Most events with high neutral transverse energy, E T 0 , produced in pp colisions at √ s = 62.3 GeV, are jet-like. The evidence for this is presented, based on data collected using an electromagnetic calorimeter covering 90% of 2π in azimuth. The spectrum d N /d E T 0 has been measured over the E T 0 range from 10 to 35 GeV. Properties of the observed jets are discussed.

We present data on proton-proton collisions, obtained at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings, in which two roughly back-to-back π 0 's of high transverse momentum ( p T ) were produced. The angular distribution of the dipion axis relative to the collision axis is found to be independent of both the effective mass m of the dipion system and the centre-of-mass energy √ s of the proton-proton collision. The cross-sections d σ d m at the values of √ s satisfy a scaling law of the form d σ d m = G(x) m n , where x = m(π 0 , π 0 )//trs and n = 6.5 ± 0.5 . We show from our data that the leading π 0 carries most of the momentum of the scattered parton. Given this fact, the axis of the dipion system follows closely the direction of the scattered constituents, and we exploit this to determine the angular dependence of the hard-scattering subprocess. We also compare our data with the lowest order QCD predictions using structure functions as determined in deep-inelastic scattering and fragmentation functions from electron-positron annihilation.

A measurement of direct photon production in pp collisions at a center of mass energy ∝ s =63 GeV is reported. Arrays of lead-glass calorimeters and multiwire proportional chambers were used as photon detectors. Data are presented in the transverse momentum range from 4.5 to 10 GeV/ c and compared with QCD predictions. The event structure of this sample is compared with that of a set dominated by high transverse momentum π O ́ ' s .

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.

A comparison between p p and pp interactions at √ s = 52.7 GeV is presented for a total neutral transverse energy ( E T o ) trigger and for a high transverse momentum ( p T ) neutral cluster trigger. The rate of production of events in the range 6< E T o <20 GeV is observed to be 10% higher in p p collisions than in pp collisions. A study of the structure of the events shows this excess to be due to more isotropic events being produced in p p collisions. The ratio of the production cross section for single neutral clusters in p p and pp interactions in the range 1.25< p T <10 GeV/ c does not significantly differ from unity.

The inclusive cross section for larger p T π 0 production near 90° in p-p collisions at the CERN ISR is presented for centre-of-mass energies 30.7, 53.1 and 62.4 GeV. The data are inconsistent with scaling of the form p T − n F ( x T ), with constant n or with n allowed to depend on x T = 2p T / s . For s = 53.1 and 62.4 GeV , the value of n found for 3.5 < p T < 7.0 GeV/ c is n = 8.0 ± 0.5, in agreement with previous experiments. However, for 7.5 < p T < 14.0 GeV/ c the value becomes n = 5.1 ± 0.4.

A sample of 105 e + e − events with an invariant mass greater than 11 GeV/ c 2 produced in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 62.3 GeV is discussed. Cross sections are presented as a function of mass and transverse momentum. The multiplicity, transverse momentum, and azimuthal dependence of associated particles are also studied.

The transverse energy distributions have been measured for interactions of 32 S nuclei with Al, Ag, W, Pt, Pb, and U targets, at an incident energy of 200 GeV per nucleon in the pseudorapidity region −0.1 < ν lab < 5.5. These distributions are compared with those for 16 OW interactions in the same pseudorapidity region and with earlier measurements performed with 16 O and 32 S projectiles in the region −0.1 < ν lab < 2.9. These comparisons provide both a better understanding of the dynamics involved and improved estimates of stopping power and energy density.

An apparatus consisting of a superconducting solenoid magnet, cylindrical drift-chambers, and two arrays of lead-glass Čerenkov counters has been used at the CERN ISR to study the production of e + e − pairs of invariant mass above 6.5 GeV/ c 2 . Cross sections for the continuum and the ϒ family of resonances are presented, as well as the mean transverse momentum 〈 p T 〉 of the electron-positron pairs in the continuum and resonance region.
