Helicity Analysis of Semileptonic Hyperon Decays Including Lepton Mass Effects
Using the helicity method we derive complete formulas for the joint angular
decay distributions occurring in semileptonic hyperon decays including lepton
mass and polarization effects. Compared to the traditional covariant
calculation the helicity method allows one to organize the calculation of the
angular decay distributions in a very compact and efficient way. In the
helicity method the angular analysis is of cascade type, i.e. each decay in the
decay chain is analyzed in the respective rest system of that particle. Such an
approach is ideally suited as input for a Monte Carlo event generation program.
As a specific example we take the decay () followed by the nonleptonic decay for which we show a few examples of decay distributions which are
generated from a Monte Carlo program based on the formulas presented in this
paper. All the results of this paper are also applicable to the semileptonic
and nonleptonic decays of ground state charm and bottom baryons, and to the
decays of the top quark.Comment: Published version. 40 pages, 11 figures included in the text. Typos

Calculation of the Flux of Atmospheric Neutrinos
Atmospheric neutrino-fluxes are calculated over the wide energy range from 30
MeV to 3,000 GeV for the study of neutrino-physics using the data from
underground neutrino-detectors. The atmospheric muon-flux at high altitude and
at sea level is studied to calibrate the neutrino-fluxes at low energies and
high energies respectively. The agreement of our calculation with observations
is satisfactory. The uncertainty of atmospheric neutrino-fluxes is also
studied.Comment: 51 page
