We study the production of π + 's and protons at 90° with p t>1.15 GeV and their correlations with forward protons. Fewer forward protons are observed for a 90° proton trigger than for a π + trigger. This is in qualitative agreement with the idea of an effective diquark scattering mechanism. Additionally, we observe that a K + produced at 90° is correlated with an enhanced forward production of λ O .

$\Lambda^0$ Polarization in Proton Proton Interactions From $sqrt{s} = 31$-{GeV} to 62-{GeV}

Phys.Lett.B 185 (1987) 209, 1987.
Inspire Record 235588 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30196

We report Λ 0 -hyperon polarization measurements at the CERN intersecting storage rings from √ s of 31 to 62 GeV. P Λ 0 changes insignificantly, +(0.8±1.7)%, over this range of √ s . However, P Λ 0 is observed to grow with Feynman- x F and with transverse momentum. At an average p t of 1.1 GeV/ c , P Λ 0 depends linearly on x F and approaches −40% at x F =0.8.

Observation of Longitudinal Event Structure in Proton Diffractive Dissociation at the {ISR}

Inspire Record 219984 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30272

We study the internal structure of a forward-going pπ + π − π + π − system, with invariant mass in the range 2.5-4 GeV, produced through diffractive dissociation of a beam proton at the ISR. The shape of the system, as seen in its center-of-mass, deviates strongly from isotropic phase space and possesses, rather, a longitudinal structure with a major axis along the incoming proton direction. The final state proton momentum is aligned in the direction of the incoming proton, an effect which becomes more pronounced with increasing diffractive mass.

Evidence for Pomeron Single Quark Interactions in Proton Diffraction at the {ISR}

Inspire Record 216801 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30332

Measurements are presented of two exclusive diffractive reactions, pp → (Λ 0 φ 0 K + ) p and pp → (Λ 0 Λ 0 p)p , at √ s = 63 GeV . Pronounced correlations with the beam direction are observed (in the rest frame of the forward-going bracketed system) for those outgoing particles which contain the beam valence quarks. In each case there is a forward-Λ 0 in correlation with a backward K + or p, respectively. No such behavior is seen for the particles which do not contain beam valence quarks (φ 0 and Λ 0 , respectively) . Interpreted as examples of pomeron-proton scattering, these results constitute evidence that, for these final states, the pomeron interacts with a single valence quark and apparently back-scatters it. The subsequent hadronization leads to a longitudinal event structure.

We report results of an inclusive measurement of the charmed baryon, Λ c , in the forward direction of proton-proton interactions with s =63 GeV . The signal, seen in the final state Λ s π + π + π − , has 6.0 σ significance with about 620 events on a large background and corresponds to a cross section times branching ratio of 2.84±0.50±0.72 μ b for Feynman- x F > 0.5 in both hemispheres. Asymmetries are observed in the decay angular distributions which are characteristic of weak decays and have a combined 3.0 σ significance.

Comparison of $\bar{p} p$ and $p p$ Elastic Scattering With $0.6-{\rm GeV}^ < t < 2.1-{\rm GeV}^2$ at the {CERN} {ISR}

Inspire Record 206289 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30431

p p and pp elastic scattering differential cross sections are presented for momentum transfer 0.6< t <2.1 GeV 2 and √ s = 53 GeV. Measurements were made in the same apparatus at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings. The p p and pp results are in statistical agreement with one another over the entire t range, although the point at t =1.32 GeV 2 is 1.5 σ above the pp data. The p p points appear to have the same shape as the predictions of Donnachie and Landshoff but are significantly lower in magnitude for 0.9< t <1.5 GeV 2 .

In an experiment at the CERN intersecting storage rings with √ s = 31 GeV, we have measured αP , the product of asymmetry parameter and polarization, for Λ 0 's and Λ 0 's produced in p p and pp interactions, respectively. The ratio, (αP) Λ /(αP Λ = −1.04±0.29 , is consistent with the value −1, and constitutes the first test of CP invariance in Λ decay.

Differences in Leading Baryon Production From $p \bar{p}$ and $p p$ Collisions With $\sqrt{s}=31$-{GeV} at the {CERN} {ISR}

Significant differences are observed between forward-produced Δ ++ (1232) and Λ 0 's in pp interactions and their corresponding anti-particles in p p interactions, as expected from quark counting and single q q annihilation. A possible relationship between these results and the p p -pp total cross section difference is discussed.

Inspire Record 419962 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.42290

We present results from a search for anomalous WW and WZ production in ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV. We used ppbar->evjjX events observed during the 1992-1993 run of the Fermilab Tevatron collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 13.7 +- 0.7 pb^-1. A fit to the transverse momentum spectrum of the W boson yields direct limits on the CP-conserving anomalous WWgamma and WWZ coupling parameters of -0.9 &lt; delta kappa &lt; 1.1 (with lambda = 0) and -0.6 &lt; lambda &lt; 0.7 (with delta kappa = 0) at the 95% confidence level, for a form factor scale Lambda = 1.5 TeV, assuming that the WWgamma and WWZ coupling parameters are equal.
