The ratio R of the cross section for e+e− annihilation into hadronic final states to the QED cross section for muon-pair production is measured to be 4.34±0.45±0.30 and 4.23±0.20±0.21 at c.m. energies of 50 and 52 GeV, respectively. From these values of R and an analysis of the event shapes we deduce a 95%-confidence-level upper limit for the production rate of new heavy charge +23e or −13e quarks to be 0.19 units of R.

Hyperon Production in $e^+ e^-$ Interactions in the $\Upsilon$ Region

We report measurements from the CLEO detector of the rate of Ξ and Λ production in e+e− interactions in the upsilon region. Hyperon production from the decay of the ϒ(1s) is compared with continuum e+e− data. The ratio of the production rates of Λ (and Λ―) to K0 (and K―0) on the ϒ(1s) is 0.21 ± 0.03, much larger than in the continuum, 0.07 ± 0.01. The ratios of the production rates of the Ξ and Λ are comparable, 0.10±0.02 [ϒ(1S)] and 0.07 ± 0.02 (continuum). We discuss some implications of the data for gluon and quark fragmentation models.

Real Part of the K+- p Forward Scattering Amplitude at 4.2-GeV/c, 7-GeV/c and 10-GeV/c

The differential cross section of K − p and K + p elastic scattering has been measured at 4.2, 7 and 10 GeV/ c in the very forward region of scattering angles. The measurements have been made at the CERN PS by means of multiwire proportional chambers and counters. The region of momentum transfers t is 0.001 ⩽ | t | ⩽ 0.10 GeV 2 at the highest momentum and 0.001 ⩽ | t | ⩽ 0.03 GeV 2 at the lowest. Over these regions the Coulomb and the nuclear amplitudes reach their maximum interference. We have used a parametrisation of the above amplitudes to determine the value of the real part of the nuclear forward scattering amplitude. A dispersion relation fit has then been performed using these and earlier measurements; the asymptotic behaviour of the K ± p real parts has been examined in the light of this fit.

Structure in the omega pi pi System at the A2 Mass Region

Karshon, U. ; Mikenberg, G. ; Pitluck, S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 32 (1974) 852, 1974.
Inspire Record 761 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21283

Evidence is presented for an enhancement in the ωππ mass spectrum at the A2 mass region in π+p interactions at 5 GeV/c. Assuming this effect to be the A2, we calculate the decay rate relative to the ρπ decay mode and obtain the results 0.29 ± 0.08 and 0.10 ± 0.04 for the two final states A20Δ++ and A2+p, respectively. Possible explanations of the discrepancy between these numbers are suggested.
