Direct photons have been studied in pp̄ interactions at √ s = 24.3 GeV and in the transverse momentum ( p T ) range 3–7 GeV/ c (0.25 < x T < 0.58). The experiment was performed using an internal H 2 cluster the target in the CERN pp̄ Collider. The measured invariant cross section is compared with recent theoretical predictions.

$\bar{p} p$ Annihilation Into $\pi^+ \pi^-$ and $K^+ K^-$ From Atomic $p$ States

We have obtained the branching ratios for p p annihilation at rest into π + π − and K + K − in a pure p p initial angular momentum state L = 1. A gaseous hydrogen target at normal pressure and temperature was used and events associated with transitions of the antiprotonic atom to the 2p level were selected by detecting the Balmer X-ray series. The branching ratios for p p annihilation into π + π − and K + K − from the 2p state are (4.81 ± 0.49) × 10 −3 and (2.87 ± 0.51) × 10 −4 , respect The pion yield is slightly larger than in liquid hydrogen, where L = 0 annihilation dominates, while the kaon yield is suppressed by a factor of four. Using these and previous data, we derive the branching ratios for pp annihilation into all ππ and K K modes from S and P states. A measurement in gaseous hydrogen, without X-ray requirement, yields the branching ratios (4.30 ± 0.14) × 10 −3 and (6.92 ± 0.41) × 10 −4 . With the known branching ratios of (3.33 ± 0.17) × 10 −3 and (1.01 ± 0.05) × 10 −3 in liquid hydrogen, we find that (50.3 ± 6.4)% of all annihilations in gas at NTP occur in the initial angular momentum state L = 1.

Polarization at Small Angles in Anti-proton - Carbon Elastic Scattering at {LEAR} Energies

A double-scattering experiment of antiprotons on carbon has been carried out at the Low-Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR) at CERN, to measure the polarization parameter A p C in antiproton-carbon elastic scattering at small angles. The polarization parameter has been inferred from the azimuthal distribution of the antiprotons after the second scattering. Data have also been collected with a liquid-hydrogen target as the second scatterer, thus allowing the sign of A p C to be determined. The experiment has been performed at two momenta of the extracted antiproton beam, 800 and 1100 MeV/c. A small positive value of the polarization has been observed, compatible with energy independence and a linear increase with the momentum transfer q . Parametrizing A p C as a c q , we get a c = +0.72 0.10 +0.09 ( GeV / c ) −1 . This result is compared with potential model predictions for N̄N amplitudes through a Glauber theory calculation.

Open Beauty Production in High-energy $\pi^-$ - Tungsten Interactions

We present a study of\(B\bar B\) meson pair production inπ− interactions at 140, 194 and 286 GeV incident pion energy. At 286 GeV, where we have the best statistics, we find a model-dependent\(B\bar B\) production cross-section\(\sigma _{BB}= 14_{ - 6}^{ + 7} nb/nucleon\).

$\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ Production in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at 29-{GeV}: Indications for the $D(s$)+- Decays Into $\eta \pi^\pm$ and $\eta^\prime \pi^\pm$

η production has been investigated by the Mark II collaboration at the SLAC e+e− storage ring PEP. η particles are reconstructed by their γγ decay mode. The η fragmentation function has been measured and found to be in good agreement with the Lund-model prediction. η′ production has been measured for the first time in high-energy e+e− annihilation. There is evidence at the 3σ level for Ds± decay into ηπ± and η′π±.

PHOTON DIFFRACTIVE DISSOCIATION TO rho rho pi AND rho pi pi pi STATES

The Omega Photon collaboration Atkinson, M. ; Axon, T.J. ; Barberis, D. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 38 (1988) 535, 1988.
Inspire Record 261249 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.48824

This paper reports studies of the reactions γp→ρ π π πp and γp→ρ ρ πp. In particular a peak is reported in the ρ ρ π mass spectrum with closely similar mass and width to those of the ω ρ π peak previously reported in the reaction γp→ω ρ πp. The ratio of production cross sections is found to be ρ ρ π/ω ρ π=0.96±0.19, in serious disagreement with the expectation from Vector Meson Dominance. A possible explanation is indicated.

Neutrino Production of Same Sign Dimuons

Schumm, B.A. ; Merritt, F.S. ; Oreglia, M.J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 60 (1988) 1618, 1988.
Inspire Record 23079 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20157

In a sample of 670 000 charged-current neutrino events, 101 μ−μ− events have been observed, with 30 GeV<Eν<600 GeV and Pμ>9 GeV/c for both muons. After background subtraction, 18.5±13.9 events remain, yielding a prompt rate of (5.5±4.1)×10−5 per charged-current event. A sample of 124 000 antineutrino events yields 15 μ+μ+ events, giving 6.4±4.2 events after background subtraction and a prompt rate of (1.0±0.7)×10−4 per charged-current event. The numbers and kinematic distributions of these events are consistent with standard model sources.

The Production of $J/\psi$ in 200-{GeV}/a Oxygen - Uranium Interactions

The NA 38 collaboration Abreu, M.C. ; Alimi, M. ; Baglin, C. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 38 (1988) 117, 1988.
Inspire Record 261007 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29826

The dimuon production in 200 GeV/nucleon oxygen-uranium interactions is studied by the NA 38 Collaboration. The production ofJ/ψ, correlated with the transverse energyET, is investigated and compared to the continuum, as a function of the dimuon massM and transverse momentumPT. A value of 0.64±0.06 is found for the ratio (ψ/Continuum at highET)/(ψ/Continuum at lowET), from which theJ/ψ relative suppression can be extracted. This suppression is enhanced at lowPT.

Comparison of the Particle Flow in $q \bar{q} \gamma$ and $q \bar{q} g$ Events From $e^+ e^-$ Annihilations at {PETRA}

The JADE collaboration Saada, F.Ould ; Allison, J. ; Ambrus, K. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 39 (1988) 1, 1988.
Inspire Record 260834 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15623

The particle flow distributions in the event plane of 3-jet\((e^ +e^ -\to q\bar qg)\) and of radiative 2-jet\((e^ +e^ -\to q\bar q\gamma )\) events are compared at a centre of mass energy of 35 GeV. The number of particles in the angular region opposite to the gluon in\(q\bar qg\) events is found to be significantly reduced relative to the number of particles in the region opposite to the hard photon in\(q\bar q\gamma \) events. This depletion is expected from the “string effect” observed in 3-jet events. It can be explained within the framework of QCD as arising from soft gluon interference.

Measurement of the Difference in R = $\sigma^-$l / $\sigma^-$t and $\sigma$(a) / $\sigma(D$) in Deep Inelastic $e D$, $e$ Fe and $e$ Au Scattering

Dasu, S. ; de Barbaro, P. ; Bodek, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 60 (1988) 2591, 1988.
Inspire Record 260760 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20155

We measured the differences in R=σLσT and the cross-section ratio σAσD in deep-inelastic electron scattering from D, Fe, and Au nuclei in the kinematic range 0.2≤x≤0.5 and 1≤Q2≤5 (Gev/c)2. Our results for RA−RD are consistent with zero for all x and Q2, indicating that possible contributions to R from nuclear higher-twist effects and spin-0 constituents in nuclei are not different from those in nucleons. The European Muon Collaboration effect is reconfirmed, and the low-x data from all recent experiments, at all Q2, are now in agreement.
