A Monte Carlo study of Pion Beta Decay in the RMC spectrometer

Through Monte Carlo simulation, this thesis assesses the efficiency, strengths and weaknesses of the TRIUMF Radiative Muon Capture pair-spectrometer for the purpose of performing a measurement of Pion Beta Decay. We discuss the importance of Pion Beta Decay in terms of current theories of particl...
