The qweak experiment: A search for new physics at the tev scale by measurement of the proton's weak charge
The observed coupling of the proton to the Z-boson, i.e. the «weak charge» of the proton, varies with distance scale. The coupling has already been accurately measured at short distances by high energy experiments. Qweak will make the measurement at a momentum transfer of only 0.3 (GeV/c)2. The «run...
