The TWIST Collaboration has completed its measurement of the three muon decay parameters rho, delta, and P_muxi. This paper describes our determination of rho, which governs the shape of the overall momentum spectrum, and delta, which controls the momentum dependence of the parity-violating decay asymmetry. The results are rho=0.74977pm 0.00012(stat.)pm 0.00023(syst.) and delta = 0.75049pm 0.00021(stat.)pm 0.00027(syst.). These are consistent with the value of 3/4 given for both parameters in the standard model, and each is over a factor of 10 more precise than the measurements published prior to TWIST. Our final results on rho, delta, and P_muxi have been incorporated into a new global analysis of all available muon decay data, resulting in improved model-independent constraints on the possible weak interactions of right-handed particles.

We review the recent measurements of the rare pion decays: Pi+ -> Pi0 e+ Nu [pion beta, Pi_(e3), or Pi_beta decay], radiative decay Pi+ -> e+ Nu Gamma [Pi_(e2Gamma) or RPD], and Pi+ -> e+ Nu [Pi_(e2)] decay, as well as the radiative muon decay, Mu ->
e Nu Nu-bar Gamma, their theoretical implications, and prospects for further improvement.
The TWIST experiment has made a precision measurement of three of the decay parameters in muon decay. The newest results are rho = 0.75014 +-0.00017(stat) +-0.00044(sys) +-0.00011(eta) and delta = 0.75067 +-0.00030(stat) +-0.00067(sys). Together with
previously published results, improved constraints on possible extensions of the electroweak Standard Model are derived.
The Michel parameter xi has been determined from a measurement of the longitudinal polarization of positrons emitted in the decay of polarized and depolarized muons. The result, xi = 0.981 +- 0.045stat +- 0.003syst, is consistent with the Standard Mo
del prediction of unity, and provides an order of magnitude improvement in the relative precision of this parameter. This value sets new constraints on exotic couplings beyond the dominant V-A description of the leptonic weak interaction.
The muon decay parameter delta characterizes momentum dependence of the parity-violating muon decay asymmetry. A new measurement of delta has been performed using the first physics data recorded by the TWIST experiment at TRIUMF. The obtained value,
delta=0.74964+-0.00066(stat.)+-0.00112(syst.), is consistent with the Standard Model expectation delta=3/4. This is the first determination of delta performed using a blind analysis technique. Combined with other data, the measurement sets new model-independent limits on effective right-handed couplings of the muon. Improved limits on the product of another muon decay parameter, xi, and the muon polarization in pion decay, Pmu, are obtained in the form: 0.9960<Pmu*xi<=xi<1.0040, at 90% confidence level. Implications for left-right symmetric models are discussed.
The TWIST collaboration has performed new measurements of two of the parameters that describe muon decay: $rho$, which governs the shape of the overall momentum spectrum, and $delta$, which governs the momentum dependence of the parity-violating deca
y asymmetry. This analysis gives the results $rho=0.75014pm 0.00017(text{stat})pm 0.00044(text{syst})pm 0.00011(eta)$, where the last uncertainty arises from the correlation between $rho$ and the decay parameter $eta$, and $delta = 0.75067pm 0.00030(text{stat})pm 0.00067(text{syst})$. These are consistent with the value of 3/4 given for both parameters in the Standard Model of particle physics, and are a factor of two more precise than the measurements previously published by TWIST. A new global analysis of all available muon decay data incorporating these results is presented. Improved lower and upper limits on the decay parameter $P_mu^pixi$ of $0.99524 < P_mu^pixi leq xi < 1.00091$ at 90% confidence are determined, where $P_mu^pi$ is the polarization of the muon when it is created during pion decay, and $xi$ governs the muon decay asymmetry. These results set new model-independent constraints on the possible weak interactions of right-handed particles. Specific implications for left-right symmetric models are discussed.
