The charged particle multiplicities of the quark and gluon jets in the three-fold symmetric e + e − → q q g events at √ s = 29 GeV have been studied using the high resolution spectrometer at PEP. A value of 〈 n 〉 g = 6.7 −2.1 +1.1 ±1.0 for gluon jet s with an energy of 9.7 −2.0 +1.5 GeV is measured. The ratio, 〈 n 〉 g /〈 n 〉 q , is 1.29 −0.41 +0.21 ±0.20, which i s significantly lower than the value of 9 4 naively expected from the ration of the gluon-to-quark color charges.
Mean jet charged particle interpretations for gluon and quark jets as described above.
Inclusive production of charged particles has been studied in e + e − annihilation at s s=29 GeV using the high resolution spectrometer at PEP. Differential cross sections are presented in the range of scaled energy 0.1< z <1.0. The data for z <0.5 show the (1− z ) 2 behavior predicted by the dimensional counting rules. Comparisons are made with predictions of the Lund string model and the Webber cluster model.

Data from the High Resolution Spectrometer at the SLAC storage ring PEP have been used to study the inclusive production of baryons and mesons. Time-of-flight measurements are used to identify the charged hadrons. Neutral hadrons are identified from effective-mass peaks associated with their decay into two charged particles. Cross sections and other inclusive production characteristics are presented for π±, K±, and K0 (K¯0) mesons, and for the baryons (antibaryons) p (p¯) and Λ (Λ¯). The ratio of the inclusive cross section to the point cross section for the K0 and K¯0 mesons is R(K0,K¯0)=6.15±0.13±0.25, and for Λ and Λ¯, R(Λ,Λ¯)=0.846±0.036±0.085. The neutral-hadron differential cross sections are compared with the predictions of the Lund string model.

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 production of neutral K ∗ (890) and ρ 0 mesons was studied in e + e − annihilation at s =29 GeV using the High Resolution Spectrometer at PEP. Differential cross sections are presented as a function of the scaled energy variable z and compared to π 0 and K 0 production. The measured multiplicities are 0.84±0.08 ϱ 0 mesons and 0.57±0.09 K ∗0 (890) mesons per event for a meson momentum greater than 725 MeV/ c . The ratios of vector meson to pseudoscalar meson production for (u,d), s and c quark are compared to predictions of the Lund model.

Data from the high-resolution spectrometer at PEP have been used to study the inclusive production of φ mesons and F± mesons decaying into φπ±. Fragmentation functions and cross sections are presented and compared to existing data. The total φ cross section at 29 GeV is 40±6 pb. The observed F signal in the region z>0.4, given the assumption that R(F)[R(F)+R(D)]=0.15, corresponds to an F→φπ branching ratio of (3.3±1.1)%. The measured F mass is 1963±3±3 MeV/c2.
