Abstract

The ϱ− radiative decay width has been measured by studying the production of ϱ− via the Primakoff effect by 200 GeV incident π− on Cu and Pb targets. This width was obtained by fitting the measured dσ/dt for ϱ production with the theoretical coherent differential cross section including both the electromagnetic and strong contributions. The measured radiative width value is 81 ± 4 ± 4 keV: it is consistent with the ratio GAMMA(ro -> pi g)/GAMMA(omega -> pi g) ~ 1/9 source as expected from the vector dominance and the quark model.
