Determination of the Number of Light Neutrino Species

The ALEPH collaboration Decamp, D. ; Deschizeaux, B. ; Lees, J.P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 231 (1989) 519-529, 1989.
Inspire Record 282904 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29758

The cross-section for e + e − → hadrons in the vicinity of the Z boson peak has been measured with the ALEPH detector at the CERN Large Electron Positron collider, LEP. Measurements of the Z mass, M z = (91.174±0.070) GeV, the Z width Γ z =(2.68±0.15) GeV, and of the peak hadronic cross-section, σ had peak =(29.3±1.2) nb, are presented. With the constraints of the standard electroweak model, the number of light neutrino species is found to be N v =3.27±0.30. this results rules out of the possibility of a fourth type of light neutrino at 98% CL.

A Determination of the Properties of the Neutral Intermediate Vector Boson Z0

The L3 collaboration Adeva, B. ; Adriani, O. ; Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 231 (1989) 509, 1989.
Inspire Record 282041 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29768

We report the results of first physics runs of the L3 detector at LEP. Based on 2538 hadron events, we determined the mass m z 0 and the width Γ z 0 of the intermediate vector boson Z 0 to be m z 0 =91.132±0.057 GeV (not including the 46 MeV LEP machine energy uncertainty) and Γ z 0 =2.588±0.137 GeV. We also determined Γ invisible =0.567±0.080 GeV, corresponding to 3.42±0.48 number of neutrino flavors. We also measured the muon pair cross section and determined the branching ratio Γ μμ = Γ h =0.056±0.006. The partial width of Z 0 →e + e − is Γ ee =88±9±7 MeV.

Measurements of Z Boson Resonance Parameters in e+ e- Annihilation

Abrams, G.S. ; Adolphsen, Chris ; Averill, D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 2173, 1989.
Inspire Record 281818 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20033

We have measured the mass of the Z boson to be 91.14±0.12 GeV/c2, and its width to be 2.42−0.35+0.45 GeV. If we constrain the visible width to its standard-model value, we find the partial width to invisible decay modes to be 0.46±0.10 GeV, corresponding to 2.8±0.6 neutrino species, with a 95%-confidence-level upper limit of 3.9.

Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 724, 1989.
Inspire Record 280007 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20034

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.

First Measurements of Hadronic Decays of the $Z$ Boson

The MARK-II collaboration Abrams, G.S. ; Adolphsen, Chris ; Aleksan, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 1558, 1989.
Inspire Record 282670 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20044

We have observed hadronic final states produced in the decays of Z bosons. In order to study the parton structure of these events, we compare the distributions in sphericity, thurst, aplanarity, and number of jets to the predictions of several QCD-based models and to data from lower energies. The data and models agree within the present statistical precision.

Measurement of the Parameters of the $\psi^{\prime\prime}$(3770) Resonance

Abrams, G.S. ; Alam, M.S. ; Blocker, C.A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 21 (1980) 2716, 1980.
Inspire Record 142644 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24185

We present a measurement of the cross section for hadron production by e+e− annihilation in the vicinity of the previously observed resonance near 3.77 GeV. The data are used to determine the parameters of the ψ(3770) resonance. The values found are: mass, 3764±5 MeV/c2, total width, 23.5±5 MeV, and partial width to electron pairs, 276±50 eV.

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

Siegrist, J. ; Abrams, G.S. ; Boyarski, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 36 (1976) 700, 1976.
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.
