Neutron Total Cross-Sections on Nuclei at Fermilab Energies

Ramana Murthy, P.V. ; Ayre, Cyril A. ; Gustafson, H.Richard ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 92 (1975) 269-308, 1975.
Inspire Record 2076 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.32056

We have measured total cross sections for neutrons on protons, deuteriom, beryllium, carbon, aluminium, iron, copper, cadmium, tungsten, lead, and uranium for momenta between 30 and 300 GeV/ c . The measurements were carried out in a small-angle neutral beam at Fermilab. Typical accuracy of the data is 0.5 to 1%. The cross sections are consistent with an A 0.77±0.01 dependence over the entire momentum range. The cross sections are compared with theoretical predictions. Agreement is found only if inelastic screening is included. Nuclear radii obtained from our data are in good agreement with previous determinations.

Inclusive Single Particle Production at 90-Degrees in the Center-Of-Mass System for Nuclear Targets and 28.5-GeV/c Incident Protons

Becker, U. ; Burger, J. ; Chen, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 37 (1976) 1731-1734, 1976.
Inspire Record 115394 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21074

The invariant cross section for the inclusive production of π+, π−, K+, K−, p, and p¯ is presented for proton-nucleon interactions at plab=28.5 GeV/c. Beryllium, titanium, and tungsten targets were used and the yields were extrapolated to A=1 using the power law σ∼Aα. The exponent α increases with pT, except for protons. The pT dependence of the cross sections is compared with a simple fireball model.

The European Muon collaboration Aubert, J.J. ; Bassompierre, G. ; Becks, K.H. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 89 (1980) 267-270, 1980.

Virtual photoproduction of J/ ψ mesons has been measured for 280 GeV muon iron interactions in an iron/scintillator calorimeter target. The J/ψ's were identified by their decay into muon pairs. 315 events were observed, about half of which were elastic. The t , Q 2 and v distributions of these elastic events are presented. The v dependence is measured between 40 and 180 Mev and compared with lower energy photoproduction results. The Q 2 dependence is compared with the predictions of the vector dominance model.

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

Abramowicz, H. ; de Groot, J.G.H. ; Knobloch, J. ; et al.
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.

Study of the A-dependence of Inclusive $p$, $\bar{p}$, $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ Production in $\pi^\pm$ Nucleus Interactions at 30-{GeV}/$c$

The CERN-Lisbon-Neuchatel-Paris-Warsaw collaboration Abreu, M.G. ; Armstrong, T. ; Baubillier, M. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 25 (1984) 115, 1984.
Inspire Record 200776 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.16301

We present the first results on the production of fast (p>10 GeV/c)p,\(\bar p\), Λ and\(\bar \Lambda \) from π± hydrogen and nucleus interactions at 30 GeV/c using the CERN Ω′ spectrometer. We have used five nuclear targets (C, Al, Cu, Sn, Pb) to study theA-dependence of the inclusive particle distributions in the region 0.3<xF<0.6. The high statistical level of our experiment allows us to demonstrate the differentA-behaviour of baryon and antibaryon inclusive reactions. We relate this difference to the final state interaction inside a nucleus using the formation-zone model.

Measurement of $\nu$ and $\bar{\nu}$ structure functions in hydrogen and iron

Abramowicz, H. ; Hansl-Kozanecka, T. ; May, J. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 25 (1984) 29-43, 1984.
Inspire Record 201386 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.49653

The CDHS neutrino detector has been used to measure events originating in a tank of liquid hydrogen and in the iron of the detector. Total cross-sections, differential cross-sections, and structure functions are given for hydrogen and compared with those in iron. The measurements are in agreement with the expectations of the quark parton model. No significant differences indicative of nuclear binding effects in corresponding structure functions of protons and iron are observed. This may be of special interest in the case of the sea structure functions, since large differences are expected in some models.

Measurement of Total Cross-sections for Neutrino and Anti-neutrino Charged Current Interactions in Hydrogen and Neon

The BEBC WA21 & BEBC WA59 collaborations Aderholz, M. ; Corrigan, G. ; Hoffmann, E. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 173 (1986) 211, 1986.
Inspire Record 227412 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30261

BEBC filled in turn with hydrogen, and with a neon-hydrogen mixture, was exposed to the CERN SPS wide band neutrino and antineutrino beams. The ratios of the charged-current cross sections per nucleon, σ(νH 2 ) σ(ν Ne ) and σ( ν H 2 ) σ( ν Ne ) , between 20 and 300 GeV were found to be 0.656 ± 0.020 and 1.425 ± 0.052, respectively. Multiplying these ratios by the revised cross sections in neon, σ(ν Ne ) E = (0.723 ± 0.038) × 10 −38 cm 2 / GeV per nucleon and σ( ν Ne ) E = (0.351 ± 0.019) × 10 −38 cm 2 / GeV per nucleon, and their ratio, σ( ν Ne ) σ(ν Ne ) = 0.485 ± 0.020 ,, yields values for the total charged-current cross sections on protons, σ(νp)/ E and σ( ν p ) E , of (0.474 ± 0.029) × 10 −38 cm 2 /GeV and (0.500 ± 0.032) × 10 −38 cm 2 /GeV. respectively, and a value for the ratio σ( ν p ) σ(ν p ) of 1.053 ± 0.066.

Charm Production in Deep Inelastic Muon - Iron Interactions at 200-{GeV}/$c$

The European Muon collaboration Arneodo, M. ; Aubert, J.J. ; Bassompierre, G. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 35 (1987) 1, 1987.
Inspire Record 230629 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15765

Dimuon and trimuon events have been studied in deep inelastic muon scattering on an iron target at an incident muon energy of 200 GeV. The events are shown to originate mainly from charm production. Comparison of the measured cross sections with data taken at higher muon energies shows that charm production originates predominantly from transverse virtual photons. Within the framework of the photon gluon fusion model this indicates that the parity of the gluon is odd.

Z.Phys.C 36 (1987) 611, 1987.
Inspire Record 249672 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15697

The cross-section ratio of neutral-current and charged-current semileptonic interactions of muon-neutrinos on isoscalar nuclei has been measured with the result:Rv=0.3093±0.0031 for hadronic energy larger than 4 GeV. From this ratio we determined the electroweak mixing angle sin2θW, wheremc is the charm-quark mass in GeV/c2. Comparison with direct measurements ofmw andmz determines the radiative shift of the intermediate boson mass Δr=0.077±0.025(exp.)±0.038(syst.), in agreement with the prediction. Assuming the validity of the electroweak standard theory we determined ϱ=0.990−0.013(mc−1.5)±0.009(exp.)±0.003(theor.).
