First Measurement of the T-odd Correlation between the Z0 Spin and the Three-jet Plane Orientation in Polarized Z0 Decays to Three Jets

The SLD collaboration Abe, K. ; Abt, I. ; Ahn, C.J. ; et al.

We present the first measurement of the correlation between the $Z^0$ spin and the three-jet plane orientation in polarized $Z^0$ decays into three jets in the SLD experiment at SLAC utilizing a longitudinally polarized electron beam. The CP-even and T-odd triple product $\vec{S_Z}\cdot(\vec{k_1}\times \vec{k_2})$ formed from the two fastest jet momenta, $\vec{k_1}$ and $\vec{k_2}$, and the $Z^0$ polarization vector $\vec{S_Z}$, is sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model. We measure the expectation value of this quantity to be consistent with zero and set 95\% C.L. limits of $-0.022 < \beta < 0.039$ on the correlation between the $Z^0$-spin and the three-jet plane orientation.

Asymmetry extracted from formula: (1/SIG(Q=3JET))*D(SIG)/D(COS(OMEGA)) = 9/16*[(1-1/3*(COS(OMEGA))**2) + ASYM*Az*(1-2*Pmis(ABS(COS(OMEGA))))*COS(OMEGA)], where OMEGA is polar angle of [k1,k2] vector (jet-plane normal), Pmis is the p robability of misassignment of of jet-plane normal, Az is beam polarization. Jets were reconstructed using the 'Durham' jet algorithm with a jet-resol ution parameter Yc = 0.005.


Observation of Correlations Between Forward Protons and 90-degree Trigger Protons at S**1/2 = 62-{GeV}

The R608 collaboration Smith, A.M. ; Meritet, L. ; Reyrolle, M. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 184 (1987) 293-298, 1987.
Inspire Record 234498 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30213

We study the production of π + 's and protons at 90° with p t>1.15 GeV and their correlations with forward protons. Fewer forward protons are observed for a 90° proton trigger than for a π + trigger. This is in qualitative agreement with the idea of an effective diquark scattering mechanism. Additionally, we observe that a K + produced at 90° is correlated with an enhanced forward production of λ O .
