Precise Measurement of the π+ → e+v Branching Ratio
2009
The PEN Collaboration is conducting a new measurement of the π+ → e + vL branching ratio at the Paul Scherrer Institute, with the goal uncertainty of δB/B πe2 = 5 × 10−4 or lower. At present, the combined accuracy of all published πe2 decay measurements lags behind the theoretical calculation by a factor of 40. In this contribution we report on the PEN detector configuration and its performance during two development runs done in 2007 and 2008.
