Neutron-Proton Total Cross-Sections from 40-GeV/c to 280-GeV/c

Inspire Record 89896 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21237

We present results of measurements of the n−p total cross section between 30 and 280 GeV/c. The measurements were carried out with a neutron beam by using the standard transmission technique and a liquid-hydrogen target. A total-absorption calorimeter was used to determine the neutron energy. Our measurements, which have an accuracy of ∼1%, indicate a smooth rise of approximately 1.5 mb between 50 and 280 GeV/c. The combined n−p and p−p data above 20 GeV/c are well fitted by the expression σ=38.4+0.85|ln(s95)|1.47 mb.

We present measurements on the inclusive structure function for π 0 photoproduction for the incident photon energy range of 2.8–4.8 GeV. Comparisons are made with electroproduction data and it is found that the scaling behaviour already observed for finite q 2 continues to be valid at q 2 = 0.

The s and t dependence of φ (1019) photoproduction has been investigated in the incident photon energy range 2.8 to to 4.8 GeV. Differential cross-sections and density matrix elements are presented for a t range extending from t min out to −1.3 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The results are discussed in terms discussed in terms of an effective Regge trajectory in the t -channel.

Measurements of the photoproduction processes γρ→ρ+n and γρ→ρ-Δ++ (1236) are reported in the energy range 2.8 to 4.8 GeV. The data show shrinkage of the differential cross section in this energy region for the process γρ→ρ-Δ++ (1236); no shrinkage is observed for the ρ+n process. The energy dependences of the ρ+n and ρ-Δ++ (1236) total cross sections are much steeper than current model prediction. The ρ spin density matrices for each process are also presented.

Inspire Record 141585 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15607

The elastic photoproduction of four pions has been studied at incident photon energies between 2.8 and 4.8 GeV. Production cross-sections are presented and an analysis of the angular decay correlations is also described, indicating a large 1− contribution in both final states, π+ π− π+ π− and π+ π− π0 π0. A quantitative understanding of these and other available 4π photoproduction data in terms of the ρ′(∼1.2GeV) and the ρ′(∼1.6) is presented.

Inspire Record 142743 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20754

A peak in the pK−π+ and p¯K+π− invariant-mass spectra at 2.285±0.006 GeV/c2 is observed, which is associated with the lowest-lying charmed baryon (Λc). A cross section times branching ratio of 0.037±0.012 nb at Ec.m.=5.2 GeV is measured with a substantial fraction of the events produced with an equal recoiling mass. New measurements of inclusive p and Λ cross sections are also presented, allowing an estimate of the branching ratio B(Λc→pK−π+)=0.022±0.010.

We present a measurement of the cross section for hadron production by e+e− annihilation in the vicinity of the previously observed resonance near 3.77 GeV. The data are used to determine the parameters of the ψ(3770) resonance. The values found are: mass, 3764±5 MeV/c2, total width, 23.5±5 MeV, and partial width to electron pairs, 276±50 eV.

Measurement of High-energy Direct Photons in $\psi$ Decays

The inclusive γ and π0 momentum distributions at the ψ have been measured. Using these data and estimates of η production, it is found that (4.1 ± 0.8)% of ψ decays contain a direct photon with energy greater than 60% of the beam energy. The expected momentum distribution for direct photons calculated to lowest order in quantum chromodynamics is qualitatively different from that observed in the data.

Measurements of the Properties of d Meson Decays

Phys.Rev.D 24 (1981) 78, 1981.
Inspire Record 156644 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24006

We present a study of the decay properties of charmed D mesons produced near the peak of the ψ′′(3770) resonance in e+e− annihilation. Branching fractions for nine Cabibbo-favored and three Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes are presented along with upper limits on one additional Cabibbo-favored and four additional Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes. A study of Kππ-decay-mode Dalitz plots reveals a large quasi-two-body pseudoscalar-vector component for the D0 decays and an apparent nonuniform population on the Dalitz plot for the D+ decay into K−π+π+. Using tagged events, we measure the charged-particle multiplicity and strange-particle content of D decays. A measurement of the D+ and D0 semileptonic decay fractions indicates that the D+ has a significantly longer lifetime than the D0.

Direct Photon Production at the $\psi$

Scharre, D.L. ; Alam, M.S. ; Boyarski, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 23 (1981) 43, 1981.
Inspire Record 153865 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24079

We present results of a detailed analysis of inclusive direct photon production at the ψ(3095). The direct-photon momentum distribution for x>0.4 is presented and compared with the leading-order quantum-chromodynamic prediction. The total production rate is found to be consistent with theoretical expectations, but the observed momentum distribution is considerably softer. Results of an analysis of some inclusive properties of the hadronic system recoiling against the direct photon are presented. The mean charged-particle and Ks multiplicities are presented as functions of the invariant mass of the hadronic system. These data agree well with the corresponding mean multiplicities measured in e+e− annihilations at center-of-mass energies comparable to the invariant mass of the hadronic system.
