We measure forward cross sections for production of D+, D0, Ds, D*+, and Λc in collisions of π±, K±, and p on a nuclear target. Production induced by different beam particles is found to be the same within statistics. Strange and baryonic final states are seen to contribute appreciably to the total charm cross section, which our measurements indicate is larger than but consistent with QCD predictions. The energy dependence mapped out by these and previous measurements is consistent with theory. Leading-particle asymmetry measurements for K and p-induced charm production are also presented.

A study of electron muon pair production in 450-GeV/c p Be collisions.

We report on the production ofe± μ∓ pairs in 450 GeV/c pBe collisions at the CERN SPS. Theeμ signal, which has average missing energy of 21 GeV, is shown to be consistent with expectations from charm decay, and implies a σ ×B for\(c\bar c\) production in p-nucleon collisions of 0.63 ± 0.35μb. Alternatively, using an estimate of charm production from other experiments, the data imply a 95% confidence level upper limit of 1.16μb on any new physics process which producese±μ∓.

Linear A-dependence is assumed. For the first reaction the cross section times branching ratios. For the second reaction the statistical and systematic errors have been combined in quadrature.

Results from E735 at the tevatron proton - anti-proton collider with s**(1/2) = 1.8-TeV

The E735 collaboration Lindsey, Clark S. ; Alexopoulos, T. ; Allen, C. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.A 544 (1992) 343-356, 1992.
Inspire Record 322633 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.43062

Experiment E735 searched for evidence of the transition to quark-gluon plasma in p p collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV. Using data from a high statistics run in 1988–1989, results are presented on multiplicity distributions, hyperon and phi production, and Bose-Einstein correlations. Some data were also taken at lower collision energies and results will be compared to previous experiments.

An Experimental Study of the a-Dependence of $J/\psi$ Photoproduction

The Fermilab Tagged Photon Spectrometer collaboration Sokoloff, M.D. ; dos Anjos, J.C.C. ; Appel, J.A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 57 (1986) 3003, 1986.
Inspire Record 235061 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20205

We have studied the photoproduction of Jψ mesons on H, Be, Fe, and Pb targets using real photons at a mean energy of 120 GeV. The pT2 spectra were used to separate the coherent diffractive signals from the incoherent signals. Parametrizing the per-nucleus cross sections in terms of power-law dependences, Aα, we find that αcoh=1.40±0.06±0.04 for the coherent diffractive signals and αincoh=0.94±0.02±0.03 for the incoherent signals.
