First Determination of the Weak Charge of the Proton

TL;DR: The Qweak experiment has measured the parity-violating asymmetry in polarized e-p elastic scattering at Q2 = 0.025(GeV/c)2, employing 145 microamps of 89% longitudinally polarized electrons on a 34.4cm long liquid hydrogen target at Jefferson Lab.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precision Measurement of the Weak Charge of the Proton

TL;DR: In this paper, the weak charge of the proton was measured using parity-violating (PV) polarized electron-proton scattering asymmetry, and the value of Q_W^p was derived from the predicted neutral electroweak force.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precision measurement of the weak charge of the proton

TL;DR: The results show that precision parity-violating measurements enable searches for physics beyond the standard model that can compete with direct searches at high-energy accelerators and, together with astronomical observations, can provide fertile approaches to probing higher mass scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Load-locked dc high voltage GaAs photogun with an inverted-geometry ceramic insulator

TL;DR: In this paper, a spin-polarized photoelectron gun was constructed that employs a compact inverted-geometry ceramic insulator for dc high voltage spinpolarization.
