A study of the reactions p Xe → K + K + X , p Xe → K + H(H → Σ − p)X and p Xe → K + K + H(H → Σ − p)X was performed using the 700-litre xenon bubble chamber DIANA, exposed to the 1 GeV/ c antiproton beam of ITEP (Moscow). From a sample of 7.8 · 10 5 antiproton annihilations at low energy in xenon nuclei 4 events were observed for the reaction p Xe | → K + K + X at rest ( P p ≤ 400 MeV /c ) and 8 for the same reaction in flight ( 400 ≤ P p ≤ 900 MeV /c ). The corresponding probabilities turned out to be 3.1 · 10 −5 and 3.4 · 10 −5 , respectively. No H -event was found in the two semi-inclusive reactions p Xe → K + HX and p Xe → K + K + HX . This lead to the upper limits 6 · 10 −6 and 8 · 10 −6 (90% C.L.), respectively. The corresponding upper limit for the fully inclusive reaction p Xe → HX turned out to be 1.2 · 10 −5 (90% C.L.), which is about one order of magnitude lower than the actual value reported in the literature.

CROSS SECTION WAS ESTIMATED ASSUMING IT'S INDEPENDENCE OF THE ANTIPROTON M OMENTUM.
The double strangeness production has been observed in two final states of annihilation of antiprotons at momentum less than 0.9 GeV/ c on Xe nuclei: K + K + X (8 events) and K + K 0 ΛX (6 events). The probabilities of the reaction p Xe → K + K + X vary from 2 · 10 −5 (at rest) up to 7 · 10 −5 (in flight). The reaction p Xe → K + K 0 ΛX is observed only in flight with probability 3 · 10 −4 . The properties of the observed reactions are similar to those resulting from the cascade process with production of Ξ hyperon: p N → K ∗ −K ∗ , K ∗ → Kπ, −K ∗ N → ΞK, ΞN → ΛΛ . The new upper limit on the production probability of the stable H ( S = −2) dibaryon in the reaction Xe → K + K + H(H → Σ − p)X was obtained to be < 2 · 10 − (90% C . L .).

The rr- + p- n + rr0 charge-exchange scattering and the rr- + p- n + 1J ( 1J- 2y) reaction were investigated in 1.55-4.5 BeVIc region in a 17-liter propane-xenon bubble chamber. The total cross sections of both reactions were measured in this region. The angular distributions of the rr0 mesons in the charge-exchange reaction were obtained. The backward exchange-scattering cross sections du( rr- + p- n + rr 0 )ldQ were estimated.

An angular analysis of the $B^{0}\rightarrow K^{*0}(\rightarrow K^{+}\pi^{-})\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay is presented. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $3.0\,{\mbox{fb}^{-1}}$ of $pp$ collision data collected at the LHCb experiment. The complete angular information from the decay is used to determine $C\!P$-averaged observables and $C\!P$ asymmetries, taking account of possible contamination from decays with the $K^{+}\pi^{-}$ system in an S-wave configuration. The angular observables and their correlations are reported in bins of $q^2$, the invariant mass squared of the dimuon system. The observables are determined both from an unbinned maximum likelihood fit and by using the principal moments of the angular distribution. In addition, by fitting for $q^2$-dependent decay amplitudes in the region $1.1<q^{2}<6.0\mathrm{\,Ge\kern -0.1em V}^{2}/c^{4}$, the zero-crossing points of several angular observables are computed. A global fit is performed to the complete set of $C\!P$-averaged observables obtained from the maximum likelihood fit. This fit indicates differences with predictions based on the Standard Model at the level of 3.4 standard deviations. These differences could be explained by contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model, or by an unexpectedly large hadronic effect that is not accounted for in the Standard Model predictions.

We report on a measurement of the ratio of the differential cross sections for W and Z boson production as a function of transverse momentum in proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV. This measurement uses data recorded by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron in 1994-1995. It represents the first investigation of a proposal that ratios between W and Z observables can be calculated reliably using perturbative QCD, even when the individual observables are not. Using the ratio of differential cross sections reduces both experimental and theoretical uncertainties, and can therefore provide smaller overall uncertainties in the measured mass and width of the W boson than current methods used at hadron colliders.

The measured ratios of W+-/Z0 cross sections, corrected for the branching ratios BR(W-->e-nue)=0.1073+-0.0025 and BR(Z0-->E+E-)=0.033632+-0.000059 (PDG 2000). The error given is the total error, but note that the 4.3pct error in the luminosity cancels completely in the ratio.
