A direct determination of the number of light neutrino families from e<SUP>+</SUP> e<SUP>-</SUP> → vvγ at LEP

The L3 detector at LEP has been used to determine the number of light neutrino families by measuring the cross section of single photon even in e+e - collisions at energies near the Z° resonance. We have observed 61 single photon candidates with more than 1.5 GeV of deposited energy in the barrel el...

description The L3 detector at LEP has been used to determine the number of light neutrino families by measuring the cross section of single photon even in e+e - collisions at energies near the Z° resonance. We have observed 61 single photon candidates with more than 1.5 GeV of deposited energy in the barrel electromagnetic calorimeter, for a total integrated luminosity of 3.0 pb-1. From a likelihood fit to the single photon cross sections, we determine Nv = 3.24 ± 0.46 (statistical) _+ 0.22 (systematic).
