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

Augustin, J.E. ; Boyarski, A. ; Breidenbach, Martin ; et al.
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.

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

Boyarski, A. ; Breidenbach, Martin ; Bulos, F. ; et al.
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.

The Quantum Numbers and Decay Widths of the psi (3095)

Boyarski, A. ; Breidenbach, Martin ; Bulos, F. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 34 (1975) 1357, 1975.
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

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.

Total Cross-Section for Hadron Production by e+ e- Annihilation at PETRA Energies

The JADE collaboration Bartel, W. ; Canzler, T. ; Cords, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 88 (1979) 171-176, 1979.
Inspire Record 142874 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27277

The cross section for the process e + e − → multihadrons has been measured at the highest PETRA energies. We measure R (the total cross section in units of the point-like e + e - → μ + μ - cross section) to be 2.9 ± 0.7, 4.0 ± 0.5, 4.6 ± 0.4 and 4.2 ± 0.6 at s of 22, 27.7, 30 and 31.6 GeV, respectively. The observed average multiplicity, together with existing low energy data, indicate a rapid increase in multiplicity with increasing energy.

Observation of Planar Three Jet Events in e+ e- Annihilation and Evidence for Gluon Bremsstrahlung

The JADE collaboration Bartel, W. ; Canzler, T. ; Cords, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 91 (1980) 142-147, 1980.
Inspire Record 143985 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.6339

Topological distributions of charged and neutral hadrons from the reaction e + e − → multihadrons are studied at √ s of about 30 GeV. An excess of planar events is observed at a rate which cannot be explained by statistical fluctuations in the standard two-jet process. The planar events, mostly consisting of a slim jet on one side and a broader jet on the other, are shown actually to possess three-jet structure by demonstrating that the broader jet itself consists of two collinear jets in its own rest system. Detailed agreement between data and predictions is obtained if the process e + e − →q q ̄ g is taken into account. This strongly suggests gluon bremsstrahlung as the origin of the planar three-jet events. By comparison of the data with the qq̄g-model we obtain a value for the strong coupling constant of α S ( q 2 = 0.17 ± 0.04.

Search for Narrow Resonances in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at c.m. Energies Between 29.90-{GeV} and 31.46-{GeV}

The JADE collaboration Bartel, W. ; Cords, D. ; Dittmann, P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 91 (1980) 152-154, 1980.
Inspire Record 152290 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27258

A search for narrow resonances in e + e − annihilation at c.m. energies between 29.90 and 31.46 GeV provides no evidence for the existence of such states. The 90% confidence upper limit on the integrated resonance cross section is 38 nb MeV, significantly below the value expected for the lowest (t,t̄) bound state.
