We have measured the total cross section for electron-positron annihilation into three or more hadrons, with at least two charged particles in the final state. The measurement was made at a center-of-mass energy of 4 GeV with a 2π−sr nonmagnetic detector. With 88 events detected, we obtain a model-independent lower limit on the hadron production cross section of 9.6 ± 1.4 nb; a calculation of detection efficiency based on invariant phase-space production of pions leads to a total cross section of 26 ± 6 nb. This cross section is 4.7 ± 1.1 times the theoretical total cross section for e+e−→μ+μ−. The average charged multiplicity is n¯=4.2±0.6.

We have observed a second sharp peak in the cross section for e+e−→hadrons at a center-of-mass energy of 3.695±0.004 GeV. The upper limit of the full width at half-maximum is 2.7 MeV.

We have observed a very sharp peak in the cross section for e+e−→hadrons, e+e−, and possibly μ+μ− at a center-of-mass energy of 3.105±0.003 GeV. The upper limit to the full width at half-maximum is 1.3 MeV.

Search for Narrow Resonances in e+ e- Annihilation in the Mass Region 3.2-GeV to 5.9-GeV

Phys.Rev.Lett. 34 (1975) 762, 1975.
Inspire Record 100594 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21228

We have searched the mass region 3.2 to 5.9 GeV for evidence of narrow resonances in e+e−→hadrons. We find no evidence for any such resonances other than the ψ(3695) in this region with a sensitivity ranging from about 12 to 45% of the integrated cross section of the ψ(3695). The more stringent bounds apply to resonances of a few MeV width, while the looser bounds apply to resonances of up to 20 MeV width.

Total Cross-Section for Hadron Production by electron-Positron Annihilation Between 2.4-GeV and 5.0-GeV Center-Of-Mass Energy

Phys.Rev.Lett. 34 (1975) 764, 1975.
Inspire Record 100592 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21227

The total cross section for hadron production by e+e− annihilation has been measured at center-of-mass energies between 2.4 and 5.0 GeV. Aside from the very narrow resonances ψ(3105) and ψ(3695), the cross section varies between 32 and 17 nb over this region with structure in the vicinity of 4.1 GeV.

Inspire Record 100657 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21242

We present cross sections for e+e−→hadrons, e+e−, and μ+μ− near 3095 MeV. The ψ(3095) resonance is established as having an assignment JPC=1−−. The mass is 3095 ±4 MeV. The partial width to electrons is Γe=4.8±0.6 keV and the total width Γ=69±15 keV. Total rates and interference measurements for the lepton channels are in accord with μ−e universality.

Observation of a Resonance at 4.4-GeV and Additional Structure Near 4.1-GeV in e+ e- Annihilation

Inspire Record 108144 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21093

We observe a resonancelike structure in the total cross section for hadron production by e+e− colliding beams at a mass of 4414 ± 7 MeV having a total width Γ=33±10 MeV. From the area under this resonance, we deduce the partial width to electron pairs to be Γee=440±140 eV. Further structure of comparable width is present near 4.1 GeV.

Inspire Record 152393 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20733

Three narrow resonances have been observed in e+e− annihilation into hadrons at total energies between 9.4 and 10.4 GeV. Measurements of mass spacing and ratios of lepton pair widths support the interpretation of these "ϒ" states as the lowest triplet-S levels of the bb¯ quark-antiquark system.
