The analyzing power (spin-dependent azimuthal asymmetry) has been observed for the first time in the nuclear Coulomb coherent production process, the ‘‘Primakoff process,’’ with the use of the newly constructed 185-GeV/c Fermilab polarized proton beam. We have observed a large asymmetry of this process in the regions of ‖t’‖<0.001 (GeV/c)2 and 1.36<M(π0p)<1.52 GeV/c2, where the Coulomb process is predominant. The measured asymmetry is consistent with the analyzing power of the existing low-energy γ+p→π0+p data.

The two-jet differential cross section d3σ(p¯p→jet 1+jet 2+X)/dEtdη1dη2, averaged over -0.6≤η1≤0.6, at √s =1.8 TeV, has been measured in the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The predictions of leading-order quantum chromodynamics for most choices of structure functions show agreement with the data.

We have measured the deuteron A ( Q 2 ) structure function in the momentum transfer region between 1 and 18 fm −2 . The accuracy of the data ranges from 2 to 6%. These measurements allow a sensitive test of theoretical predictions. We find that meson-exchange currents and relativistic corrections significantly improve the agreement between experiment and theory. We investigate the sensitivity of A ( Q 2 ) to the nucleon-nucleon interaction and to the neutron electric form factor G E n ( Q 2 ). Our analysis shows that G E n ( Q 2 ) can be extracted from these data with a significantly improved accuracy. The model dependence of this analysis is discussed.

Analyzing powers have been measured for the quasi-elastic ( p → , 2p ) scattering in carbon and copper using a KEK 3.5 GeV polarized proton beam. The present result shows relatively larger analyzing powers compared with the ones obtained for carbon in the energy region 0.52–2.8 GeV at Saclay (Saturne). The t -dependence for C and Cu ( p → , 2p ) is compared with a calculation based on the relativistic impulse approximation and is reproduced well.

A charge asymmetry has been measured in hadron jets from e + e − annihilation at energies between 52 and 61.4 geV (〈√ s 〉=57.6 GeV). The measured asymmetry is A =11.4%±2.2%±2.1% and is consistent with the prediction of the standard model of the electroweak theory. By using the differential cross section, lower limits of the compositeness scale in eeqq contact interactions have been determined to be typically a few TeV at 95% CL.
Data are fully corrected for detector effects, resolution and radiative effects.
Small angle scattering of 280 GeV positive muons by deuterium, carbon and calcium has been measured at scattering angles down to 2 mrad. The nucleon structure function F 2 extracted from deuterium does not show a significant x dependence in the measured range of Q 2 and its Q 2 dependence is linear in log Q 2 . For calcium, a depletion of F 2 is observed at low x by 30% as compared with the values at x = 0.1 where F 2 (Ca) and F 2 (D) are not significantly different. This depletion is attributed to shadowing. The carbon structure function exhibits a similar, but less pronounced, x dependence. Such behaviour is observed to be independent of Q 2 . The data are consistent with those obtained from other charged lepton experiments both at similar and higher values of x and Q 2 and considerably extend the range of the measurements down to the low values of x to be measured in forthcoming experiments at HERA.

Using the ARGUS detector at the DORIS II e + e − storage ring at DESY, we have obtained evidence for a new charmed-strange meson which decays into D *+ K 0 . Its mass is observed to be 2535.9±0.6±2.0 MeV/ c 2 and its width to be less than 4.6 MeV/ c 2 at the 90% confidence level. No structure is observed at this mass in the D + K 0 invariant mass spectrum, which suggests that an unnatural spin-parity is preferred.

We have measured the mass of the Z boson to be 91.11±0.23 GeV/c2, and its width to be 1.61−0.43+0.60 GeV. If we constrain the visible width to its standard-model value, we find the partial width to invisible decay modes to be 0.62±0.23 GeV, corresponding to 3.8±1.4 neutrino species.

Multiplicity distributions of charged particles produced in the pseudorapidity range 0.9 < η lab < 5.5 were measured in oxygen-nucleus collisions for Al, Ag, and W target nuclei at incident energies of 60 and 200 GeV per nucleon. The multiplicity differential cross sections and the pseudorapidity distributions as a function of transverse energy are presented for the various target nuclei. The correlation between charged multiplicity and transverse energy is studied as a function of transverse energy. Data are compared with predictions of the IRIS and FRITIOF generators.
