-Salam model and sin 2 (  W ) Remember—I’m not the expert here. Gary Larson, The Far Side Vector: g i V = t 3L (i) – 2q i sin 2 (  W ) Axial: g i A = t 3L (i) Charge Weak isospin Standard Model parameters: Charge, e,  em g, G F  lifetime M Z sin 2 (  W )

8 8 Criteria for DIS-Parity with baseline equipment General Experimental Criteria: DIS regime: –Maximize Q 2 (3.0-4.0 GeV 2 ) –Large W 2 ( > 4GeV 2 ) Minimize uncertainty from parton distributions: –Deuterium target (d/u ratio vs nuclear effects) –x<0.7 Maximize sensitivity to sin 2  W –Large Y Expt. Assumptions: 60 cm liquid deuterium target 11 GeV beam @ 90mA 85% polarization § 0.5% Rates which can be handled: –1MHz DIS –  /e ¼ 1 ) 1 MHz pions –2 MHz Total rate Implementation  /e separation ) gas Cherenkov counters ¼ 6 GeV thresh. Rate requires flash ADC’s or Scaler-based DAQ on Cherenkov and Calorimeters—this is a counting experiment!!

13 13 Extracted Signal—It’s all in the binning Fit Asymmetry data as fn. of Y A = A 0 [ (2C 1u – C 1d ) + Y(2C 2u – C 2d )] intercept = 2C 1u – C 1d (QWeak) slope = 2C 2u – C 2d

14 14 Exp. Constraints on C 1u, C 1d, C 2u and C 2d Present experimental constraints are wide open, except for APV (1 standard deviation limits shown) Combined result significantly constrains 2C 2u –C 2d. PDG 2C 2u –C 2d = –0.08 § 0.24 Combined  (2C 2u –C 2d ) = § 0.014

15 15 DIS-Parity: Conclusions Measurements of sin 2 (  W ) below M Z provide strict tests of the Standard Model. DIS-Parity provides complementary sensitivity to other measurements. DIS-Parity Violation measurements can be carried out in at Jefferson Lab –Asymmetry is Large! Jefferson Lab:  sin 2 (  W ) = 0.0011  (2C 2u – C 2d ) = 0.014 Waiting for 12 GeV upgrade!
