The cross section for the reaction e + e - →π + π - π + π - has been measured at the e + e - storage ring Adone, in the to tal c.m. energy range 1.42–2.20 GeV. The peak and the following descent of the ϱ′(1600) resonance is observed. Using also lower energy data, and assuming that only one resonant amplitude contributes to the observed cross section, the parameters of the ϱ′(1600) are deduced.

Comparison of e+ e- Annihilation with QCD and Determination of the Strong Coupling Constant

Inspire Record 153511 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.5489

We have analyzed 1113 events of the reaction e + e − → hadrons at CM energies of 12 and 30 GeV in order to make a detailed comparison with QCD. Perturbative effects can be well separated from effects depending on the quark and gluon fragmentation parameters to yield a reliable measurement of the coupling constant α S . At 30 GeV, the result is α S = 0.17 ± 0.02 (statistical) ± 0.03 (systematic). QCD model predictions, using the fragmentation parameters determined along with α S , agree with both gross properties of the final states and with detailed features of the three-jet states.

Measurement of the Reaction $e^+ e^- \to \gamma \gamma$ at {CMS} Energies From 9.4-{GeV} to 31.6-{GeV}

Inspire Record 153120 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27174

The differential cross section for the reaction e + e − → γγ has been measured in the CMS energy range between 9.4 and 31.6 GeV. The results are found to be in agreement with the predictions of quantum electrodynamics up to momentum transfers- q 2 of 900 GeV 2 . The data set lower limits of about 40 GeV on QED cut-off parameters. We have searched for the decay υ (9.46) → γγ and obtain an upper limit Γ ( υ → γγ )/ Γ ( υ → all) < 1.4% (95% c.l.).

Observation of a Fourth Upsilon State in e+ e- Annihilations

The CLEO collaboration Andrews, D. ; Berkelman, Karl ; Cabenda, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 45 (1980) 219, 1980.
Inspire Record 153182 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20674

A fourth state in the upsilon energy region has been seen in e+e− collisions at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. A resonance is observed with a mass 1112±5 MeV above the lowest upsilon state. The 9.6-MeV rms width is greater than the 4.6-MeV energy resolution of the e+e− beams. The observed characteristics of the new state make it a likely candidate for the 4S3 state of the bb¯ system, lying above the threshold for the production of B mesons.

We have measured the reactions e + e − → e + e − → μ + μ − and e + e − → γγ at c.m. energies between 12 and 31.6 GeV. Excellent agreement with the predictions of QED has been found, resulting in cut off parameters Λ + > 112 GeV and Λ − > 139 GeV for the first process and Λ + > 34 GeV and Λ − > 42 GeV (95% c.1.) for the last one. A limit on the Weinberg angle of sin 2 θ W < 0.55 (95% c.1.) has been obtained.

Observation of Three Upsilon States

Inspire Record 152393 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20733

Three narrow resonances have been observed in e+e− annihilation into hadrons at total energies between 9.4 and 10.4 GeV. Measurements of mass spacing and ratios of lepton pair widths support the interpretation of these "ϒ" states as the lowest triplet-S levels of the bb¯ quark-antiquark system.

Search for Narrow Resonances in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at {PETRA}

Inspire Record 152291 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27236

We have performed a search for narrow resonances in the center of mass energy range from 29.90 to 31.46 GeV using the e + e − storage ring PETRA at DESY. We present the total cross section for hadron production and an upper limit for resonance production, indicating that no bound state of charge- 2 3 quarks exists in this energy range.

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.
