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.

Measurement of the SU(3) Symmetry Violation in the Quark Jet

Phys.Lett.B 93 (1980) 210-212, 1980.
Inspire Record 152994 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.42575

We have used the ratio between the production rates of $K^0$'s and $π^−$'s in antineutrino-nucleon interactions in the Fermilab 15 ft bubble chamber to measure the size of the SU (3) symmetry violation in the production of quark-antiquark pairs to be 0.27 ± 0.04. This value is significantly larger than the value obtained from a recent ep experiment. There is no apparent dependence of the $K^0$/$π^−$ ratio with $W^2 , Q ^2 , x_b$ or $p_T^2$ .

Photoproduction of $K^+ K^-$ Pairs on Hydrogen at Photon Energies of 20-{GeV} to 36-{GeV}

Nucl.Phys.B 172 (1980) 1-12, 1980.
Inspire Record 153022 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34516

The reaction γ p→K + K − p has been investigated with photons in the energy range of 20< E γ <36 GeV and with K + K − pairs in the mass range of M K + K − <2.0 GeV. The production of the φ(1019) contributes with a cross section σ ( γ p → φ p) × BR( φ →K + K − ) = 240±6 nb with an additional systematic error of ±20 nb. In the higher mass range of 1.05< M K + K − <2.0 GeV the production of K + K − pairs yields a cross section σ ( γ p→K + K − p) = 160±8 nb with an additional systematic error of +40 −30 nb.

Search for the Production of a New Quark Flavor at the Highest {PETRA} Energies

Barber, D.P. ; Becker, U. ; Benda, H. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 44 (1980) 1722, 1980.
Inspire Record 152616 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20702

This paper reports the results of a study of hadron production in e+e− collisions at c.m. system energies of 33, 35, and 35.8 GeV. Production of a new quark flavor has been sought. The measured values of the total cross section, the thrust distributions, and the study of inclusive muon production show no evidence for the production of a new charge-23e quark near threshold. In addition, during an energy scan in the region 29.9<~s<~31.6 GeV, no hadron resonance indicating the existence of a bound state composed of charge-23e quarks has been found.

Inspire Record 153009 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24076

We report final results of a series of measurements of continuum dimuon production in proton-nucleus collisions at Fermilab. New results with 6 times more statistics are included. A full description of the apparatus and methods used in the analysis of this series of measurements is given. The sea quark distribution of the nucleon is determined within the context of Drell-Yan and quantum-chromodynamic description of dilepton production in hadron collisions.

Operation and Performance of a System for $\pi p$ and $\pi D$ Backward Scattering

Stanovnik, A. ; Kernel, G. ; Tanner, N.W. ; et al.
Nucl.Instrum.Meth. 177 (1980) 369, 1980.
Inspire Record 152948 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.41451

A simple, large-solid-angle apparatus, specially suited for the measurement of backward elastic scattering of medium-energy pions on protons and deuterons, is described. The method of analysis which reduces background and determines elastic events from a data sample of 185 MeV negative pions incident on a D 2 O target is discussed. Results for 141 MeV π + p and 185 MeV π − p backward cross-sections are also presented and compared with cross-sections calculated from known phase shifts.

Diffraction Dissociation, Resonances and Deck Mechanism in the $K \omega$ Systems of the Reactions $K^+^- p \to$ ($K^+^- \omega$) $p$

The Aachen-Berlin-CERN-London-Vienna & Birmingham-Brussels-CERN-Mons-Serpukhov collaborations Otter, G. ; Rudolph, G. ; Wieczorek, H. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 181 (1981) 1-21, 1981.
Inspire Record 153195 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34348

A study is presented of the reactions K + p→(K + ω )p at 8.25 and 16 GeV/ c and K − p→(K − ω )p at 10 and 16 GeV/ c and comparison is made with K + results at 10 GeV/ c and K − at 7.3 GeV/ c . The (K + ω) and (K − ω) mass spectra both present a strong enhancement very near threshold, while a second peak at ∼1.7 GeV is evident only with incident K − at the lower energies. The threshold peak has very weak energy dependence and is mostly due to the 1 + S state which is produced conserving s -channel helicity. It is suggested that this is another decay mode of the resonance Q 1 (1290) known to decay mainly into Kϱ. The ratio of the Q 1 coupling constants to the Kω and Kϱ decay channels, R ω = g K ω 2 / g K ϱ 2 is determined to be 0.21±0.04. The enhancement at 1.7 GeV is predominantly, but not exclusively, due to the 2 − state. While the K + and K − induced reactions give basically similar results, small differences are observed that can be qualitatively explained in the framework of the Deck model.

General Features of the Anti-p $p$ Interaction at 12-{GeV}/c

Nucl.Phys.B 173 (1980) 77-92, 1980.
Inspire Record 8886 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34472

Simple inclusive cross sections for p p interactions at 12 GeV/ c are given. The data cover prong cross sections, V 0 production and resonances. Separation has been made into annihilation and non-annihilation modes. Some implications of the data are discussed. It is pointed out that the ratios of cross sections for ϱ 0 π − production are independent of incident antiproton momentum in p p annihilation processes, and that data at the highest available pp energies (ISR) tend to the same value.

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.
