First results from the magnetic detector PLUTO at the new e + e − storage ring PETRA are shown. The ratio R of the cross section for hadron production to that for μ-pair production has been measured to be R = 5.0 ± 0.5 at 13 GeV and 4.3 ±0.5 at 17 GeV. Both values have an additional systematic error of 20%. The events show a typical 2-jet structure. The mean transverse momentum approaches a constant value with increasing energy implying a shrinkage of the jet opening angle.
TAU HEAVY LEPTON PAIR CONTRIBUTIONS HAVE BEEN SUBTRACTED. R AT 13 AND 17 GEV, TOGETHER WITH SOME SELECTED LOWER ENERGY MEASUREMENTS FROM PLUTO AT DORIS.
Data from earlier preprint DESY-79-06. NUMERICAL VALUES MEASURED OFF GRAPH IN PREPRINT.
The electronic width Γee and the muonic branching ratioBμμ=Γμμ/Γtot of the Γ(9.46) have been measured as Γee=(1.33±0.14) andBμμ=(2.2±2.0)%. From these values a lower limit of Γtot<23keV for the total width of the Γ(9.46) is obtained.
THE DATA POINTS INCLUDE 10 PCT OF THE TAU HEAVY LEPTON PAIR EVENTS.

Results on e + e − annihilation into hadrons at c.m. energies between 22 and 31.6 GeV are presented. The data were accumulated with the PLUTO detector at PETRA. The events are dominantly of the two-jet type. The value of the relative hadronic cross section R =3.88 ± 0.22 along with the details of the sphericity and thrust distribution rule out an open (tt̄) channel (Q t = 2 3 ) below 30 GeV. The inclusive muon results support the above conclusion.
CROSS SECTIONS CORRECTED FOR BEAM-GAS SCATTERING BACKGROUND, INITIAL STATE RADIATION, TAU HEAVY LEPTON CONTRIBUTION AND TWO-PHOTON EVENTS.
We present the first data on photon-photon annihilation into hadrons for CM energies > 1 GeV obtained with the detector PLUTO at the e + e − storage ring PETRA. Cross sections are extracted using an inelastic eγ scattering formalism. The results are compared to expectations from Regge-like models.
DEPENDENCE OF CROSS SECTION FOR ELECTRON-PHOTON SCATTERING (ANALOGOUS TO HAND'S FORMULA) ON VISIBLE HADRONIC ENERGY, CALCULATED BY TAKING PION MASSES FOR ALL CHARGED PARTICLES.
We present measurements of two-particle angular correlations in hadron jets produced in e + e − annihilation between 7.7 and 31.6 GeV c.m. energy. The data are compared to predictions of high order perturbative QCD calculations.

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.
AVERAGE VALUE OF R OVER THE SCAN REGION.
THESE MEASUREMENTS COMBINED WITH PREVIOUS DATA AT 30.0 AND 31.6 GEV REPORTED IN CH. BERGER ET AL., PL 86B, 413 (1979).
αα elastic scattering was measured at 4.32 GeV/ c and 5.07 GeV/ c incident momenta. The four-momentum transfer range, extending from −0.05 to −0.77 (GeV/ c ) 2 , covers the first and second minimum regions. The results are compared with calculations based on Glauber theory.

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.).
