Tests of Factorization from Single and Double Pion Production in 100-GeV/c anti-p p and p p Collisions.

Rushbrooke, John G. ; Ward, D.R. ; Ansorge, R.E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 117-120, 1977.
Inspire Record 123282 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20980

Single- and double-pion inclusive spectra are presented for 100-GeV/c p¯p interactions and compared with related pp data. Double-fragmentation distributions are shown to be understood within a Mueller-Regge framework as a product of single-fragmentation distributions. Consideration of pp and p¯p−pp distributions shows factorization to hold in Pomeron and in Reggeon exchanges independently.

Inclusive V0 Production in anti-p p Interactions at 12-GeV/c

The Brussels-CERN-London-Mons-Orsay collaboration Bertrand, D. ; Johnson, D. ; Lemonne, J. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 128 (1977) 365, 1977.
Inspire Record 120622 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.36137

Results are presented on the inclusive reactions p p → K 0 X , p p → Λ X and p p → Λ X at an incident antiproton momentum of 12 GeV/ c in BEBC. The cross sections are studied as functions of the Feynman scaling variable x , the rapidity, the transverse momentum of the V 0 and the missing mass squared. The dependence of the Λ and Λ polarization on x are also studied. Comparisons with proton-proton data at 12 GeV/ c are also made. Finally, events with two detected V 0 are analyzed in order to study correlations arising from the production of two strange neutral particles.

Inclusive Production Cross-Sections of Resonances in 32-GeV/c K+ p Interactions

The French-Soviet & CERN-Soviet collaborations Granet, P. ; Mosca, L. ; Saudraix, J. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 140 (1978) 389, 1978.
Inspire Record 121746 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34983

The inclusive production of resonances is systematically studied in K + p interactions at 32 GeV/ c . Total production cross sections are given for three baryon resonances, five vector and three 2 + tensor mesons. We also compare the central and fragmentation components of the total production cross sections with quark model predictions.

Study of the high mass dimuon continuum in 400-GeV proton - nucleus collisions

Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 435, 1978.
Inspire Record 122485 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20947

The mass spectrum of muon pairs in the range 5 to 15 GeV is studied in the inclusive reaction p+nucleus→μ++μ−+anything. The ϒ and continuum distribution are presented as is the A dependence of the continuum. Comparison with a parton-annihilation model yields a sea-quark distribution.

Meson Resonance Production in p p Interactions at 53-GeV (Center-of-Mass) Energy

Boehm, A. ; VanDalen, Gordon J. ; Kernan, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 41 (1978) 1761-1764, 1978.
Inspire Record 136909 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3338

At the CERN intersecting storage ring the inclusive differential cross section [dσdσ]y=1 has been measured for f0, g0, K*0(1420), and K¯*0(1420) production: We obtain 0.58±0.05 mb, 0.09±0.05 mb, 38±15 μb, and 26±13 μb, respectively. The corresponding total inclusive cross sections are estimated to be 2.62±0.26 mb, 0.40±0.22 mb, 154±60 μb, and 107±52 μb, respectively. The magnitude of the K* cross section implies a cross section of approximately 5 μb for production of a charmed DD¯ pair.

We present proton-nucleus dimuon-production cross sections for masses between 4 and 15 GeV, center-of-mass rapidities between -0.23 and 0.6 and incident energies of 200, 300, and 400 GeV. The data confirm scaling to the 20% level. The dependence of continuum 〈pT〉 on beam energy is also presented.

Evidence for the Upsilon'' and a Search for New Narrow Resonances

The production of the ϒ family in proton-nucleus collisions is clarified by a sixfold increase in statistics. Constraining ϒ,ϒ′ masses to those observed at DORIS we find the statistical significance of the ϒ′′ to be 11 standard deviations. The dependence of ϒ production on pt, y, and s is presented. Limits for other resonance production in the mass range 4-18 GeV are determined.

Inclusive Charged Particle Production in Neutron - Nucleus Collisions

Chaney, D. ; Ferbel, T. ; Slattery, P. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 19 (1979) 3210, 1979.
Inspire Record 7658 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.47089

We have measured charged-particle production in neutron-nucleus collisions at high energy. Data on positive and negative particles produced in nuclei [ranging in atomic number (A) from beryllium to lead] are presented for essentially the full forward hemisphere of the center-of-mass system. A rough pion-proton separation is achieved for the positive spectra. Fits of the form Aα to the cross sections are presented as functions of transverse momentum, longitudinal momentum, rapidity, and pseudorapidity. It is found that α changes from ∼0.85 to ∼0.60 for laboratory rapidities ranging from 4 to 8. Trends in the data differ markedly when examined in terms of pseudorapidity rather than rapidity. Qualitatively, the major features of our data can be understood in terms of current particle-production models.
