Inspire Record 99862 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24850

We report on a search for Ξ* production in the mass range 1.5-2.0 GeV / c2 in K−n interactions at 2.87 GeV / c. Upper limits on Ξ* production cross sections, as well as reaction cross sections for those final states in which Ξ*'s may be observed, are presented. In particular, an upper limit of 5.4 μb is placed on production of an isospin-−32 Ξ*−−.

Inspire Record 118843 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24494

Evidence is presented for production of Ξ* resonances, decaying into Ξπ, Ξ(1530)π, ΛK¯, and ΣK¯, in K−p interactions at 2.87 Gev/c. The data represent final combined results from a 30-events/μb hydrogen exposure and an 18-events/μb exposure in deuterium designed to study Ξ* production in the mass interval 1.46-2.07 GeV/c2. In addition to Ξ(1820) and Ξ(1940), signals have been observed at masses of 1630 MeV/c2 and 1860 MeV/c2 decaying into Ξ−π+ and YK¯, respectively. Reaction cross sections have been measured for all final states containing two visible signs of strangeness, and for the final states ΛK−K+ and Σ0K−K+.

A Search for Longlived Neutral Heavy Leptons in 400 GeV/c Proton Interactions

Bechis, D.J. ; Chang, C.Y. ; Dombeck, T.W. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 602-604, 1978.
Inspire Record 6478 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.37888

We report a null search for neutral heavy leptons produced unaccompanied by muons in 400-GeV/c proton-nucleon collisions in a magnetized beam dump and decaying in vacuum downstream. The upper limit on σB for L0's with Feynman x≳0.2 and θlab≲10 mrad with branching ratio B into two charged particles is σB≲2.8×10−35 cm2/nucleon at the 90% confidence level for masses below 1.0 GeV/c2 and lifetimes between 10−10 and 10−8 sec.

Measurement of the Relative Total Hadronic Cross-section R at {PETRA}

The Aachen-DESY-Annecy(LAPP)-MIT-NIKHEF-Beijing collaboration Barber, D. ; Becker, U. ; Boehm, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 42 (1979) 1113, 1979.
Inspire Record 140059 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3235

We report the first measurement of the ratio R=(σe+e−→hadrons)(σe+e−→μ+μ−) (with negligible τ-lepton contribution) at a center-of-mass energy s=13 GeV and s=17 GeV, from the just finished electron-positron colliding-beam facility PETRA. The detector, MARK-J, has an approximately 4π solid angle and measures γ, e, μ, and charged and neutral hadrons simultaneously. Our results yield R(s=17 GeV)=4.9±0.6 (statistical) ±0.7 (systematic error), and R(s=13 GeV)=4.6±0.5 (statistical) ±0.7 (systematic error). The ratio R(s=17 GeV)R(s=13 GeV) is 1.08±0.18.

INCLUSIVE PRODUCTION OF K*+- (890) AND SIGMA+- (1385) RESONANCES IN ANTI-P P INTERACTIONS AT 14.75-GEV/C

Canter, J. ; Chang, C.C ; Dao, F.T. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 20 (1979) 1029-1036, 1979.
Inspire Record 144992 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24210

The inclusive and semi-inclusive cross sections for K*±(890) and Σ±(1385) resonances are determined in p¯p interactions at 14.75 GeV/c. They account for a large fraction of the KS0 and Λ0 produced. The K*-resonance production also affects the low-pT2 distribution of inclusive KS0. The x distributions of the resonance production are studied in terms of a simple quark-recombination model.

Cross-Sections and Event Topologies in e+ e- Annihilation at 13-GeV and 17-GeV Observed with the PLUTO Detector

Phys.Lett.B 81 (1979) 410-415, 1979.
Inspire Record 140294 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.45239

First results from the magnetic detector PLUTO at the new e + e − storage ring PETRA are shown. The ratio R of the cross section for hadron production to that for μ-pair production has been measured to be R = 5.0 ± 0.5 at 13 GeV and 4.3 ±0.5 at 17 GeV. Both values have an additional systematic error of 20%. The events show a typical 2-jet structure. The mean transverse momentum approaches a constant value with increasing energy implying a shrinkage of the jet opening angle.

Study of Electron - Positron Collisions at the Highest {PETRA} Energy

We report on the results of the study of e + e − collisions at the highest PETRA energy of √ s = 31.57 GeV, using the 4π sr, electromagnetic and calorimetric detector Mark J. Based on 88 hadron events, and an integrated luminosity of 243 nb −1 we obtain R = σ (e + e − → hadrons)/ σ (e + e − → μ + μ − ) = 4.0 ± 0.5 (statistical) ± 6 (systematic). The R value, the measured thrust distribution and average spherocity show no evidence for the production of new quark flavors.

This paper reports on the first results of the study of e+e− collisions at s=27.4 GeV and s=27.7 GeV at PETRA, using the 4π-sr electromagnetic and calorimetric detector MARK-J. We obtain an average R=σ(e+e−→hadrons)σ(e+e−→μ+μ−)=3.8±0.3 (statistical)±0.6 (systematic) and a relative R=1.0±0.2 between the two energies. The R values, the measured thrust distribution, and average spherocity show no evidence for the production of new quark flavors.

A Test of Universality of Charged Leptons

Inspire Record 142012 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20759

Measurements of the reactions e++e−→e++e−, μ++μ−, and τ++τ− at PETRA energies (s12=13,17,27.4,30 and 31.6 GeV) are reported. The results show that these reactions agree well with the predictions of quantum electrodynamics thus determining that all the known charged leptons are pointlike particles to a distance < × 10−16 cm.
