We use low mass dimuons (0.35 < M μμ ⩽ 2 GeV/ c 2 ) to analyse the production at high transverse momentum ( P T ⩾ 2 GeV/ c ) of the resonances ϱ, ω, π. We have studied the variation of the cross section with the type of incident particle (π, K, p) at 150, 200, 280 GeV/ c and the nuclear effects by comparison of platinum and hydrogen targets. There is no significant difference between the slopes of the transverse momentum distributions with those observed at lower P T (0 < P T < 2 GeV/ c ), meanwhile x F -distributions show a leading effect in the production of gf by kaons at these relatively high transverse momenta.

Comparison of p$ \Bar{$p$}$ and p p Elastic Scattering at $S^{(1/2)}=52$.8-{GeV}

Proton-antiproton and proton-proton elastic scattering have been measured in the four-momentum transfer range 0.001⩽| t |⩽0.06 GeV 2 for center-of-mass energy 52.8 GeV at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR). Using the known pp total cross section, a simultaneous fit to the pp̄ and pp differential cross sections yields the pp̄ total cross section; in addition, we obtain the ratio of the real-to-imaginary part of the forward nuclear-scattering amplitude and the nuclear-slope parameter for both pp̄ and pp. Our results show conclusively that the pp̄ total cross section is rising at ISR energies and lend support to conventional theories in which the difference between the pp̄ and pp total cross section vanishes at very high energy.

Neutrino and anti-neutrinos Charged Current Inclusive Scattering in Iron in the Energy Range 20-GeV < Neutrino Energy < 300-GeV

Z.Phys.C 17 (1983) 283, 1983.
Inspire Record 182549 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.2213

Inclusive charged-current interactions of high-energy neutrinos and antineutrinos have been studied with high statistics in a counter experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The energy dependence of the total cross-sections, the longitudinal structure function, and the nucleon structure functionsF2,xF3, and\(\bar q^{\bar v} \) are determined from these data. The analysis of theQ2-dependence of the structure functions is used to test quantum chromodynamics, to determine the scale parameter Λ and the gluon distribution in the nucleon.

Charm $D$ Meson Production in 360-{GeV} $\pi^- p$ Interactions: Evidence for Leading Quarks

The LEBC-EHS collaboration Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W.M. ; Bagnaia, P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 123 (1983) 98-102, 1983.
Inspire Record 182456 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30715

Charm D-meson production in 360 GeV π − p interactions has been studied using the high-resolution hydrogen bubble chamber LEBC and the European Hybrid Spectrometer. The data show evidence for leading quark effects both in the number of D-meson types and in the Feynman x distributions. The production cross section is of the form d 2 δ d x d p T 2 ∞(1-x) n exp (-ap T 2 ) with n = 2.8±0.8 and a = 1.1±0.3 (GeV/ c ) −2 . The x distribution is, however, compatible with the presence of both central ( n = 6) and leading (n = 1) D / D production. The fraction of D-messons in the leading component is estimated to be ≈30%. The rapidity gap between members of reconstructed charm pairs is small compared to the available rapidity range. The inclusive cross section for single D-messons in the forward direction is: δ(D/ D )=(40 8 +15 )μ b ( for x>0) .

Charm $D$ Meson Production in 360-{GeV}/$c p p$ Interactions: Comparison With $\pi^- p$ at the Same Energy

Inspire Record 182457 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30746

Charm D-meson production in 360 GeV pp interactions has been studied using the high-resolution hydrogen bubble chamber LEBC and the European Hybrid Spectrometer. D-mesons are produced with a differential cross section of the form d 2 σ d x d p T 2 δ(1-x) n exp (-ap T 2 ) , with n =1.8± 0.8 and a =1.1±0.03 GeV/ c −2 for the Feynman x and Transverse momentum p T behaviour. The inclusive partle prticle crossssection for D and D̄;measured to be: σ(D/ D ̄ ) = (56 −12 25 μ b (for all x ). The Λ c D ̄ cross section can be estimated to be ≈20 μ b. No strong correlation is observed between DD̄ pairs. The results are compared with results from a study of D-meaon production in 360 GeV/ c π − p interactions also using LEBC-EHS.

Investigation of Two Photon Final States in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=34$.2-{GeV}

The CELLO collaboration Behrend, H.J. ; Chen, C. ; Fenner, H. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 123 (1983) 127-132, 1983.
Inspire Record 182585 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30780

Two photon final states in e + e − annihilation have been analyzed at CM energies around 34 GeV. Good agreement with QED is observed. Lower limits for the QED cutoff parameters of Λ + > 59 GeV and Λ - > 44 GeV are determined. A search for two photons with missing energy yields an upper limit for the production of neutral particles which decay into a photon and a non-interacting particle. Constraints on the mass and the coupling strength of supersymmetric photinos are discussed.

Determination of the Neutral to Charged Current Cross-section Ratio for Neutrino Interactions on Protons

The BEBC TST Neutrino collaboration Armenise, N. ; Calicchio, M. ; Erriquez, O. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 122 (1983) 448-454, 1983.
Inspire Record 182504 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30812

About 2000 neutral induced interactions observed inside the hydrogen filled TST in BEBC have been analysed. The data were obtained from an exposure to the v μ wide band beam at the CERN SPS. A separation of these events into charged current, neutral current and neutral hadron induced interactions have been achieved using a multidimensional kinematic analysis. The neutral to charged current cross section ratio for v μ interactions on free protons has been determined avoiding the drastic cuts on the data inherent in previous experiments. The result R P v = 0.47 ± 0.04 is compatible with those measurements and the prediction of the standard SU (2) × U (1) model for sin 2 θ W = 0.18 ± 0.04.

With a PETRA energy scan in ≤30-MeV steps, the continuum production of open top quark up to 38.54 GeV is excluded. Over regions of energy scan from 29.90 to 38.63 GeV limits are set on the product of hadronic branching ratio and electronic width BhΓee for toponium to be less than 2.0 keV at the 95% confidence level. By a search for flavor-changing neutral currents in b decay, models without a top quark are excluded.

Inclusive $\phi$ Meson Production in $K^-$, $\bar{p}$ and $p$ Be Interactions at 100-{GeV}/$c$

Z.Phys.C 18 (1983) 1, 1983.
Inspire Record 183362 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.16360

Inclusive ϕ-meson production has been measured for 100 GeV/cK−,\(\bar p\) andp incident on a Be target. Differential cross sectionsdσ/dxF anddσ/dp⊥2 are presented in the interval 0.075<xF<0.225 and 0<p⊥<1 GeV/c respectively. The shape of thedσ/dxF distributions agrees with predictions from a quark fusion model. Comparison with cross sections measured on a hydrogen target in the samexF andp⊥ range suggest a linearA-dependence fromA=1 toA=9.
